I say give it about six months and see how they feel. They are being courted I think for Glastonbury in June 2016 and they may want to do warm up gigs prior.
I noticed this snippet about Mick's plans for next year. It seemed to be mainly Mick doing the press in Australia.

The more than chatty sticksman also reveals that he hopes to bring his blues band back to Australia at some point next year and to possibly enlist the services of an old mate, a certain J. Barnes. “It would be fun. He’s a great rock ‘n’ roll singer and in truth a great blues singer. He’s really adept at it.” As we went to press Barnesy wasn’t aware of this development, but hopefully he soon will be.

Jimmy Barnes is from my home city Adelaide though he was Scots born. He's been around a long time. He once did an ear splitting duet with Tina Turner and he's a total madman. Here he is in quieter mode.

I am letting my imagination run away with me here. Next year they could do a double bill of Fleetwood Mac and The Faces. It'd be smashing if Peter Green could join them for some of it.
I can't see Lindsey being part of that arrangement though. Great guitarist even though he is, blues audiences are often purists. And I know he probably still hates Rod Stewart!
