Default What are the odds of one more US tour?

What are the speculations about this being their final tour? There is talk that it is the final tour. There has also been talk that they didn't declare this their final tour so maybe it isn't? I have read John and Lindsey say that it might be, but I also read, surprisingly, that Stevie said this couldn't be their last because they didn't call it their last.


Maybe take a year off then do like 40 shows in the US for a farewell tour. They should probably do it before Christine is 75.

Default Well...

I doubt that this past set of dates was their last in the US. If there is a new album then there will be a tour. On the scale of On With the Show? Probably not. At least not as a single leg. I would love to see a tour of multi-night stands with different setlists each night...but that is highly unlikely. I guess I'm just jealous of the Australians that get to hear Sara and Think About Me. Come back!!!

Stevie's right. Until it's billed as the last go round to maximize profit...it ain't over.

I'm looking forward to the year long 2017 world tour.

I really hope it isn't. It wasn't advertised as the last tour so I hope not. I know John said it might be HIS last tour. I would like to see them one last time in Europe.

And considering both Stevie & Lindsey have a tendency to avoid Europe on their solo tours, the Mac better come back for one last gig.

I take those comments from the band as just ways to drum up media attention. After all, I believe the proof is in the tour name alone; "On With The Show"

Now, if it were called End Of The Show I'd be more inclined to believe it.

Well Barry (who is high up in the FM tree) really
seems to think we've got a big surprise in store.

I totally expect a 2017 tour! They couldn't let the 40th anniversary of Rumours go by (not to mention the 50th anniversary of the band's formation) without milking it somehow, which makes the timing perfect for a tour.
I've already been daydreaming about what the next setlist will be, though it won't be that different from the current one, even if a new album is factored in. I shouldn't get my hopes up, but I'm still hoping they'll perform Hold Me.

2017 would be a good time for a farewell tour and Rumours 40th anniversary tour. Im surprised they didn't acknowledge this tour being the 40th anniversary of the white album and Stevie and Lindsey joining the band. I'm not too concerned with a new album, just another tour. I hope all five stick around for a farewell tour. A small shake up in the set list would be nice too. I wouldn't hold my breath, but they're doing Think About Me, so maybe there's hope for Hold Me on the farewell tour.

I already attended Fleetwood Mac's farewell tour in 1990

I would definitely bet on one more tour to say goodbye and promote their new album. As someone else pointed out 2017 is perfect 40 years anniversary of Rumours. But no way a huge tour like on with the show. John is my only concern. I hope he continues to full cancer recovery. I don't think they would go on without John.

God it would be ironic, wouldn't it, for the farewell tour to be called On With the Show!!!

Anyway in my opinion, the odds on another Fleetwood Mac tour after the current one are

Another Tour $1.25
2015 tour is their farewell $15

Come on, you would be crazy to bet on this tour being their last. Think about it, the only band member who is completely disinterested in releasing a new Fleetwood Mac studio album... Is also the only member who is absolutely resolute that there MUST be another tour after this one.

Ah Stevie Nicks would make me cry if she didn't make me laugh.

I hope that Stevie realises that her contribution to the Carnival Begin Album (may as well give a name to Linds and Chris's batch of songs from 2014)....Stevie making her standard contribution of just 3 or 4 new songs...would mean she gets her wish for a farewell tour in support of the new album and as a last stand for this great band!
