The “Tusk” band made the announcement that McVie is rejoining the group for a tour on Thursday's episode of NBC's “Today,” during an interview with Carson Daly.

“Well, there's been a lot of rumors and reports about you, Christine, and the band,” Daly asked of the reunion scuttlebutt. “So can we make it official?”

McVie hasn't toured with the band since 1998. During the interview, McVie — surrounded by bandmates Lindsey Buckingham, John McVie, Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks — attributed her absence from the road to a fear of flying.
“I haven't flown for 15 years,” McVie admitted.

The upcoming tour, which will start later this year, will include an Oct. 9 performance at Rockefeller Plaza in New York.
