Mick Fleetwood has revealed he plans to make music with Lindsey Buckingham again and also suggested a potential Fleetwood Mac reunion tour is possible.
Singer and guitarist Buckingham was fired from the band in April 2018 after having issues with bandmate Stevie Nicks at a benefit concert. However, Fleetwood later resolved his differences with Buckingham, spurred by the death of band’s founding guitarist Peter Green last year.
Speaking to Rolling Stone, Fleetwood was asked whether Buckingham would rejoin Fleetwood Mac for a farewell tour.
“Strange things can happen,” said Fleetwood. “I look at Fleetwood Mac as a huge family. Everyone plays an important role in our history, even someone like [early Seventies] guitarist Bob Welch, who was huge and sometimes gets forgotten. Lindsey’s position in Fleetwood Mac will, for obvious reasons, never be forgotten, as it should never be forgotten.”
“My vision of things happening in the future is really far-reaching,” he continued. “Would I love to think that [reunion] could happen?
Yeah. I’d love to think that all of us could be healed, and also respect the people who are in the band, Neil Finn and Michael Campbell.”
However, a major hurdle in the reunion tour would be the continued estranged relationship between Buckingham and Nicks.
“I can’t speak for the dynamic with Stevie and him,” said Fleetwood. “I don’t even need to protect it. It’s so known that they’re chalk and cheese in so many ways, and yet not.”
