We fans of Christine and/or Lindsey would get more songs by our favorite(s).

The rest of us won't have to put up with annoying Stevie fans because they won't go to this show.

We'd get better seats in a more intimate venue for less money.
agree with all of this, perfectly summed up all the positive aspects of the FM 4 tour!

although frankly, i think they'd probably do just 6 new songs, and maybe just one deep cut per songwriter. definitely much more space in that setlist when it has to be only divided between 2 songwriters!

curious whether it would be just the 4 of them, or Brett and Neale and Steve Rinkov would still be there. Lindsey's SWS tour had Neale, Brett and Walfredo Reyes on drums, and then his OMS tour was just Lindsey on his own. but yeah, definitely no extra backup singers!
