I don't know if it's Warners, her management, or a combination of both, but that would be very consistent with conversations I've personally had with the management and label of the band I work for. I think it's industry standard. Just because something is happening doesn't mean one is at liberty to talk about it, even in the abstract, and especially not while somebody is promoting two (actually three if you count the photo exhibition) other projects. But she's certainly not going to say she's agreeing to another Fleetwood Mac project while she, her management, and the label working her new solo album as well as the band's "reunion" tour.

The easiest way to keep her out of the "new Fleetwood Mac album" discussion is to not agree to do it, at least until they've finished working 24KG. The band can say "we still have to get Stevie on board," and Stevie's management/label can tell interviewers that any new Fleetwood Mac album questions are off limits. The band can legitimately say they're working on new material (i.e. we're not just an oldies band) and Stevie doesn't have to have her focus taken off of working 24KG.


I think that's a very safe bet.


Christine has been to at least one IYD premier, the 24KG photo exhibition, and reportedly went to Nashville while Stevie was recording 24KG. Christine also said that they had a few "girls nights out" since she's rejoined. The point being is that I think Stevie also feels close to Christine.
What exactly is Stevie doing to promote 24K that you're so certain even the idea that Stevie might one day participate in a Fleetwood Mac album would take away from? Why is it ok for her to tour with fleetwood Mac but coming to an agreement with her band mates is crossing the line? So she has to keep her schedule for the next year or two wide open because she's promoting an album right now? The line of thinking defies logic because of how little attention it would really receive right now and how little she's actively promoting her new album. While you may be an industry expert her veteran band mates don't seem to be aware of the concept.
