Fleetwood Mac's lineup would continue to shuffle, with Buckingham, Nicks and Christine McVie all leaving and rejoining the group at various times. But it's the Rumours-era group that will be in Baltimore tomorrow (minus Christine McVie, who quit touring for good in 1998). This is the group's first tour since 2004, and the first without a new album to promote.
"We've been apart for four years, now we're back together and we're having a blast," says Nicks, who celebrated her 61st birthday last month. "Had we been working every single year for the last four years and we were going out to do yet another tour this year, we would all be going, like, 'Uh, OK.' So this makes it very, very different and we're all excited."
That excitement even extends to the idea of not having any new music to offer, of playing only their greatest hits. The band members say they're excited by the challenge of playing to audiences whose loyalties have stood the test of time. Even more, they say, they're looking forward to playing with and for one another.
