Final Album / Tour Idea...
I would love to see the Rumours-era 5 members go into the studio in London and make a double album as their final Fleetwood Mac album; like the Eagles did last year. Instead of a world tour, perform only in England, film it, and release it worldwide like Michael Jackson's "This Is It". The fabulous 5 are reunited for their swansong, we get a masterpiece album for all the ages, and no one has to tour. Thoughts? Ideas? Someone send this to their agents!

Even though I live over in the US I think that'd be really chill.
But I don't think they could release it in the movies like the whole Michael Jackson thing. that wouldnt work I don't think |

They make of their money touring so this would never happen.

I think at some point Mick came out and said the band "liked" what happened with the Eagles album (in terms of selling it at Walmart). Am I imagining that? Maybe Lindsey said it.
All that aside, I think it'd be a great idea. A double CD plus a "Farewell Tour"... magic? Sadly, I don't see the double album thing working out... and I'm not 100% sure that the Mac would actually limit their audience to those who buy CDs at Wally World. And lastly... Christine McVie, I think, will never return.

Yes, Asda is the UK equivalent of Wal-Mart (owned by them) but they don't get the exclusivity deals with music etc that bands negotiate. If the Mac did this, especially because half of them are British, I think this would backfire badly.

I think the band has made it pretty clear that Christine is never coming back.
I also could care less about a double album. I would love to hear 12 songs that formed a great cohesive album . |

But, what about Azoff's "talks" with Wal-Mart as reported prior to the Unleashed tour? It's totally possible whatever project we see from them next will indeed be marketed that way...

I definitely agree as well that the last thing we need is another floppy, rambling double album. SYW was so weighed down by it's own size that it never could get off the ground. What they really need to do is make a finely produced, concise, cohesive album. Something that's approachable, yet very fresh: kinda like the white album, Rumours, and Tango were in their own day. |

In fact, in one interview (VH1?) she didn't rule out the idea of even playing a date or 2 in support of her music. I didn't think it would happen. To tell the truth, before her album came out, I had suspected that maybe Christine was a bit agoraphobic. When she actually made it over here to California to promote ITMT, I was shocked. Of course, as far as we know, she didn't connect with FM over here at all and just briefly saw them in the UK, so I wasn't encouraged about any future reunions. Still, while she made it clear that touring and the whole cycle of getting high to get on stage and then bringing yourself back down to get a bit of rest was not something she would ever do again, I never heard her say one thing that suggested she was not willing to record again, as long as recording didn't involve touring. Having her songs on an album would not require the sort of involvement with FM today that it did in the past anyway. It's not like we're talking going to Sausalito, renting another condo and hiding from your ex-husbands one more time. All you'd have to do is trade audio tapes back and forth across the pond. At any rate, even if she didn't sing anything with them, getting Tusk or Tango audio-commentary that would include her, like what we got from Rumours would be a nice gift as well. Michele |

I think you're absolutely right. She's not done recording... but I think she's done being a full time member of Fleetwood Mac, even in the recording sense. Maybe it's just me, but I get a strong impression from her In the Meantime interviews that she's just done with the Mac chapter of her life... she dedicated her whole adulthood to it, she's made her artistic statement, said and done everything she set out to do, and she's closed the book. It definitely wouldn't surprise me one bit if we get more recordings from Christine in various forms or fashions. I would even bet she'd contribute in a minor fashion to a new Mac album, so long as she didn't have to leave England, and didn't have to do any live shows. I think the lady just wants her privacy... wants to spoil her puppies, spend her time with family, and live out her golden years in peace and tranquility. I just can't see her tolerating any interruptions of that.
