How admirable of you. Too bad us mere mortals can't be as perfect.

Tell that the family living in the box in a vacant lot in a slum. I am sure your $10 on something you did not need could feed all of them. Thus, it applies to us on that scale. Thus, is the state of the world and probably always will be until we all live in the same exact space, wear the same exact stuff, etc.

They have everything to do with the ticket prices. Their guarantee sets the price of the ticket.

Having grown up very poor, I'm the last person who needs to be lectured on how my dollars could be used to help others in the same situation, pal. I've already said that both types of spending are wasteful, so I don't really understand the point you're trying to make.

I hope FMac does not do anymore shows. I think there's a whole lot more to be created in solo albums and tours! Please put a fork in it! If not for them, for us fans. Please don't tour again!!! If I hear those same songs again I'll combust instantly!! And so will some of you!

I already read it, just as I've read your past comments about poor people. Believe what you want to believe, as will I. Spending money on things you don't need is wasteful, end of story. We've already established that a few posts ago.

Personally, I would like to see Stevie and Lindsey do solo tours. Then, Fleetwood Mac should get their butts back into the studio and do another album, and then tour to promote that album. They need to make this new album sooner than later. It shouldn't be like Say You Will, which came out SIX YEARS after The Dance! They are getting up in years, unfortunately, and they need to start putting this valuable time to use. If they wait another six years like they did with the Say You Will project, we may never see another album.
