Their LEGACY is too popular, and everyone wants to relive their childhood. That's why tours are more important than art. Art doesn't buy more vacation houses.
Yes I agree .If we quit ,They will still go on.Alot of concert goers enjoy their music.

If they rely on us diehard fans only going to their shows .They will be broke in no time.

I'm a big fan of them doing this tour right now. At the very minimum, we've at least gotten to see the classic Mac one more time. Given their ages, recent health issues, and the uncertainty of the band's future, they would've been fools to not take advantage of this golden opportunity at this moment in time. They could've done the album right away, but who knows how long it would have taken to finish by the time all of the contracts are finished?

All of that being said, I fully believe there will be more in the future. Christine didn't come out of retirement just to go back into retirement, she didn't come out of retirement just to do more oldies tours, and she didn't come out of retirement to make dueling solo albums with Lindsey. She came back to make new Fleetwood Mac music. This is why if Stevie isn't going to record with them I think they will have to part ways, but I still think Stevie will ultimately record with them.
Yes I'm enjoying this tour myself .I get to see Chris back with the Mac .I think Stevie will hit the studio with the Mac.The timing is all mixed up.
