'Rumours' have it: Fleetwood Mac at Verizon Arena on Friday

The hook on which legendary Fleetwood Mac hangs its latest tour is the 35th anniversary of the band’s album, Rumours, Jack W. Hill writes in Thursday's Arkansas Weekend section.

So who is Fleetwood Mac after these 35 years? A couple of Englishmen, drummer Mick Fleetwood and bassist John McVie — who donated parts of their names when forming the band in 1967 — are still around, along with former partners in music and love, guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and singer Stevie Nicks, who joined in 1975. Missing is singer/pianist Christine McVie, who gave up that most perfect of maiden names (Perfect) when she wed John McVie in 1970. They divorced as the Rumours tour was ending in 1978 and she left the band in the late 1990s.
