A funny thing happened at Chicago's Midway Airport last week, we've learned exclusively, when former President Bill Clinton's private jet was soon to take off and Clinton asked who was in another private jet close by on the tarmac. Turned out, the answer was Fleetwood Mac. Well, of course we know what a fan of the Mac the ex-prez is -- having been responsible for the group's reunion for his 1993 inaugural festivities. "Hold the plane,' he directed his pilot, we are told by sources close to the scene -- after which he had a little meet'n'greet with the band. Naturally, Mick Fleetwood, Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham and John McVie were delighted by the visitor. Fleetwood Mac is due to play in Los Angeles this weekend and Anaheim next week.
