Then, after the inauguration she said it looked like they wouldn't be getting back together, as if she had held out hope that they might, but it never came to fruition. In 1992 when asked if she would return to FM she said,

It isn't even up to me. It's really up to whether the rest of the people in Fleetwood Mac could gather. I'm pretty easy. If Lindsey and Chris and John and Mick sat here and said "We're going to do an album next year and we'd like to know if you would like to do it with us." I think my answer would probably be "well, of course, how could I not?" But, if it goes from manager to manager and phone call to phone call and lies and stupid things being said about everything that's going on that really isn't happening, then I might say no. But if they came to me in the right way and just sat there and said "we want to do this and we really want you to do it with us," then what could I say except yes just based on the love, caring and time that we have spent together.

Then in 1994 she said she'd consider going back to FM if she got a friendly, hopeful vibe from Lindsey, "which usually isn't there."

So, I think she would have done it in 1992

OOTC had only recently come out at the time, which is why I said he could have used the inauguration to help promote it, but he didn't. He didn't start working on GOS until several years later.
