So he would love it if Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham worked out their shit and did some “healing.”
Sure, you can never break the chain, but sometimes the chain could use a hug and one of those big boxes of Lindt truffles. We learned Mick Fleetwood is due for both, after reading his new interview with Mojo, in which he recapped his life since his Fleetwood Mac soul sister, Christine McVie, died in late 2022. “It’s been a strange time for me,” Fleetwood explained. “Losing sweet Christine was catastrophic. And then, in my world, sort of losing the band too. And I split with my partner as well. I just found myself sort of licking my wounds.” (Fleetwood’s “crazy little restaurant” was also destroyed by the 2023 Maui wildfires.) One thing that’s been unifying for him, though, is maintaining a Swiss-like relationship with Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham, whom he’s optimistic can one day landslide their way into some sort of reconciliation.
“It’s no secret, it’s no title-tattle that there is a brick wall there emotionally. Stevie’s able to speak clearly about how she feels and doesn’t feel, as does Lindsey,” Fleetwood said. “But I’ll say, personally, I would love to see a healing between them — and that doesn’t have to take the shape of a tour, necessarily.” Nicks has been adamant that Fleetwood Mac died as a touring unit alongside McVie, and last time we checked, she and Buckingham were still throwing verbal shawls at each other in the press. But maybe if the duo open their eyes and look at the day, they’ll see things in a different way.
