Not yet, but the tour hasn't ended.

I have every confidence that Stevie Nicks would immediately go to Rolling Stone or any other news source that would give her the time of day to go off on Fleetwood Mac if they fired her, regardless of whether or not she was on tour.

She wouldn't have to. The media would be all over it and come to her.

Who cares? Are you kidding? All she has done for the last 30 years is bad mouth Fleetwood Mac. She is a broken record. The world has heard it all before.

I was responding to the comment that we don't even know whether or not Fleetwood Mac has fired Stevie. Oh yes we do!

As so many have said, even an album with her wouldn't sell much these days. The real stakes are the critical reception and media attention. Given the past reviews of the band, it's likely a CM-LB driven FM record will get high praise. And some of that praise will be at the expense of Stevie, along the lines of "without Stevie, the remaining band are able to collaborate more effectively, etc."... That sort of bit.

Whether or not the album would get larger media attention or be widely acknowledged by fans is another matter--and one I don't think CM or LB care much about. Only Mick seems to want to constantly be ruling the airwaves and raking in maximum dough.
