Meanwhile Mick Fleetwood has shared memories of Peter Green. "I didn’t start Fleetwood Mac. People think that I did sometimes. I get why. I’ve dealt with that my whole adult life. So I get it. But that’s not why we all did this."
On February 25th, 2020, just days before Covid-19, Mick Fleetwood teamed up with Pete Townshend, David Gilmour, Noel Gallagher, Steven Tyler, Kirk Hammett, Billy Gibbons, Christine McVie, and many others to honor the legacy of Fleetwood Mac founder Peter Green with a special concert at the London Palladium.

By happenstance, all these people were able to be there in London before the world closed down. It was really magical and almost unbelievable that all these things fell into place."
"Pete Townshend came in after the fact. I met him through Zak Starkey, who plays with him in the Who. He’s a friend and he’s a huge Peter Green fan."
