I think all this talk about Christine coming back is so premature. I seriously doubt it will happen (even though it would be a dream come true if she did). Reminds me of all that talk about Sheyl Crow joining (although that was not a dream) a few years back.

I totally agree with someone's comment about prefering to see seeing Christine on a new Fmac album than joining them for some dates on this tour. What's all this BS about not wanting her to record if she's not going to hit the road with them to support it? I recently heard John say this and one of the others said it earlier too (don't remember if it was Lindsey or Mick).

Lastly, I think it's funny how someone will make a comment and change the perception of the real story. I could see how Mick's comment about Crystal could give a new fan the idea that it was that song, and not Frozen Love, that convinced Mick that he wanted That guitar player.


Reminds me of how so many people believe, including Lindsey, that that infamous 1974 call from Mick went directly to the couple. Lindsey often says "they asked me to join but I said you no. Not unless you take both of us" (I'm paraphrasing here). That didn't happen. Mick called Keith Olsen and Keith told Mick that they're a packaged deal. Then Keith called the couple and told them Fleetwood Mac wants BOTH of you to join.

but you know better than Lindsey? were you there?

Keith said in sound city movie that Mick called him about the guitarist and he said "you may have a problem there, he wouldn't join alone" or something like that... this was interspersed scene with Lindsey saying the same story we always heard. either story is probably simplified for the sake of telling it... for all we know Mick called Keith and the Keith called Lindsey, than Lindsey said not without Stevie, than Keith called Mick back and told him about the problem, than Mick called Lindsey, and on and on - see what i'm saying? told in circles like this story doesn't sound nearly as good. so each of them just says "Mick called me"

That was a nightmare, so glad that never happened.
