I just don’t see it. Maybe a one off but even that takes a backing band that they don’t have anymore.

Stevie seems to be doing fine with her lame setlist solo shows. Lindsey enjoys a moderate amount of success with his own shows and has the creative freedom to go out and do whatever he wants including new songs that he isn’t ever going to have in a reformed Fleetwood Mac. The wild card is mick - he will always need money but will he be able to get Stevie on board with what will be an in depth rebuilding of the band including S & L reconciling and agreeing to work together. Do we really think Lindsey will just go along with whatever Stevie demands related to who is in the backing band etc? Will Stevie really sit through rehearsals where Lindsey dissects every note that is being played and challenges what songs should or shouldn’t go in the set? Can Mick make any of that happen?

I don't disagree with anything you say. Lindsey has always held out an olive branch to Mick and the band. I don't understand it yet he's done it and clearly wants to work with them. Mick once said Lindsey was never coming back. Yet now he says it would be wonderful to work with him again because Mick needs him. Age has been against them for awhile now. It would be a sad incarnation and I dont want it to happen. I am just realistic that Stevie will want to close her career in a fake make up with Lindsey. In 1987 Stevie said she would never forgive Lindsey for breaking the chain. She did. Lindsey left swearing never to come back. He did. Stevie quit Fleetwood Mac over Mick's treatment. Yet she came back. Mick lost Chris, Stevie and Lindsey and still went on. Lindsey is still recording and can still play live and sing. Stevie can still tour. I think Mick can still do it and that's all that counts. Mick can only make money with a Stevie/Lindsey tour.
