Fleetwood Mac is one of the most iconic and influential bands in the world. The band's discography has inspired countless artists and other bands to form their own, including the Emmy-nominated television show and novel of the same name - "Daisy Jones and The Six."
One of its members, Stevie Nicks, opened up about whether the band will start touring again in the coming future, as some of its original members are still alive.
Fleetwood Mac Tour 2024 Happening?
Speaking to Vulture, Stevie Nicks, one of the band's vocalists and songwriters, confirmed whether a Fleetwood Mac tour would happen in the near future.
Sadly, a Fleetwood Mac Tour won't be happening anytime soon because of Christine McVie's death in 2022.
"When Christine died, I felt like you can't replace her. You just can't. Without her, what is it? You know what I mean?" she explained to the outlet.
Christine McVie's death startled the music industry in 2022. On Nov. 30, 2022, McVie died of a stroke in a hospital at the age of 79.
Nicks, her best friend, has mourned her death at the time.
"A few hours ago I was told that my best friend in the whole world since the first day of 1975, had passed away. I didn't even know she was ill until late Saturday night," Nicks wrote on Instagram. "I wanted to be in London; I wanted to get to London - but we were told to wait."
She then posted an excerpt of a song she wrote for McVie on Instagram.
"See you on the other side, my love. Don't forget me. Always, Stevie," she ended her message.
The band did a tour in 2018, which ran for 88 shows in the United States, Europe, and Oceania. It was their last tour yet, and the last the band was seen with McVie on stage.
Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie Friendship
Elsewhere in the interview with Vulture, Stevie Nicks described her friendship with Christine McVie akin to a soulmate.
"She was like my soul mate, my musical soul mate, and my best friend that I spent more time with than any of my other best friends outside of Fleetwood Mac. Christine was my best friend," she gushed.
According to Nicks, McVie is the person she thinks about when listening to Taylor Swift's "You're On Your Own, Kid," specifically the line "You always have been."
"It was like, that was Christine and I. We were on our own in that band. We always were. We protected each other. Who am I going to look over to on the right and have them not be there behind that Hammond organ? When she died, I figured we really can't go any further with this. There's no reason to," she explained of the reason why Fleetwood Mac won't go on tour again.
