His chronology is off...the album didn't come out until their 14 months tour had ENDED. They only played a couple of songs from the album during the tour. An earlier version of Dave's song "Blow By Blow" was on the Soccer Rocks The World compilation disc about a year or so before Time came out, so for a large part of the tour, that was the only "new" song that was played on tour. (Later, Bekka's "Dreamin' This Dream" replaced their cover of John Lennon's "Imagine" as their concert closer) They did Billy's "The Bigger The Love", which was on his solo album Coming Home (the 2nd time he'd recorded it; it was on an earlier album of his Gimme You) that came out a year or so before Time AND on the album that John McVie did with Lola Thomas. (I seem to recall that they also cut a version for the aborted album Another Link In The Chain)

Bottom line: There WAS no tour to promote Time.
