Guitarist Lindsay Buckingham is optimistic when it comes to a Fleetwood Mac reunion. In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Buckingham said the legendary band could be back on the road in 2012 – and might even work on a new album.
“I wouldn’t be shocked if it was a tour and possibly an album. We’ll have to wait and see. Nothing is on the books right now,” he said. “With Fleetwood Mac, there’s a lot of landmines out there politically and it’s hard to get everybody on the same page at the same time – but I think this might be one of those years where everyone will want to do the same thing. Whatever that is.”
It’s assumed that the reunited lineup would consist of
John McVie,
Mick Fleetwood,
Stevie Nicks and himself –
Christine McVie left the group and retired from touring more than a decade ago.
In the meantime, Buckingham is releasing a solo album, "Seeds We Sow" (out Septmber 6) and playing a 50-date tour this fall.
Thanks for the report to Bryan Wawzenek, Gibson.com.
