With Christine gone and John likely retired, Mick playing with either Stevie or Lindsey carries a bit more weight. It becomes the closest thing to Fleetwood Mac we’re likely to get. Kind of like when Ringo sits in with McCartney.

Fleetwood Mac became way for Stevie to stay on the road without over saturating her brand. She doesn’t have that anymore. Adding Mick to her band and swapping in a few Fleetwood Mac songs (Black Magic Woman, Oh Well, Manalishi, Don’t Stop) would be an easy way for her to stay on the road and give people a reason to come to the show. That said, how many more years of touring does she have?

REAL FM fans don't give af about her renditions of FM classics. I can sing them better than she.

Honestly, can you imagine going to see her solo band do these versions of FM songs.

I find them boring when the Rumours 5 does them. Especially, Dreams.

Stevie has an entire catalog of material she hasn't touched on stage in 30 years she could draw from. She doesn't need to do Peter Green era covers. Plus, the tik tok fans don't even know who he is.

There are folks on here that don't know who he is.

Well, Stevie is the lead singer of FM.

I remember when the shippers would come on here and say Christine caused Lindsey and Stevie to hate each other. Especially, when Christine didn't matter anyway.

Yeah, but most of those songs suck.

True, but her voice on anything PG most likely will have me hang myself right there in the audience.

Can you IMAGINE a show with no backup singers or track vocals?

That'd be some Linda McCartney sh*t right there!

Imagine if this was Billy/Stevie or Swift, or even FMac.

Waddy, drummer, and bassist, okay.

But Waddy, drummer, bassist, two keyboardists, another guitarist, stacks of computer chips, three dancing girls, and a backdrop of pre-Raphaelite models and flying birdies?
