“I’ve been on the road since last September, so I don’t understand their premise,” she told Rolling Stone. Nicks added that she didn’t understand why Buckingham and Christine McVie felt the need to work outside of the group format. I want to do a miniseries for the stories of Rhiannon and the gods of Wales, which I think would be this fantastic thing, but I don’t have to retire from being a rock star to go and do that. “My friend Doug Morris, who’s been president of, like, every record company, said to me once, ‘When you retire, you just get small.’ Stand up straight, put on your heels, and get out there and do stuff.
