I will never, ever understand Stevie for doing that. It hurt the band, their legacy and the fan base. And for what? Jealousy, hurt feelings? It's so beyond the norm. I'm so thankful that John got well and Chris came back and the band got to tour and I got to see them one last time. And the Fleetwood Mac album without Stevie. At least we got some new Chris music with Lindsey and Mick and John. I have followed this band since 1975 and it's amazing the journey they have travelled through the years. So crazy at times. Who would have thought?

John didn’t have to tour with them. If he was that unhappy about the line up change, he could have refused. All he had to do was tell his doctor he didn’t feel up to touring after his cancer battle, and he would have been medically excused. Again, if John didn’t want to tour, he wouldn’t have. He did, and I’m glad that he got to tour with Christine one more time.
I think it’s important to point out that our feelings about what the band members do don’t matter. If you’re still angry after five years that Lindsey was fired, go for it. We know he went to one of Stevie’s shows not that long ago, so clearly John isn’t holding any grudges at all.
