That is always a possibility! Or maybe yet another redo of Crystal.
Stevie has it pretty easy. She doesn't have to play an instrument, and she isn't producing the album. The rest of the band mostly carries the weight of work and responsibility for making the record. That's why it's somewhat infuriating she is playing the primadonna card with the band that made her famous, and made accommodations which allowed her to pursue a solo career.
She has a right to be frustrated about the timing of Christine's return and their immediate decision to tour. It has thwarted her ability to promote her solo album in the traditional manner. I suspect that, even if she was given that chance, it wouldn't have made that much more of an impact on her sales and chart numbers. The revenue she is collecting on this this tour probably vastly outweighs the financial return she could possibly generate from her album. It's very disappointing and surprising that Stevie has shown such ambivalence and a lack of loyalty and enthusiasm to work with the band to make what could likely be their swan song album. It makes her outward happiness that Christine is back in the band so disingenuous.
