No. Just a song in the set, probably after the acoustic set, like “Over My Head” in 2014, with Mick on cocktail drums.

Me too. Life’s too short to deal with that lot’s horsesh*t.

with your revolving-door aesthetic and swap-out approach (as if the group’s exquisite chemistry were nothing but a potluck meal).

That’s how Mick and John view the band.
TITN was the first Fleetwood Mac album I bought and that was in early August, 1987. Think of the first decade in my fandom: Lindsey quits, Billy & Rick join, Christine and Stevie retire from touring with the band, Rick and Stevie quit, Billy quits, Bekka and Mason join, Billy rejoins, Mick disbands Fleetwood Mac to go work with Lindsey, and the Rumours lineup reunites. So, I’ve never been married to the idea that the Rumours lineup was the only lineup, and the players were largely interchangeable on some level.
The chemistry that made them great is what drove them apart.
