It's not like Fleetwood Mac is keeping her from an income. However, the opposite is possibly true. Mick's not taking Fleetwood Mac on the road because she doesn't want to? Hell with her...make an album & go on the road with just the guys. It'd probably be a whole lot more fun without the PBFH pouting & throwing tantrums.

Spoken as a true Fleetwood Mac fan!

Stevie is now getting the same pressure.
I feel if Stevie wants to tour with Rod and do her own thing, then I think at this point in her career she deserves to do whatever the hell she wants.
SHE HAS EARNED IT.

Although making decisions that a good for you can have a negative results for others.

At this point, I think it may be time to either pull the plug on Fleetwood Mac altogether or bring in a new girl, but only if they commit to it, as in making a few more albums. (For some reason, Cyndi Lauper seems like a good fit.)

I've said that many times myself. Recruit some new members. Obviously the fame of the late 70's ain't coming back, but FM can still do something!

I'm with you too louie. Mick and John (don't know his take on this) depend on the writers for income. Or put another way "Mick and John depend on the entity of Fleetwood Mac for income."

I find it curious that she wants to tour with Rod Stewart and not a quick Fleetwood Mac tour. I know that "quick" and "Fleetwood Mac" mix like oil and water, but can't it be possible?

What's that saying? There's no such thing as bad publicity?  |
It's great to see activity here on this forum.
