I love you.

Mick is TRASH.

Mick and Stevie seem like the only two left who’d ever want to be on a stage together again. I wouldn’t be surprised if they do a tour as “Fleetwood Nicks” sometime in the next couple of years.

ETA: I could see John and Lindsey coming back if they do a one-time tribute show for Christine, but that’s it.

Featuring the vocals of her backup choral group almost exclusively.

What a sad way for the band of my life to end.

I could see them getting someone like Colbie Caillat to sing Christine’s songs. Deep, somewhat honey-tinged voice and has a connection to the band. I could also see them having Donald Fagan come in on keyboards, which Christine would most definitely approve of.

The only reason to me to bring Colbie in would be that she may have met Christine being Ken's child. They could have Sheryl Crow come in too since she inducted the band into the Rock Hall and she plays keys.

I think the right thing to do would be to have Bekka come back and sing Chris' songs.

But would the guitarists be Mike and Neil?

But who is going to sing Stevie's? Oh yeah, her girls. Just like the past 25 years.

Actually, Stevie's bassist sings with "The Girls" now too!

Neil Finn rule. Sheryl Crow = Steve Winwood; Bekka Bramlett = Billy Burnette. Colbie only has a couple of hits, her last name is heavily associated with some of Fleetwood Mac’s most critical works, and her husky, understated voice is much better suited for Christine’s songs than either Sheryl or Bekka.

I love Bekka, but she was so radically different from Christine and Stevie that she was able to sing both of their songs and be the only woman in the band. However, I don’t think her soul shouting would compliment Stevie and Lindsey/Neil.

Unless Stevie and Irving can bury the hatchet with Lindsey. Last we heard, that wasn’t optimistic. Then again, $$$$$.

I agree. John seems to be pretty much done. I don't think he wants to do it anymore. Like you said, maybe for a one time tribute. I suggest Yvon Elliman to sing Christine's songs. I think she could pull it off. But Azoff and friends (Mick, Stevie) might not agree with that because she's not a big name.

I'm sure they know Yvonne. She was one of Eric Clapton's backup singers in the '70s before Saturday Night Fever.

The more, the merrier, when you no longer have range.

They should just let it die. PLEASE, just let it die. It's over, Mick, it's over.

It’s not necessarily just Mick, it’s also Irving and Stevie.

Mick likes the money and could always use the work. Irving now has the chance to really remake Fleetwood Mac into his own image, and Stevie benefits from having the band to fall back on. Maybe they’ll have integrity, but it depends on $$$$$.

Harry Styles is part of Azoff's Management. But I think Harry joining FM would be him doing a favor for them.

But it seems it's over now. Stevie is co-headlining football stadiums with Billy Joel. Even though there are tons of tickets available for some shows, she doesn't need Fleetwood Mac now.

I agree…the fact is, Stevie has not “needed” Fleetwood Mac since 1982.
