Default So now that they are officially an oldies band, I pose this question?

Yes, i do realize I didn't need a question mark after the above statement.

I would see them no matter what they were playing! But new music is ideal!

I've seen them enough.

I'm never going back again.

Unhappy

I haven't seen the band since 2004 because of the lack of new music. I kind of wanted to go see them for Christine's return, but didn't end up going because I was never able to pull up a decent seat for any of the Texas dates. If I'm going to pay $200 to see the band, I'd have to be in the first 25 rows. I honestly don't know if I'll ever go see the band again at this point. I suspect unless they put out new music, I won't. Which is unfortunate, because I've never seen Christine live.

I will go see them one more time. It pisses me off that they won't put any new music out, BUT, they've been the soundtrack to my life.

So I'll pony up, one more time.

Because likely that's all they have left in them(before one of them kicks the bucket).

I saw them twice on the last tour. Two years on, I'd need a real incentive (ie: new music and deep tracks from previous albums) to see them again.

I agree.I'm not going to condemn or dont go to shows of this band for no new tunes but I will very happy for new tunes in the setlist. Meantime I know I will cut down on going to multiple shows.As I see already stuff on here about their upcoming tour will start in fall of 2017. If its true.I wont be driving in blizzards and snow covered hills" Pun intended" to see them 5 times.

I really think this should be their last tour. I will definitely be seeing them at least once in 2017. I don't want them to play any new songs. I would rather them play old songs from 1975-1987 that they never played live before, or some of the old pre Buckingham Nicks songs, Oh Well, Why, or Frozen Love would be awesome too. I know all that is extremely unlikely, but I really don't want to spent $500 for a ticket to see them play songs that I don't know and love.

I wouldn't see them again unless they played new music or some songs that have never/rarely been played live.

Not a chance. If I did, I'd be liable to shout "NEW %*}]% MUSIC" between songs.

One thing that does burn me up is they got to give up the inflated tix prices and cash grab touring .Bands like the Marshall Tucker Band are playing for free like they did last month at a weekly town green event a town next to me.Other hits bands are doing the same on Connecticut town greens and at the casinos here .They got to get off of their cash grab tour habits and give back to us fans that supported them for all of this time.
