The farewell tour

[secret love]

Let's face it, the On With The Show Tour was Fleetwood Mac's farewell tour. Lindsey isn't coming back. I'm sure they all feel very guilty about how they treated him and I don't doubt for a minute that Stevie would have been absolutely distraught when she heard about Lindsey's surgery. But the bridge has been burned. He ain't coming back.

And this tour is a new band. Sure it's still technically Fleetwood Mac, just like it was Fleetwood Mac in 2003, 2004, 2009 and 2013, without Christine. Just like it was Fleetwood Mac in 1987, 1988 and 1990, without Lindsey, and in 1995, without Lindsey and Stevie. But the Rumours 5 are no more.

We shouldn't mourn the demise of the Rumours 5. We should just be grateful if we got to see them one last time in 2014 or 2015 and that we got one last Fleetwood Mac album... ok... one last "duet album" (pfft, come on, it's Fleetwood Mac by any other name).

Right?
