Fleetwood Mac have announced the dates for a massive North American tour this fall and winter. The news comes shortly after Lindsey Buckingham unexpectedly broke with the group, and the band subsequently announced that he would be replaced on future dates by Mike Campbell of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and Crowded House/Split Enz frontman Neil Finn. The tour will feature 52 dates and stretch from October of this year until April 2019.

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, Stevie Nicks also described Buckingham’s split as being the result of scheduling issues surrounding the tour. “We were supposed to go into rehearsal in June and he wanted to put it off until November [2019],” Nicks told Rolling Stone. “That’s a long time. I just did 70 shows [on a solo tour]. As soon as I finish one thing, I dive back into another. Why would we stop? We don’t want to stop playing music. We don’t have anything else to do. This is what we do.”

Mick Fleetwood addressed accusations that Buckingham was “fired”: “Words like ‘fired’ are ugly references as far as I’m concerned. Not to hedge around, but we arrived at the impasse of hitting a brick wall. This was not a happy situation for us in terms of the logistics of a functioning band. To that purpose, we made a decision that we could not go on with him. Majority rules in term of what we need to do as a band and go forward.”

Nicks also discussed her personal feelings about the split. “Our relationship has always been volatile,” she said. “We were never married, but we might as well have been. Some couples get divorced after 40 years. They break their kids’ hearts and destroy everyone around them because it’s just hard. This is sad for me, but I want the next 10 years of my life to be really fun and happy. I want to get up every day and dance around my apartment and smile and say, ‘Thank God for this amazing life.”
