Although I think FM were able to continue successfully when Lindsey left after Tango, the same was not so true when Lindsey, Stevie and Chris were absent from the "Time" era touring. That album was decent and I attended several shows which were enjoyable but to the casual fan it was not Fleetwood Mac in their minds.
If the Mac was to continue without the current vocalist maybe a name change would be appropriate? That "Men of Mac" has a nice sound to it...
With the upcoming tour I believe Stevie will contribute to one last Mac album or EP. At any rate I'm glad my childhood heroes of the 70's are still performing and making great music no matter what name or label it comes under.
