Christine McVie agreed that Fleetwood Mac's rocky past is equally as captivating as their music.
Christine revealed how the fans are aware of what they would receive while on the band's 2016 reissueof the 1982 album "Mirage" and when they were on their 2016 global tour.
According to the keyboardist-singer, "I think people expect they're going to witness some drama or something on stage," as quoted by Society of Rock.
"Perhaps they'll witness someone beating up someone. Always a little tension is present. Some small item is always present somewhere. But that's a band characteristic.
Christine also attributed their enduring success and unwavering popularity to the fact that they were never considered a "trendy" band. As a result, they are valued more in retrospect, much like the Swedish group Abba.
The "When The Train Comes Back" hitmaker said that Abba would be so uncool before people realized Fleetwood Mac was a great group. Similar to that, we would go dark for five years before returning with a new album and tour.
She also acknowledged how difficult it is to herd all five members of Fleetwood Mac into one space, comparing the endeavor to the nearly impossible process of herding sheep.
The band members' professionalism when it came time to perform a performance, however, overcame any and all turmoil behind the scenes for fans eager to see anything break out on stages, like a fight and everything else, which might also include something ex-lovers Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham would do.
Christine McVie Dead
At the age of 79, Christine McVie passed away on November 30, 2022.
Her family announced in a statement that she passed away "peacefully" at a hospital after a brief illness.
The official cause of death is unclear as of this writing.
In a message that was also published on Christine's social media accounts, members of Fleetwood Mac also paid respect to Christine.
"She was absolutely unique, exceptional, and incredibly gifted."
John McVie, the bassist for the group, and Christine McVie were formerly married. One of the primary inspirations for their most well-known album, "Rumours," which was published in 1977, was the issues in their relationship.
Fleetwood Mac reached its commercial zenith in the 1970s, selling millions of albums and rising to the top of the rock music hierarchy. Fans were riveted by their music as well as the drama that occurred behind the scenes.
Christine left the group in 1998 when it was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, but she came back for a global tour in 2014.
