Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood celebrate the life of the late Christine McVie

Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood reunite to remember their late bandmate Christine McVie in Malibu... two months after her passing.
 


Stevie Nicks, Lindsey Buckingham and Mick Fleetwood braved the rain to celebrate the life of their late Fleetwood Mac bandmember Christine McVie on Monday night.

As the trio reunited two months after English musician's death at 79 following a brief illness, the group looked somber while leaving Little Beach House Malibu.

For the occasion, Nicks, 74, wore a black jacket, matching pants, a light grey scarf and her voluminous blonde hair curly and free. 

While exiting the posh oceanfront venue, the two-time Grammy winner clutched one red and one white rose. 

Fleetwood, 75, wore a fedora, black jacket, a white button-down with a popped collar and dark-wash pants to the memorial.

McVie is best known for writing and singing some of their band's biggest hits, including Don't Stop, Little Lies, Say You Love Me, You Make Loving Fun and Songbird. 

Her genius and warm, soulful vocals helped to turn the one-time blues band into one of the most successful rock groups of all time, with more than 100million record sold worldwide.
