If you're going to keep going as a band, that means new material, not just greatest hits rehash for the tours.
yes. and seems most of FM members and especially LB agrees with you. it's the difference between being a nostalgia act or still having some relevance as a recording artist.

although i was on the first listen annoyed by formulaic approach to 2 of 3 LB's songs on the EP, i was always nothing but ecstatic to get new music from them, whether as an EP, download of a couple of tunes, or whatever they wanted to give me.

if the choice was EP or no EP, my choice would have definitely be EP. seems most people here the choice would be no EP. i just don't get that.
