No, I don't know. It wasn't nearly as good.

I don’t see how the whole “mini-Mac” thing is the fault of Mick or John.

The back-up singers are Stevie’s; always have been.

Lindsey’s the one who has canned backing vocals and instrumentation at his solo shows (i.e. “Down On Rodeo”), which has made its way into Fleetwood Mac shows (i.e. “Go Insane”). Also, he’s the one who wanted all of the extra musicians.

When the “Time” band toured, they had Mick, John, Billy, Bekka, Dave, and Steve Thoma (who was sitting in for Christine, who was still in the band, just not touring).

When Mick toured with Rick Vito, it was as a warts and all quartet.

It’s Stevie and Lindsey who muddy up the waters with the whole mini-Mac thing. They’re the ones who want the songs to sound just like the record live, not Mick or John.

How do you know that Mick and John are the reasons more BN songs aren't in the set? IIRC, it was John McVie's idea to record "Crystal" on the white album.

Yeah, they COULD, but they WON'T.

In any event, nobody has answered where it stated that whatever might be released would be as Buckingham Nicks.

It'll never happen. There's WAY more money to be made as Fleetwood Mac. If there wasn't, they would have done a "Buckingham Nicks II" album years ago.
