\n\tLate last week, Lindsey Buckingham<\/a> dropped a very tantalizing tidbit<\/a> while speaking to his Instagram followers about his future plans. \u201cI think on a more general level, just the energy in terms of what Buckingham Nicks<\/em> did to sort of create a resurgence of connection between Stevie [Nicks] and myself, I think on a larger scale, that seems to be something that\u2019s in the air,\u201d he said, referring to the reissue of their 1973 collaborative LP last year. \u201cAnd what that translates to specifically, I wouldn\u2019t want to speculate yet. But I believe with all my heart, it will translate to something good, and something wonderful, and something needed and something extremely appropriate.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tFor context, Nicks and Buckingham haven\u2019t performed together since a January 2018 Fleetwood Mac<\/a> MusiCares tribute show at New York\u2019s Radio City Music Hall. Nicks was enraged by his behavior that night, and essentially told the band that she wouldn\u2019t agree to their upcoming tour if he was involved. The group sided with Nicks, and brought in Mike Campbell and Neil Finn<\/a> to replace Buckingham on the tour. He sued them for wrongful termination, <\/a>they settled out of court,<\/a> and any sort of reconciliation seemed very unlikely, even though Nicks and Buckingham briefly spoke at a private event honoring Christine McVie.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cThe only time I\u2019ve spoken to Lindsey was there, for about three minutes,\u201d Nicks told Rolling Stone<\/em> in October 2024,<\/a> where she also ruled out any sort of future Fleetwood Mac activity.\u00a0 \u201cI dealt with Lindsey for as long as I could. You could not say that I did not give him more than 300 million chances.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n \n\tThat truly seemed like the end of the Stevie\/Lindsey saga until July 2025 when they teamed up via social media to tease the Buckingham Nicks<\/em> reissue. <\/a>There was no evidence they actually spoke until October 2025 when Nicks went on the Song Exploder <\/em>podcast, and discussed the night they met back in 1966. \u201cLindsey and I started talking about it last night,\u201d Nicks said. \u201cThis whole thing seems really like yesterday to us.\u201d<\/p>\n
