Fleetwood Mac To Tour Without Lindsey Buckingham

Fleetwood Mac have confirmed that Lindsey Buckingham will not be joining them on their upcoming tour.

The band released a statement on Monday saying that Mike Campbell of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers and Neil Finn of Crowded House will replace Buckingham.

'Fleetwood Mac has always been about an amazing collection of songs that are performed with a unique blend of talents... We jammed with Mike and Neil and the chemistry really worked and let the band realise that this is the right combination to go forward with in Fleetwood Mac style. We know we have something new, yet it's got the unmistakable Mac sound.' - Mick Fleetwood

Fleetwood Mac was originally founded in 1967 by Peter Green who named the band after two of its band members, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie. The Genesis edition, Love That Burns - A Chronicle of Fleetwood Mac, Volume One: 1967 - 1974 by Mick Fleetwood, details the early history of the band from their first line-up (pictured above).
