There'd be a whole different dynamic with a Christine/Lindsey band. For Say You Will, Unleashed and 2013 they played up to the Stevie/Lindsey schtick. The draw of On With The Show is obviously Christine/the return to the 'classic' 5 piece. A Christine/Lindsey band would need a different angle. Such a band would be 75% blues-roots. Christine would need to play more of her own material and she has the pre-75 FM back-catalogue (as well as playing a couple of the new songs). Mick, John and Christine may be more inclined to persuade Lindsey to play an oldie.
