My issue would be she'd use the time to do her own thing- solo album, solo tour. For the rest of them the solo-band-solo cycle is long past. They are back to being a fully fledged band.

Fleetwood Mac has been on the road for 3 years in a row. Stevie's going to stalk off to her solo career come Hell or high water now- especially since her latest solo album was consumed by the Fleetwood Mac tour machine, and she never had a chance to perform any of those songs live. She probably blames that album's bombing on it's lack of supporting tour, and odds are she's highly bitter about that. The band-solo-band charade has been going on for 35 years, even Christine's against-all-odds return will not break the cycle, unfortunately. Mark my word- Stevie is going to figure out a way to drag the solo thing out. I wouldn't be surprised if she started another solo album, just to thumb her nose at Lindsey and his decade-long plea for a new FM album. Add in Stevie's newfound opinion that FM should wait 3 years between tours now, and odds aren't looking so hot in regards to a fresh FM chapter any time soon.
With that kind of forecast, I think the band should go back into the studio with or without her by mid next year. They could always release an EP as a four-piece, sans Stevie. Because I seriously doubt they'd do a full-on album minus her at this point. I'd actually welcome a Lindsey-Chris Mac album; it'd be sort of a spiritual successor to Tango.
