I said years ago there would be a Fleetwood Mac reunion tour someday. I haven't given up on that, despite what Stevie and Mick have said.

I think Rhino is going to give us Buckingham Nicks on CD, at long last.

The CD could contain all sorts of things. I remember Lindsey and Stevie talking about what a CD might contain. Lindsey said he would like to make some modifications, and Stevie preferred to release the album as it was recorded in 1973. A big CD package could include the untouched 1973 album on one disk and new versions or never-released songs (“Sorcerer,” “Candlebright,” “Without You,” “Baby, It’s True,” “Going Home”) on the other disk.

In terms of live appearances, there’s something sort of weird in putting out something that shows you in your glorious youth and then trying to re-create it at age 80. The odds are stacked against you.

I think a BN re-release is almost certain given the PR they are rolling out. I'm not sure about a tour, but Mick being a part of the PR makes me think there will be something he can be involved in like a live show or maybe some sort of documentary where they can all be interviewed separately?

Honestly, after the faux-mance of 1997-2018 and then the gaslighting/litigation/sniping of 2018-present, I don't have much interest in an LB/SN live show. BN is one of the few projects that would entice me to go and see them, even though I suspect my reaction to any between song banter/storytelling would be an eye roll so massive I might fall over from the force.

So predictable. I have been stating this on the message board for years as many insisted that the coffin was nailed shut.
Never again. Never.

Rest assured. Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham will reunite on stage.

There is absolutely nothing that will keep narcissists from seeking the spotlight. Fights, feuds, disagreements — nothing.

If you go forward…..I’ll meet you there.
Oh, I know you will, honey. Told ya.

I haven't been able to get on here til today but was wondering if anyone would start a thread on this.

The first bits of everyone freaking coz S&L official accounts started following one another I was like meh.

Then the video of Mick playing Frozen Love I was like ok something's deffo up.

Then the quotes from the lyrics, which I first saw on Lindsey's social media and learned from people's comments that she had also posted a lyric....

WTAF is going on here.

Now, in addition to a re release of the album, which seems real, there's another rumor going around-- someone has been following court filings and such and reports that Lindsey and his wife were supposed to have a court hearing (presumably about divorce) this summer, but which has been now postponed until October of this year. Lots of speculation that whatever was going to happen with the BN stuff [or FM stuff or whatever was clearly coming because it wasn't entirely clear at first if they were all dropping hints about BN album or FM reunion or what] would happen after the court case. The realllllly out-there shippers are dreaming that he and his wife are finally going to go through with a divorce, the BN album will come out, and S&L will finally end up in each other's arms at last.......

I agree with whoever (David?) said that two almost 80 year olds going out and trying to recreate music they made at 23 or whatever is just..... Aside from the ick of it, (especially given the nastiness of Lindsey's firing) neither of them can perform vocally the way they did then, and it would just sound.... Case in point, go listen to their remake of Without You. Absolutely gross.

Question: Will he appear onstage with her at any of her shows???

There's no way Stevie is going to work with or co-release music/perform together onstage with a person she's called useless and not in good health.

You also have many who say Lindsey can't sing or play live and that he lip syncs.

There's no benefit to Stevie to doing anything with Lindsey. She's touring hockey arenas. She doesn't need the Fleetwood Mac name anymore.

This Frozen Love post by her is all in response to Mick's post and that's it, imo.

ok but...why would Mick be posting about Frozen Love at all?? Sure, that got them (in a way) into FM, but if there's a re release of the white album, why promote the BN album??

S&L (especially her) don't know the ins and outs of social media, but their teams certainly do. The following each other stuff was so obviously intentional PR.... for what? How would that matter, really, to promote a remixed/rerelease of the white album?? It would sure stir up excitement about at BN re-release though.

I don't know if they would perform together again period let alone without the buffer of the rest of the remaining members of the band (and I'd be against it) but can totally see the album remaster and release, because jeebus how many DECADES have they been asked about that in interviews? I think they both know if they don't do it while they are alive, someone will absolutely do it after one or both of them is dead. Neither will want the other to have that kind of control so...... time has played its card.

Having the buffer of FM members Mick, John, and Christine (starting in 2014) didn’t even get her to make an album with them since they started trying in 2008.

I think Mick just made the post about Frozen Love because it was his hearing that song that brought about The White Album lineup and there’s a 50th Anniversary reissue of said album coming out.

Where there’s smoke there’s fire.

The bad would sell out the Grand Canyon for a good bye show…and they all know it.

So am I.....!

Message to Rhino:

Please only highlight/enhance, not alter Stevie's original vocals in any way!

The remaster seems pretty certain to me....

but.....a FM tour?

First, it's highly doubtful John would ever tour again. Is it really FM if the Mac isn't there?? Not for me it isn't. Would this stop the others from doing a cash grab tour? Never. The greed is strong with this bunch.

So, ok, that leaves the remaining 3 little piggies:

1) We KNOW Mick would do it in a heartbeat No further discussion required on that.

2) Years ago, I would have followed this by saying that Stevie would do it but Lindsey would be the holdout. NOW, however, sadly, it's Lindsey who would be the second one to sign on for it. You know, to 'come full circle' and 'fulfill their destiny' and to 'respect the legacy we've spent 50 years building' and 'honor the body of work' and blah blah blah.......

3) Which brings us to Stevie who has SWORN she will never, ever be onstage again with Lindsey, and she's given him '80 million gazillion chances' and she's just "done" and.... as noted she can sell plenty of tickets and get plenty of media coverage all by herself, thankyouverymuch and don't forget to curtsey on your way out.

That said, Mama does love her some money....and though you'd think she sure as shootin' would have more than enough to die with by now and leave her nearest and dearest set for life, enough is really never enough for her. Touring is where the big bucks are....think of how much (some) people would pay to see that tour..... And she does have a mega powerful team on her side that would knuckle the other knuckleheads under for every extra dime to ensure she gets the most along with all the other perks.....and a tour would soooooooooooooooo be the talk of the town which she loves.

Which is to say...is there a universe in which she would agree to do it? Yes.
Will that universe be the one in which we all currently live? I'm thinking no.

As for an album, that is a total non-negotiable NO from her

god, please just let it be the re-release of BN.

Let FM die. It's over, especially if there's not a McVie in the band.
