"Christine McVie has reflected on the 16 years that she spent away from Fleetwood Mac. The group announced last week that Christine will rejoin Fleetwood Mac for a US tour, following a special reunion in the UK late last year.  McVie has spoken to Rolling Stone about her life in England after walking away from the &amp;#039;Don&amp;#039;t Stop&amp;#039; band back in 1998. &amp;quot;Music left my life for a while, to be honest,&amp;quot; she explained. &amp;quot;It wasn&amp;#039;t that I didn&amp;#039;t like it, but you know, I&amp;#039;m not really a solo player. I have always needed other musicians to bounce off.&amp;quot;  She continued: &amp;quot;Of course, the ultimate band being the band that I have just rejoined, so, I couldn&amp;#039;t imagine doing anything with anyone else.  &amp;quot;I did make a solo album [2004&amp;#039;s In the Meantime] in my house when I was there. And because I was just afraid of flying, I wouldn&amp;#039;t promote it and I wouldn&amp;#039;t tour. Actually, it wasn&amp;#039;t a very good album anyway - it got buried underneath the pits of hell, I suppose.&amp;quot; McVie&amp;#039;s return to Fleetwood Mac came about last year, after reconnecting with drummer Mick Fleetwood on a trip to his home in Maui.  &amp;quot;It is a time warp; it is very, very happy,&amp;quot; she declared. &amp;quot;None of the nonsense with the drink and the nasty stuff. We&amp;#039;re all grown up, of course.&amp;quot;  The singer went on to say: &amp;quot;One thing that we definitely have is chemistry and respect for each other&amp;#039;s music, and [Lindsey Buckingham] and I play well off each other.  &amp;quot;We have great rapport; he loves working on my songs and I love what he does with my songs, not to mention the fabulous rhythm section. So I&amp;#039;m a pig in a pile of poo really.&amp;quot; Fleetwood Mac kick off the tour in Minneapolis, MN on September 30. Watch the group perform &amp;#039;World Turning&amp;#039; below:      "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
