Background

Fleetwood Mac's plans for a worldwide concert tour in 2018 were first revealed by Christine McVie in March 2017, when the tour was initially referred to as a "farewell tour", with plans of having the Rumours lineup (Lindsey Buckingham, Stevie Nicks, Christine McVie, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie) reuniting for another tour for the first time since On with the Show (2014–2015). [2] "The 2018 tour is supposed to be a farewell tour, but you take farewell tours one at a time. Somehow we always come together, this unit. We can feel it ourselves" said Christine McVie. She told The One Show in June 2017 that the band planned to begin rehearsing in March 2018, and begin the global tour in June. [3] [4] The band announced the tour on April 25, 2018, with a leg of 54 concerts across North America, beginning in October 2018. [5] Weeks prior to the tour announcement, the band had announced its separation from longtime vocalist and lead guitarist Lindsey Buckingham. [6] The separation was reportedly due to disagreements concerning the tour. According to Stevie Nicks, the band wanted to begin rehearsals in June 2018 and tour at the end of the year, while Buckingham wanted to put off rehearsals until November 2019. Vocalist/guitarist Neil Finn and guitarist Mike Campbell joined the band after Buckingham's departure. [7]
