Critics as well as her musical peers were coming out of the wood work to praise her. I think she is afraid to release another album and it not be as well recieved as TISL. I think she would prefer, like Seinfeld, to go out with what she feels was some of her best work. Her "masterpiece" as she has refered to it.

I pretty much agree with you. But then I wonder why is choosing to "go out" by touring with more or less a nostalgia act setlist with only two TISL songs.
And Stevie needs to know that she could record an album with 10-12 of those songs on Nixxed's bootleg thread (with a good producer) and it will be well-received.
