She seemed enthusiastic about what became Time during the Inauguration interview, but that’s when they were a four piece with Billy. It wasn’t until Dave Mason came along that she wasn’t happy. As for when her songs were recorded, I’d be willing to bet that those were the demos they did in early 1993 (if not earlier), since Billy was involved with “I Do.”



Slight correction: It was only billed as the last tour with Christine and Stevie. Fleetwood Mac planned to continue with just the guys, with Christine and Stevie still recording with them. However, I recently saw an interview with Mick on YouTube from that time, and even he appreciated how ridiculous it sounded.



If it’s the one I’m thinking of, there’s a moment when she’s talking about Mick and John and just kind freezes for a second, like it’s hitting her that she’s not with them anymore.

I think what probably sent Christine over the edge in Kent was that dispute she got into with her neighbors, when paparazzi took pictures of her walking her dogs without any makeup. That was in March, 2010. In March, 2012, Ken said Christine told him his book restored her passion for the music. In March, 2013, she was flying to Hawaii with Mick. And, in March, 2014, she appeared with Fleetwood Mac on the Today show to officially announce her return.
Slight correction.
When the band regrouped after taking several months off because of Chris's father, the tour was rebranded "The Farewell Tour." My concert T-shirt said that too. It was announced Chris and Stevie were no longer touring with the band. Yes we know the band went on without them but I am not the one that named it the Farewell Tour. The band did. All or most of the cancelled dates were made up. It was even advertised in the newspaper and announced on the radio it was the Farewell Tour. There was no opening act like on the BTM tour.
