Like ZZ Top, Meatloaf or Boz Scaggs you mean?
Actually in terms of decent commerical decisions Mick hasn't made many in his time. The only reason he hired Stevie Nicks was because Lindsey came with her - and hiring those two people was probably the best decison he ever made (other than joining up with PG and that was probably because he didn't have any better offers at the time).

I think it was called the Unleashed Tour or whatever name they gave it. I expect to see something of the sort in about five years once MFBB has run its course and FM is well and truely finished.

They are a talented bunch of guys, Rick does justice to the old PG songs. No doubt about it. I immensely enjoyed the album and DVD. I'll give them more credit though if the next album isn't loaded up with Peter's stuff and songs that are lifted straight from Rick's solo albums.
