For the record, I don't think there's any "harm" in touring with hits, whatever, but it's surely a lame way to go for a band that has one of the best-selling albums of all time. It looks like a bunch of veteran musicians on the way out making money and saying farewell, when (in my opinion) in reality SN and LB are making some of the best post-Rumours and Tusk music they've ever made. Basically by doing a hits tour, they're negating that and putting the emphasis on careers that are behind them, and to make (more) money when they're already rich beyond what they can spend in their lifetimes. Just seems really futile.. Especially when LB talks so much about being creative. I'm hoping this will be different than the cynicism bandied around here, I really hope there's new stuff and BN stuff and we have a different tour than Unleashed '09. But we shall see..
I agree, I don't begrudge them playing the songs that made them famous to begin with, but when they both have so much left to give you feel they're wasting their talent... Look at Bob Dylan! He just came out with a new album this year! Madness. Now, if FM can't get their act together and come out with new songs or a fresh set list then something is seriously wrong with the world
