Mick Fleetw...@ Nickslive ... you are 100% correct. Mick Fleetwood and John McVie provide the backbone to Fleetwood Mac. Christine McVie, Lindsey Buckingham, and Stevie Nicks each provide their own flavor. It does not matter that Christine has been gone since 1998; the woman retired and then changed her mind. Get over it people and stop comparing her to Stevie; Christine spent three decades in the business before deciding to step back. It does not matter that Stevie has been the most commercially successful solo artist within the Mac. Each member of this timeless band brings something unique to the mix. <br /><br />Instead of trying to tear one another down over opinions we may or may not agree with, let's try to remember we are all Fleetwood Mac fans who want nothing but happiness and success for its members. <br /><br />Oh, and let's also try and remember that civil discourse is productive.MplsMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16559454511654308597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-6385494439416591362014-05-23T14:09:43.656-05:002014-05-23T14:09:43.656-05:00Could we all please stop with the competition comm...Could we all please stop with the competition comments... Each individual is just as important to Fleetwood Mac as the other. Without all of them together we don't have a fully realized Fleetwood Mac. Whether a member is more visible publicly or more successful in their solo career, does not make that member any more important than the other. Some have made comments that won't be posted because they just perpetuate this competition notion between the members.Nickslivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17282314489213778854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-4728433887132341502014-05-23T09:45:07.815-05:002014-05-23T09:45:07.815-05:00Remember, Stevie is the one who wrote their only n...Remember, Stevie is the one who wrote their only number 1 hit. She is an amazing performer, solo or with Fleetwood Mac. Every member of Fleetwood Mac is important. Could they survive without Stevie? Who knows. It still amazes me how Stevie is constantly being bashed, while Christine receives nothing but praise, even though she left the group for years. Why can't people just be happy that they're still making music together and solo.

The Mac would certainly limp without ANY member but Stevie is definitely the "most commercially successful" of any of them, and each member has certainly said the same thing at one time or another. BUT it shouldn't be a war. Facts are facts and we just deal with them. The 'true magic' of Fleetwood Mac lies within them as a whole can't wait to hear EVERYONE'S new projects next year!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05594237679077432665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-44676278452890400462014-05-22T01:02:07.250-05:002014-05-22T01:02:07.250-05:00Totally agree with the Stevie comments without her...Totally agree with the Stevie comments without her the band wouldn't be anywhere near what it is.

She is the only one in the spot light. Yes, Lindsey may have made one appearance squeezed in at the end of an awards show, but that's it. She is a superstar and the center of it all. And LINDSEY got his way with Say You Will, didn't he? He wanted it his way.

Sure she sells more and makes more money touring with Fleetwood Mac. She has always had a larger audience as far as a solo artist. She does not need Fleetwood Mac but they do need her. Even when Lindsey left the band they still played large venues on both Tango and Behind The Mask. Christine left and the Mac was still playing to the masses and even selling out venues last tour. I don't think they could do that without Stevie Nicks. Not because I'm a Stevie Nicks freak but reality is reality. Her solo CD's and Tours outsell any Lindsey or Christine solo albums. But I do agree together they are majic. If we must see another Fleetwood Mac tour after just seeing them last year then I would prefer all three singers involved. Wish Christine would have gotten over all her fears two years ago but everything in its own time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6620511595417365920.post-14570492027418020502014-05-21T22:03:21.528-05:002014-05-21T22:03:21.528-05:00Great interview!

She is constantly on TV and at awards shows and everywhere else promoting something.

Why would people still think they're close? Do you remain close with an ex you had, even five years ago? Probably not. They spend a few months together every few years on tour. What else would they do? Lindsey is married and has children and is constantly working on solo material. Stevie is one of the highly regarded performers in the world. They have very different lives. Stevie is much more commercial and enchanting to watch on stage, so maybe his comments about her do contain some semblance of "venom" - but whatever. Lindsey seems very comfortable in his role with the band. Christine came back - but Stevie already had plans to do a solo album this year and with all of them getting on in years, a big project like a solo album from Stevie Nicks can't just get delayed and pushed back because Fleetwood Mac is ready to go. I'm sure they understand how schedules work. <br /><br />She really does keep them in check at times. They wanted her in 2012 and she said no. She gave them 2013. They needed her in 2014. She said, "I'll see you later in the year." Haha.

What Christine and Lindsey have accomplished will give the band a great head start when they hit the studio next year. Stevie will bring her A-game, several new songs, and we'll get a fantastic album from the Mac. I can't wait to hear the collaboration between Christine and Lindsey, plus all of Christine's new songs. Some of my favorite Mac classics are the Christine/Lindsey vocals - "World Turning," "Don't Stop," and "Hold Me."MplsMikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16559454511654308597noreply@blogger.com
