Don’t forget she has the start of an album with “Vampire’s Wife”. It’s in the top five with Show Them The Way, Soldier’s Angel, Edge of Seventeen, and Stand Back.

Coincided with the B/N re-release and the Rhiannon film.

I don't know if this was discussed before, but I wonder if Mick or anybody related to the band has thought about creating a Broadway musical based in Rumours (or more FM songs). Rumours songs fit perfect for a story; not necessarily the history of the band, but a fiction like Mamma Mia or We Will Rock You. Though probably it wouldn't be a piece of art, but I thought in Mick cause he's always thinking in ways to earn money.

I always thought a Las Vegas show like The Beatles “Love” show would be great.

Oh yes a Cirque du Soleil show is a great idea.

I've always thought SOMEONE must be thinking about this and hitting them up about doing it.... I just assumed since they can never all agree about anything that some want to do it (mick) and some don't (Lindsey) and some only will do it if they get the final vote on how to tell the story (Stevie, Lindsey)

Mama would NEVER sign off on someone telling the truth about her. Face it, it's ugly. Drugs, sex, and those 4 babies.

Mamma Mia, the most succesful musical based in pop or rock songs, is a fictional story, has nothing to do with Abba history. I think a fictional plot would make an FM musical more possible.

For the Fleetwood Mac history a mini serie would be great. But yes it would be difficult for all of them to agree.

Has anyone heard about the Broadway show Stereophonic? It's about Fleetwood Mac making Rumours. It won several Tony Awards this year

Yes, I saw that. Very interesting.

Thanks for the info, I didn't know about it. I admit at first I thought it was a sarcastic post . But it's true. Wall Street Journey and other articles mention it's based in Fleetwood Mac. There's the drummer, the married couple bassist and keyboardist/vocalist, and partners guitarist/vocalist and vocalist/tambourinist. Isn't that weird?

Songs are different, of course, written by Will Butler.

Wow you're really keen.

Either that or really sarcastic.

I can't tell

I hate how she never owns her words or actions. This interview is nothing more than a deflection of her choices which by statement analysis she is no longer comfortable with. She is using Chris's death and Lindsey's 2018 heart issue to gloss over the past and it gives her cover not to commit to her words and actions of the past.

Is she so ignorant to not know that Lindsey did a world tour post Covid and kept going with deaths of band members, Covid issues, etc. Yet Lindsey kept going. But Stevie says Lindsey is not healthy enough to tour. Can you imagine what Lindsey thinks of this? Lindsey plays his heart out every night on his tours. He is drenched with sweat. He plays an instrument and his set is almost twice as long as hers. She is so insulting. Its like when she told Chris to get a trainer before going on the road. She's really something.

Dr. Nicks really lives in a bubble.
Agreed. Clearly she feels ashamed for ousting Lindsey and trashing the legacy of "her" band (it's actually owned by Mick and John last time we all checked).

I just SINCERELY hope on balance, Lindsey realises even if she decides to offer the olive branch of a one off Say You Will lineup reunion, it's not in his best interests to accept the offer. Have some integrity.
