Stevie Nicks has shed a little more light on why she's resisted a Fleetwood Mac tour the past few years, a decision which has annoyed her fellow bandmates.
Nicks tells Classic Rock magazine, "A big band like Fleetwood Mac needs to get out of the spotlight, so that’s what we’ve done. We should always be off the road for three years, because when we come back it’s an event. I think that’s very important." Fleetwood Mac's last tour wrapped up in the fall of 2015.
Nicks adds that a long break helps relations in the band. "And being away from each other for three years is good. It really sets you up for a good time because everything’s new and everybody’s got new stories and everybody’s been doing crazy, different things, so when you walk into rehearsal that first day everyone’s really happy to see each other. If we toured every other year it wouldn’t be like that."
Fleetwood Mac is expected to tour later this year.
