As soon as this tour is finished he'll most likely go away and tour with his brother or son or solo and and maybe even then record another album. Why would he then ever want to return to Fleetwood Mac? What would be the point? There's no creative outlet. There's no royalty cheque. Stevie doesn't want to record anything. Even if she did she'll most likely take x years off after this tour anyway. Lets face it, whatever they say- after An Evening with Fleetwood Mac, that's it. It all over. All she wrote.
I think Neil joined FM for a couple of reasons:

1) The opportunity to work with Stevie, Christine, Mick, John, and Mike.

2) The money from touring.

3) It gives him exposure to a whole new audience.

Let's be honest- the opportunity to work with FM would be hard to turn down for anybody. I can't fault him for any of those reasons. I also think Stevie will record with FM since Lindsey was fired, and I bet she told Neil that before he joined.
