But if I read you right, and you're saying that tickets for this tour would suddenly sell out if Christine did come back into the fold... I gotta disagree. It's not like it's been that long since Chris toured with them, and she's just not as vital to the band - to casual fans - as Stevie or Lindsey... IMO

We're not talking Mike Nesmith rejoining the Monkees here!
Disagree. If you asked the casual fan to name the FM songs they know and might want to hear at a concert, at least half would be hers.

At both shows I saw in 03 and 09 people were wondering aloud why a lot of the "80s hits" eg Little Lies and Everywhere had been left out. They may not know her name or face as well as they might know Stevie's, but they know her songs and tend to expect them. Stevie admitted as much before Unleashed when explaining why they were attempting Say You Love Me.
