STEVIE NICKS WON'T REUNITE WITH FLEETWOOD MAC

Singer STEVIE NICKS is refusing to reunite with her former FLEETWOOD MAC bandmates, unless fellow vocalist CHRISTINE MCVIE also returns. The American star last recorded with her former bandmates on 2003's Say You Will album, but has since resisted offers to go on the road with them again, unless MCVie - who quit the group in 1998 - is on board with the reunion. She says, "I don't like it as the boys' club. We could make millions and millions of dollars touring again. But I just don't know if I want to go again without Chris."

AND YOU KNOW WHAT I HAVE TO SAY TO THAT!

I am not liking Stevie's rhetoric lately (i.e. towards Lindsey). She obviously was not happy during the 2002-2004 era and is now feeling the need to tell the world about it. I really don't know what she expects to gain from this new tough-love attitude. If *I* was Lindsey and read these recent quotes I'd say "f*ck you" and never reunite with her again....Just my view. My concerned view, I should say.

It's just a big ole excuse. Honestly Stevie just be truthful about it: you and Lindsey don't get on and you're not the only star in the Mac roadshow and have to make compromises you don't like. This Christine excuse is wearing thin.

That headline and the other headlines that have been making the rounds are the ones about:

- Stevie Nicks: Klonopin 'stole my forties'

- Nicks Spent Millions on Cocaine

All excerpts from the Telegraph article

Where's the "Nicks doesn't know own house number" headline?

well, I repeat, record your solo-album with the petshopboys and let the guys go on as a threepiece-Mac, rocking the cement out of the walls. I'll be there.

But there are some things I take with a very large grain of salt.

She will be on tour with them again soon--as a foursome, and Christine will be happily gardening in England, and all the press will be about how everyone is, again, respecting Christine's wishes and hoping she's growing some really nice produce.

I don't buy this "I won't do it without Christine" bit for one second.

I don't think it's really an excuse...why would she have to make up an excuse? but what compromises does she not like...I haven't heard of any specifically.

i believe and respect stevie's feelings but do you possibly think that maybe this is partly a plan to put more pressure on christine to come back?

RockALittle250 · #11 09-10-2007, 07:59 PM

I think Stevie knows the possibility of Christine coming out of retirement is slim to none. When it's over...it's over...now they can focus on their own solo endevours.

I hope Stevie sticks to her words because frankly I don't care to see the Mac without Christine.

So if she isn't going to tour with them, she needs to be recording some new music!

I could not agree more. But I think that it's the same when Lindsey left. It wasn't FM without him (both Stevie and Chris said as much) and it's not FM without Chris. It's Buckingham Nicks with a kick ass rhythm section and the Brand Name. But it's definitely not FM.

Stevie has also said the SYW was Lindsey's vision not the rest of the band's. She was not happy on tour (that may also be due to the fact that went through a difficult menopause.) But she missed her friend and somebody to hang with. The guys had their wives and girlfriends. I'm guessing Stevie either hung out by herself or with Sharon and Jana on SYW. But it just must not have been the same because this woman loves touring. That's all she's done her entire adult life. I only hope like all of you that she does then decide to create some new stuff on her own.

I don't find it hard to believe she feels this way at all. I'm not saying she'll stick with it (those dollar signs can be pretty alluring, I'd imagine) but I believe she genuinely feels the way she says she does.
