One would assume that they would be playing larger venues because there would be more demand.

And, I’m not worried about anything. Lindsey can play smaller venues as a solo artist, Mick can fall back on the blues...Everybody who wants to work can find a way to make a buck.

However, I also get that playing a two hour show to 2500 people is the same amount of work as playing to 4000.

“Many on the Internet” is anecdotal. All of the TeamLindsey FB crowd wouldn’t have made up one section of the crowd at a Fleetwood Mac show.

Mick and his band play bars, vineyards, and tiny clubs.
Yeah, and they made a Grammy-nominated album...

Mick Fleetwood on his own isn’t a huge draw. He doesn’t sing or write songs, he’s just a drummer. However, he has the “Fleetwood” name and Lindsey’s most critically acclaimed work was with the “Fleetwood” name. So, for Lindsey, including Mick Fleetwood means a bigger show.

“Fleetwood Buckingham” would get much more attention than either the Mick Fleetwood Blues Band or Lindsey Buckingham.
