Eddie Vedder has become the latest musician to join up with Fleetwood Mac’s Mike Campbell for one of his recurring ‘Bathroom Jams’.
You might recall how earlier this year, the music world was shocked to learn that Lindsey Buckingham had been fired from Fleetwood Mac. In his place, the band welcomed none other than Crowded House’s Neil Finn, and Mike Campbell, of Tom Petty’s band The Heartbreakers.
Over the last few months, Fleetwood Mac have been out on the road, touring throughout the US, and playing all manner of venues. During that time, Mike Campbell has been sharing a series of videos on his Instagram account where he rocks out with his guitar in a bathroom for some reason.
Now, the rocker has teamed up with Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder for his latest video, which sees him joined by Neil Finn for a brief acoustic performance of a few blues riffs.
In related Fleetwood Mac news, Lindsey Buckingham recently revealed he was suing his bandmates for firing him from the group.
“Last January, Fleetwood Mac made the decision to continue to tour without me,”Buckingham explained to Rolling Stone last month. “I remain deeply surprised and saddened, as this decision ends the beautiful 43-year legacy we built together.”
“Over the last eight months, our many efforts to come to an agreement have unfortunately proved elusive. I’m looking forward to closure, and will always remain proud of all that we created, and what that legacy represents.”
While it remains to be seen what will happen when the lawsuit appears in court, a spokesperson for Fleetwood Mac explained that they “strongly dispute” Buckingham’s claims.
This lawsuit was filed not long after Buckingham noted that it was Stevie Nicks who is responsible for his firing from the group, receiving the news via a phone call from band manager Irving Azoff.
“I called Irving and said, ‘This feels funny. Is Stevie leaving the band, or am I getting kicked out?’” Buckingham recalled, only to be told that Nicks had given the band “an ultimatum: Either you go or she’s gonna go.”
