Yes! They seem to have their listless heads up their fat asses. So many obvious but missed opportunities. Fleetwood Mac is a like big ship that has a hard time maneuvering in the sea of marketing prospects. How many more Rumours repackages will they make?
The sheer artistic output from the Lindsey/Stevie era of Fleetwood Mac is pitiful when held against how long they have existed. Granted, with so many strong personalities, egos and various circumstances and distractions, they don't function normally.
I'm grateful they at least milked their back catalog with deluxe versions of Rumours and Tusk, and gave us The Chain box set (A fresh, updated, better box set would be welcome). But the have ignored Mirage and Tango in the Night.
They've done three somewhat redundant tours, with the same old same old, without taking advantage of creative marketing strategies. The blame falls on their managers as well as themselves.
