She will be on the road until end of october. So very unlikely. Now if they're thinking about 2026, Mick will have to break his piggy bank, which is probably already empty and shattered.

If Mick is broke he's an even bigger a$$hole than anyone imagined....he just sold his music catalog for bunches of millions (sure, not as much as the writers, but a piece of the FM catalog will carry you for life....) So fork him.

As for BN doing any sort of show(s), big or small, with the likes of Waddy etc.... recall a number of years back now when people were pestering them about re-releasing the album and they each had very different ideas (I think this was that interview where they talked to S&L separately and the reporter was telling Lindsey what Stevie had answered to various questions and got Lindsey's opinion-- Rolling Stone maybe???) anyway Stevie had said like yeah we could release it and then tour with like Waddy Wachtel and stuff... and when the reporter told LB this his response was a classic Lindsey passive-aggressive thing of like trying to sound neutral but making it abundantly clear he thought it was a bad idea...He said something like "Oh? with Waddy Wachtel? Hmmm.....wow....."

So......that was then and this is now, and whether Lindsey is so far over the line in capitulating to Stevie and would give her whatever she wants remains to be seen.

I agree, no tour, no stadiums, I'm not even sure it should be more than one venue. Do a show and record it, like was done for The Dance (which was actually compiled from the best performances over several nights. The same would be necessary for BN, and sadly, probably lots of overdubbing like The Dance as well but oh well.....) Do it in a small, intimate venue. Then put it out as one of those lightning-in-a-bottle, once-in-a-lifetime shows captured forever on film and leave that as the final memory of it.

That is seeing it from the fan's perspective. Mick needs money. He needs some big shows so he can do his meet and greets again

How about: One final time. The Misty Mirage Goodbye tour Fleetwood Mac featuring Stevie Nicks and Sheryl Crow
And YES, Stevie and Lindsey will hug after Landslide and some on this board will comment how authentic it is.

Mick is, seriously, THE BIGGEST LOSER IN THE HISTORY OF MUSIC. What a schmuck.

Was it several nights? I thought it was just two, I remember we figured it out from Christine's different outfits.

I was using several in the sense of more than one.

Sorry, my understanding is too depending on my primary school lessons.

If they want to your they will tour. Why not? It didn't stop them from touring when Christine left in 1998. They did several tours until she was back on board in 2015.
Just saying.....

The only people saying Mick is broke are the haters. There’s nothing to suggest he’s broke in reality. Even with the loss of his restaurant in the wildfires, he had insurance, not to mention selling his catalog.

I totally agree. I very much doubt Mick is broke. I’m sure he has better “people” around him and he has learned from the past. I’m sure he has adjusted is lifestyle over the years.

So like: John handpicked Fed Pol or Al Ortiz (Stevie would get her guy for this)
Thing is, the Stones have consistently toured since 2012 (only missing 2020 because of COVID and 2023, when they were recording a new album), they had been those four since 1993, and, as mentioned, they were working on new music and weren’t planning on ending the band. (The lone silver lining is they brought Bill Wyman back for a couple of final songs with the full lineup.)

That’s why the Oceana situation would have been different than now. They knew Christine was rejoining and that John would be back after his treatments were finished. There was a very bright future ahead for Fleetwood Mac.

Fleetwood Mac doesn’t have a future now. Ending the band without one of its namesakes who was on every album, would be sacrilegious. If Lindsey, Stevie, and Mick need to tour together, just call it Buckingham Nicks. They could have their full circle, wound healing reconciliation and still respect the McVies.

100% agree. The only monkey wrench in this beautiful notion is that these people, have very little respect.

Mick has been cheerleading for a reconciliation between Lindsey and Stevie for quite a while now, that's most likely why he's involved in the latest PR push for what looks to be a BN reissue.

If they do anything live, I agree that it should be billed as a Buckingham Nicks event with guest Mick Fleetwood. Reissuing BN and tacking it onto some sort of Fleetwood Mac tour without John would be a really weird combo. The pessimist in me is still thinking Irving will do everything in his power to make this some sort of FM event.

Jesus take the wheel if that happens. I'll lose my sh*t.
