and if she does answer it ... that it will save them from a huge announcement /doing a press conference / tv / Magazine interviews etc

I think they want a big announcement, though. So, I doubt Stevie could confirm officially. I would think they'd play it close to the vest.

^^^ That's a good point. They may be waiting for a press conf.

I agree. I am guessing the band's managers are busy behind the scenes orchestrating this whole thing. First, they need to get any currently booked performances/appearances from the present incarnation of Fleetwood Mac out of the way. So that puts any sort of official announcement from the band into mid January at the very earliest (remember, they have a January 8 corporate gig). If the band decides to rebook it's Australia/New Zealand dates, this could get pushed back even further, though.

I'm not so sure Fleetwood Mac could go straight back into the markets they've just toured in, and get good ticket sales, though. Even with Christine's return, it's probably just too soon. So I'm guessing touring with Christine in 2014 is not a likely scenario. Hopefully Fleetwood Mac will spend 2014 working on an album... but I have my doubts. We'll see.

Well this news, if it comes to pass, is thrilling I must say! Though I have not posted here regularly for over 10 years…wow, maybe 13 years, I sure remember all the excitement before the Dance was released with the prospects of them getting all back together.

Back when the Ledge was just one board and we all sat listening to the live broadcast of what became the Dance DVD

That being said, I actually completely understand Mr. Buckingham’s position. I don’t think it was meant as a slight to Ms. McVie but just want they said it was, they didn't want it over shadowing all the work they have done. Simple as that.

But it is amazing how much vitriol can be sprayed for Mr. Buckingham stance. I truly believe he thinks he is doing what is best for the band as a whole
As a fan of all members of this band I really look forward to this if it happens, and if not I will continue to enjoy them in their own separate projects and anything they do in the future together.

It is rather nice to still see some familiar users posting on this board and I look forward to reconnecting with some old friends.

Now that must have been exciting to watch such a momentous event, posting with other fans at the same time.

Hi Michele,
Oh we couldn't watch it, if memory serves it was a radio broadcast cast from the night the show was filmed but I could be mistaken on when it was broadcast.
But yes, it was very exciting, something I hope we all get to experience again.

If I remember correctly it was a tv simulcast. I remember posting during that time. I think I first discovered the ledge in 1995. So there was buildup to the events. In fact, people were going crazy!!

Jbrownsjr, I remember those days

good times, so much fun.
