Buckingham smirks while Nicks speeches, so he's out and they become the worlds most expensive tribute band.
I remember the last tour before Christine re-joined.
Nicks was rambling on for about 20 minutes before singing 'Without You'.
And it was so incoherent even the audience was laughing.
So no, you can't blame Buckingham for a smirk.
Funny; I remember this exactly as well. It was in Antwerp, Belgium; and the audience there was laughing at first... but soon became very iritated. (and rightfully so. Cringeworthy it was!)

What is the corporate structure of that band? Mick has said he's extended full membership to Finn and Campbell, so presumably Buckingham has had the same.
Since the band is discussing recording new material with the latest members, while one member refused to record with Buckingham for over five years, that could be part of the basis of the suit. If their tour isn't selling as well as past tours, that could be another. It could be settled out of court or drag on for years.

Sound effects...
I remember when I saw them several years back she was rambling on and on about something (becoming a hippie in the '60's or something like that?), but I didn't get to hear any sound effects!

Me neither. When I saw them at The Forum in 2014, she told a long story before "Gypsy" - Christine and John sat on the floor behind Christine's keyboard and chatted, and I don't remember Lindsey doing anything...actually, the rest of the band was in the shadows while she spoke (lights only on her), so he might not even have been on stage until they were ready to start the song.

We might have been at the same show, and out of curiosity just looked through my email folder of all concert tickets purchased.
I attended the Dec 6, 2014 show at the Forum, and enjoyed it so much I saw them again when they returned to the Forum on April 14, 2015!
Don't recall hearing any sound effects at either show!

Yeah same here Jah Paul - those were my first and last times seeing the classic Rumours lineup.
I did have tickets to see them in 2009 or 2010 (sans Christine), but went on a spur of the moment trip to Hawaii with my wife, and ended up giving the tickets away to some friends who said they had a great time!
Really a shame the way this has all played out - had Lindsey still been in the band I would have gone to see them again in an instant. And if Stevie would have been more willing a year or so ago, they probably would have had a new album to go with it! I do recall Lindsey saying at one of the Forum shows that they were so grateful to have Christine back, and they were already writing new material for a Fleetwood Mac album...was never to be.
