Fleetwood Mac legend Stevie Nicks has canceled her August and September tour dates after fracturing her shoulder, sparking momentary panic among fans. The 77-year-old singer shared the news via Instagram, clarifying that she aims to return for October shows, though her somber tone led some to fear worse news.

Tour Postponement and Recovery
Nicks’ statement explained that her injury makes performing impossible in the short term. While she’s cleared to resume her tour on October 1 in Portland, Oregon, rescheduled dates stretch through December 10, ending in Hollywood, Florida. The announcement initially alarmed fans, with comments like “Jesus Christ, my heart skipped” flooding her post. Others humorously suggested she be “wrapped in bubble wrap” to avoid future injuries.

Buckingham Nicks Album Reissue
The news followed a happier update: Nicks’ long-out-of-print 1973 album Buckingham Nicks—a collaboration with ex-partner Lindsey Buckingham—will finally be reissued. The album, never remastered or available digitally, gained cult status after the duo joined Fleetwood Mac and propelled the band to global fame.

The 1973 album Buckingham Nicks will be reissued for the first time in 50 years.

Fan Reactions and Humor
Fans mistook Nicks’ post for a retirement or health crisis. “Whoever runs this Instagram, DON’T SCARE ME LIKE THAT AGAIN,” one user pleaded. Others joked about “unnecessary risks,” reflecting their protective affection. Despite the uproar, Nicks reassured supporters she’ll return, with rescheduled shows covering the Southwest, East Coast, and Midwest.

Fans flooded Nicks’ post with concerned and humorous messages.

Fleetwood Mac’s Future
Nicks previously hinted Fleetwood Mac might never tour again after Christine McVie’s 2022 death, though she softened her stance in a 2024 interview. Recent cryptic Instagram posts from Nicks and Buckingham fueled reunion rumors, but these were tied to the album reissue—not a musical comeback.

Rescheduled Tour Dates

• October 1: Portland, Oregon
• October–November: California, Southwest, and East Coast
• December 10: Hollywood, Florida

Nicks’ team emphasized refunds for canceled shows, with tickets for rescheduled dates remaining valid. The singer’s resilience remains unwavering, as she continues to balance her legacy with fans’ unwavering devotion.
