The only people who said it WASN’T a FM album were Lindsey and Christine, unless you have a link saying otherwise.

Brett said it wasn’t an FM album but should have been.

Did you ever read Stevie’s comments on the album to RollingStone in 2017?

No I didn’t, but is it the comment everyone posts all the time here, something about “not understanding the point” or something like that? That to me doesn’t sound like someone saying it wasn’t a FM album. More like saying “what’s the point of making an album now, period, since albums don’t sell like they used to.”

RollingStone asked her in early 2017 why she wasn't on the upcoming album with Lindsey and Christine or might she still participate. Stevie said I've been on the road since September 2016 (she actually started rehearsal sometime in September 2016, tour started October 25) so I don't get their premise.

She was saying Mick, John, Christine, and Lindsey didn't want to wait till she was available to make an album with her. While in the same interview admitted what you thought she meant by. get their premise, saying she wasn't interested in making another album because there would be arguing and then it wouldn't sell a lot. So she favored going on tour and making lots of money.

So her comment about not getting their premise was her being a snake and not truthful. The public isn't involved like fans on The Ledge so they believed Lindsey didn't wait for Stevie to start a FM album.

The right answer would have been I won't be participating because I am focusing on a solo tour and as I said earlier, I am not committing to making more music with Fleetwood Mac. But she didn't want to look like she wasn't a team player.

John is 50% owner of the Fleetwood Mac name and only missed the first six shows, all of 25 days, knowing it was his band for the taking whenever he was ready. Brunning said the band was upfront about him only being a temp until John joined. So, no, it’s not Fleetwood Mac without John.

You discarded this thread's premise by saying Mick, Stevie, and Lindsey they may do something together but it wont be called Fleetwood Mac.

They already did something together, and it was credited to Stevie Nicks & Lindsey Buckingham, not Fleetwood Mac.

Why do you suppose that was? Fleetwood Mac (Time) was broken up by that point.

If Mick can simply use the name at his and only his discretion, why didn’t he?

It was jealousy. Not in the sense that she wants to be or record with LB. She doesn't. It was frustration over the fact that they made her tour again in 2014. The price tag was UGE.

The fact that he and Christine actually published something and then toured to support it, made her look bad. She's not a band player, she's a diva. I also suspect she was dried up in the writing dept, so there's that too. I mean listen to tone deaf, Show Them The Way.

It makes zero sense for her to begrudge them moving along without her, but it's Chiffon. What can I say? And, what can SHE say? But, "I don't understand the premise..."

The song is 3 years old, hasn't been played live, and she's been on the road since May 2022 - I don't get Stevie's premise.

I don't see Stevie walking away from her current touring model of doing 5-7 shows a month. It allows her to do her legacy Stevie schtick and get the attention that she apparently, desperately craves. She can pay Irving a gazillion dollars and she can walk around patting herself on the back for playing stadiums and arenas on her own. Billy Joel is ending his Madison Square Garden residency, his schedule will be wide open. Plenty of time for the Stevie Nicks & Billy Joel - Dentures and Adventures tour.

Plus, there's no way Lindsey is going to play Free Fallin' and we all know thats a core stipulation of all future performances. I think at this point, even Tom is cringing.

He would, however, be open to play “Walls.”

Yes...he played on "Walls" Has he ever actually made such a comment about it being part of a Fleetwood Mac setlist or are you just initiating the same rabbit hole you enjoy going down every time this topic arises?

How about "End of the Line" Traveling Wilburys.

I have a feeling Irving is negotiating a residency for Stevie at Sphere at Venetian Casino in Vegas. U2's residency is opening there this week and Eagles are supposed to be the next rock act.
