I vote for a FM album with Chris & no tour. I've always put albums ahead of live concerts. That goes for any of my favorite artists, not just Christine/Fleetwood Mac.

I do like live concerts I must admit but I won't be going to another FM one unless there's something new on offer. Quite frankly without a new album it'll be more of the same.

Start with The Chain. Three really long songs Come, I'm so Afraid and World Turning, so time your beer comsumption and visits to the loo around these songs. Lindsey kisses Stevie's hand after Landslide. Lindsey makes a little speach (cycles or whatever). More supplementary musicians on stage than band members. I saw Elton John about 18 months ago (I don't really know why) but on stage there was him, a drummer, bass player, another keyboard player and a guitarist. He was joined by a gospel choir for about 4 songs. and that was it.

Liven up the set list for heaven's sake! Talk about working the album. By my calculations they worked Rumours just as much.

If Chris records but doesn't tour they might sell more albums (well 2 more anyway - me and Macfan )) so they'll all benefit financially from that. She wont benefit directly from the tour but she wont get paid for it.

Actually this whole discussion could be academic because she might not fancy even recording again.

Make that 3 more albums! If Christine sings on it, I'll buy it!

I'd say make that 6 (or whatever), but lately it's the OTHER McVie (the one that made Christine NOT "Perfect" anymore) that has kept my interest in the band, remote as it may be, going.

Damn, John can make an otherwise boring song come to life. I heard "Dreams" on the radio today, and it hit me just how cool John's playing was with the whole "wrap around your dreams and" bass line. That's gold. No other bassist would give you that on instict! I'll quit going to Fleetwood Mac shows when there's not a McVie in it anymore
