Maybe they will do what they did after TISL..she will come off the road and start in the studio after Christmas. I just don't understand the general consensus that they are never ever going to record together again when everything they said in the last few years indicated otherwise. I remember Lindsey saying he would never do solo again and focus on the Mac if Stevie wanted to go back in after the tour wrapped.
Has sooooo much changed all the sudden that I am unaware of? Mick not wanting to give a definative answer is not unusual if nothing is set in stone. I am skeptical of the Peter Green comment too although I would love it to happen.

I, too, think it's very plausible that Mick, John, Stevie, and Lindsey will record again. It certainly sounded to me all the way through SYW that they were having fun together, and at the end of the tour, there was no indication that I remember that it was over for good. I took the comments at the RRHOF to indicate that they were on a break, but not over for good.

I know he said he was writing again and if that is the case...there is even less of a chance of those songs making a solo album. It will take him a four or five years to tweak and get them right. Perfectionist that he is. Sorry for being a Debbie Downer but I am STILL waiting for the GoS album he said was 90 percent done during the friggin Dance and the tour he said was happening in the summer of 01 on his BTM.

As for the Lindsey solo thing, I will be a double Debbie Downer. I don't think it'll ever happen. I think Mick and Stevie and John will come knocking again long before he is ready to put out any new collection of songs, and that they will morph again into a FM album. Which will make me happy. I think Lindsey, the mega perfectionist, is just far more secure in his band. He needs other people to say, "okay,Lindsey, it
is good, it's
fabulous, you can't make it any better." Also, the reality of the music biz today is that unless Lindsey puts out an album on an indie label, it ain't gonna happen. If Warners had concerns two years ago, they aren't going to suddenly be feeling more like taking a risk now. He's been out of the scene for too long as a solo name (aside from real FM and LB fans, the average person on the street under 30 wouldn't know his name) and he doesn't quite meet the, er, demographic that the fabricated world that is today's music "biz" is after. I think that's a GOOD thing - but it means us fans will have to wait and just hope FM gets back together (which I think they will) or hope Linds sucks it up and puts out his album himself or on an indie label.
