25% - Christine
12.5% - Mick
12.5% - John

Someone run the numbers.
Where's my pie graph charts Mr. Dyess?

The new album sales wouldn't offset the loss
percentage wise to Lindsey and Stevie from
touring. Unless of course Christine got them
to tour more dates with her than they would
without her.
I thought the current split was

40% - Stevie
30% - Lindsey
15% - Mick
15% - John

If so, then the new split of

25% - Stevie
25% - Lindsey
25% - Christine
12.5% - Mick
12.5% - John

doesn't make a big dent in the paychecks of anyone other than Stevie. However, I'm on the fence about how much more they can actually make with Christine in the mix. Ticket prices are already very high, so is attendance, and there are a lot of casual fans who just know that Fleetwood Mac is a legendary band with a lot of great songs; they aren't necessarily tuned in to specific personnel line-ups.
