Fleetwood Mac without Christine McVie?
How can they have a tour without her? Is it me or does Lindsey Buckingham look like a tangertine tinted buffoon?

- Stevie Nicks is a goddess! Bu they need CMcVie for that Songbird tune nobody sings it like her
- Fie!
- Fuck news? Ugh.
- Mac fans might get their wish for a full reunion this year after all...

Oh%2C%20Daddy%21
- I was the artistic essence of that particular band.
Christine, sipping a crisp pinot grigio
- What kind of idiot links to Fox News?
Stop giving them hits.
- Christine was the bomb. Should have been a bigger solo act than she was.

- I'm pretty sure they've toured without her in the past, so why not?
- Is Stevie really a witch?
- R8, she left the band 15 years ago. They have done multiple tours without her as well as a studio album.
- Christine never really added anything to the band anyway. FM was primarily a vehicle for showcasing Stevie Nicks and Lindsay Buckingham's talents.
- R6 - I get my news from multiple outlets with different slants/bias. You can't be truly informed with exposure to only one bias.
- R11, you should listen to FM pre-Nicks and Buckingham. They were major players in the scene, and had many wonderful, creative songs. Much more experimental and interesting than they were after Nicks took over.
- Christine McVie is 70 years old now, has a pile of money and a big fabulous house, and probably just doesn't see the point of going out on a grueling tour and dealing with Stevie and Lindsay's endless bickering at this stage in her life.
- Why in the fuck is the OP linking anything to a faux news site?

That was my first thought too!

You couldn't be more wrong.
- First 45 single I ever bought: Over My Head. Thought it was sung by a dude named Fleetwood Mac. Found out different. Still love listening to Christine McVie.
- Christine was the real thing. So talented!
Stevie Nicks was a shouty-voiced, careening drama queen whose looks blinded everyone to her meager accomplishments. I can't stand "her" songs (worked up by Lindsey) or her blaring pipes.
- so agree. Stevie is nothing but show, and a lucky mediocrity. Christine has the real talent.
- I bought tickets to the Fleetwood Mac concert later this year. I didn't get them to see Christine McVie. You people bashing Stevie obviously prefer the mellow saccharine music of McVie. Had she been with in the tour, I would have thought twice before seeing them, Lindsey and Stevie were the ones that made Rumours the big success it was. The only decent song McVie contributed was "Songbird."
- Eso es como Hall y avena sin John Hall.
- Did the maid just say something?
- Will Stevie Nicks sign shawls you mail to her?
- Love Christine McVie, but there WAS a Fleetwood Mac without Christine, it was the original version of the band: Peter Green, Mick Fleetwood, John McVie, Jeremy Spencer, Danny Kirwan etc.
Check out the recordings of original version of the band, before Buckingham/Nicks, before Bob Welch, well before fame, you actually might enjoy them!
Peter Green wrote "Black Magic Woman" which was a huge hit for Santana, Peter also wrote "Green Manalishi", which Fleetwood did for a few years after Peter left the band.
- r11 christine had the most hits and wrote every one of them.
Over My head
Say you love me
You make loving fun
Don't Stop
Hold Me

- Can't find the other Fleetwood Mac thread.
The gossip on the last page stared to get good. Anymore recent news?
- The shawl was to catch any cocaine before it hit the floor.
- Fleetwood Mac without Christine McVie would be like Charlie's Angels without Shelley Hack...The Brady Bunch without Cousin Oliver...Van Halen without Sammy Hagar...
- At least she was being thoughtful r27.
- "Sugar Daddy" is one of my fave Christine songs. I agree Stevie's overrated, she'd be nowhere without Lindsey - and she probably sounds like shit now.
