The second US leg that goes thru 6/30 was negotiated and agreed upon only recently. Somebody in the band tweeted 6/30 as the end date as well. I can't remember who. I will be shocked if the tour extends beyond that but things can change. I still doubt it. I certainly don't think Stevie meant they were going into 2016. Rehearsals started in July, the tour ends 6/30. That is a year with FM.

They are in Europe May and June. If 30th June is the very end then there will be no tour of Aus/NZ. I really can't see that happening. I don't think Stevie would do that to their fans down under.

Would like to see them break to finish the album. However, they can take as much time off as they want, but if Stevie doesn't want an album they can take all the time off they want- it still would never get finished. If they break on 30th June then it seems increasingly likely Stevie will go off and tour on her own (nice having you back Chris).

They should head to Aus and NZ at the first of the year and Europe after that and wrap it up here in the states in June or July with a summer tour.And they go their merry way or record after its over.

I dont see any sense of releasing a new album after the fact of touring is over.

Maybe it was logistics and scheduling conflicts that made it the way they plan this tour.

Just a thought...
The US leg is currently scheduled to finish at the end of March. They will be in Europe in May. If Stevie somehow agreed to get on board for an album could that one month April window not be used to knock out three Stevie Nicks songs + backing vocals for the already completed Buckingham/McVie material?

Why have they set aside a one month break anyway? If the tour is genuinely going to finish at the end of June, why would they need a one month recuperation break before a two month European leg?

I have to look at it this way.We are lucky that Chris back on the road with them on this tour.Which thought it never happen .The new album is a bonus.

Not for me. I won't be seeing them on tour due to limited availability and ticket prices I can't afford. A $10 cd however would be in my budget and would also last forever. It's nice that they're enjoying the road and people get to see that, but for me it doesn't change anything. If they don't put out a new album this reunion will have been a waste, as far as I'm concerned.

Yes it hurts the wallet big-time. I cut back very much this time around do the the inflated tix prices also I drop down to the cheap seats this time around and plus the timing of having a winter tour put a damper on traveling for me.I'm not fond of driving on ice and snow to the show and back.I hate winter tours .

I got one show in already for this year and one show on the next leg in February.So far thats 1 show a year compared to 4 or 5 plus.

If FM pulls a Garth Brooks and sell tix cheap like him or other band or artists. They would get more fans like us keep coming back every night to the shows.We wont see that happen.

Nevermind the price gouging concession stands.Freaking $8 bucks for a beer .$4 bucks for food.I never eat at the shows. I stop at Wendy's on the way home.

Walmart has the CD's the cheapest and sometime Bestbuy has sales on them.

No, the last US date is Wichita in March. The Europe dates end 6/30 I believe.
