As to the Album and Tour, errrr, no idea, other than she’s a musician and enjoyed making music with Lindsey.

I think they just went with the money.

I'm sure $tevie had Irving's full support(even though the scumbag was Lindsey's manager as well), so when the most powerful manager in the history of music is trying to sell you on it, I guess you go along...?

Loyalty means nothing to any of them.

This is about as true as your post from a while back saying most of Stevie Nicks's songs are sang in the key of F. In fact, they are not always in the same key, and the common keys she sings in are C major (Dreams), A minor (Rhiannon) and B flat major (Secret Love, Landslide) and B flat minor (Thrown Down).
Not only are you musically illiterate, thinking that the note a song starts on in the melody line is the key of the song eg Rhiannon, you are also full of BS on the band's politics.
They stayed together through thick and thin for 43 years, so show some respect for that, Homer.

You can show all the respect you want for the band that fired and thrashed Lindsey after 43 years of hard work and without a valid reason. Don’t come here and tell others what to think.

That’s literate enough for you?

I'm no longer a diehard fan. In fact, nowadays I prefer to go see local bands for free or for less than $50 a show, like Bonniedoon from the Blue Mountains and Georgia June in Sydney.
Not telling others what to think, if you think my word is Gospel, that's your interpretation, not my intention.
Poor Lindsey, receiving $$$ settlement, and never having to work with his arch nemesis ever again. (Let's see who takes that juicy bait!)

In Micks mind...
Lindsey and middling money...Stevie and megabucks.
No intergrity...

I still don’t understand Christine, why would they have disbanded without Stevie.
They could have made another Album and this time said it was Fmac.
John is a lemming just follows Mick.

Lindsey is very wealthy, and because of producer monies, and wiser investment choices, possibly more wealthy than Stevie.

Stevie made an empty threat. She has never had any intention of leaving Fleetwood Mac. Christine stayed with the band she committed the rest of her working life to, she gave that guarantee, to her it was iron clad, and did not change based on other personnel changes.
John doesn't want to make a fuss. Who can blame him.

No I meant tour with Lindsey and no Stevie, middling money.
Tour with Stevie, no Lindsey, megabucks.
That was the choice in Micks mind.

Just to let you know, David, I follow this band for 42 years by now.
That said, I can't believe that some people here are still not over the Lindsey situation. It's over a year now. What happened to moving on?

I am not over Lindsey leaving in 1987, so I am not on track for being over him being fired any time before my death. I am over people coming into these threads and saying get over it. Contribute to the conversation by talking about the band or ignore the conversation because you find it tedious and repetitive. You don’t have to read these posts and you certainly don’t have to advise others about moving on.

We’ve discussed the changes Stevie made to Sandy’s Seventh Wonder lyrics for more than a year. That’s what fan forums do. They discuss the same things over and over. The big things, the small ones.

Truer than true. It's a band fan forum. The Rumours drama from 1976 is still a hot topic of conversation here, as it should be—just as much as anything else directly or remotely related to the band. What else is there for a fan forum to do? Keep everything absolutely topical to the last few weeks? A lot of us—me included—really have nothing (or nothing more) to say about the current tour. I get tired of the knee-jerk crankiness, too, but I'd never dream of making any attempt to corral the conversation. Let it go wherever it goes, and this is the direction it's going. Actually, a lot of the fans here who are vocally disgusted with the current situation still share some cool insights into it. For me, a post is worth reading because it says something unusual or amusing or informative, not because it's got a certain "right" attitude about a year-old event. A forum that's been up for over twenty years, like this one, is bound to repeat itself a lot. Topics and attitudes and opinions will often seem stale to some of us readers. I've seen and added to so many threads about our favorite songs on Bella Donna or Mirage that I have absolutely nothing more to say. But I skip what bores me and dig around for something that amuses me. (That's why I wish we had a different format—to make it more convenient to decide at a glance.)

Stevie didn't write Seven Wonders????

The fact that These Strange Times is on that list disqualifies it.

The fact that Dreams is put as the best Fleetwood Mac song ever makes it both amusing and a good indication that Mick and Chris interviews will be PR pieces throwing Lindsey under the bus.

You know it.
