When John McVie refused to join the newly formed band, they hired Brunning with the understanding that he was out if McVie changed his mind. After a few weeks, John McVie joined the band and performed on most of the debut album. Brunning performed on a single track, "Long Grey Mare". Peter Green returned to fill in on guitars for the remainder of the tour after Spencer abruptly quit the band. Lindsey Buckingham/Stevie Nicks returned at the request of U.S. President Bill Clinton for his first Inaugural Ball in 1993. Christine McVie joined the band onstage for Don't Stop during their 2013 World Tour.
