Transcript

On April 1, Lindsey Buckingham, the 76-year-old former Fleetwood Mac guitarist, faced a scary attack on April 1 in Santa Monica, California, while heading into a building for an appointment, a woman threw some unknown substance at him and ran off. Luckily, he wasn't hurt.

Police sources call her a stalking suspect who's known to Buckingham from previous run-ins. No arrest yet, but they're expecting to pick her up soon.

Reps for Buckingham and the cops having commented, since splitting from Fleetwood Mac in 2018 over band drama, he's kept a super low profile.

He shares three kids with his wife, Kristen Messner, and is stayed out of the spotlight.

Lately though, he's teamed up with ex-bandmate and old flame Stevie Nicks for something fresh. They just remastered their 1973 Buckingham Nicks album, dropping it digitally and on CD this September 19, with a teaser.

Single already out. This incident shines a light on his quieter life post, Fleetwood Mac, but that reunion project shows their musical bond still runs deep, even after all, these years.
