Fleetwood
Mac's Boy's Club
May
11, 2003 - Stevie Nicks says she misses Christine McVie in Fleetwood
Mac, and calls the latest line up "a boy's club."
McVie quit the band at the end of their comeback "The Dance"
tour in 1998. Though the successful combination that made the
groundbreaking "Rumours" album in 1977 is still intact
with the exception of McVie Nick feels a bit different being
the only lady in the band. The latest Fleetwood Mac album "Say
You Will" does feature Christine McVie but only as a side
musician. The band had considered having her contribute songs
but skip the tour, but they decided against that. Stevie Nicks
says for years they thought they couldn't do another album,
but then they decided its ok because it's not like Fleetwood
Mac hasn't made changes before.
