You are exactly right. It was really the only "new" thing in the entire show that was worthwhile, but it should have been addressed much better. First of all, that piece of Sheryl they showed was from Stevie's BTM back in '98 I believe and had nothing to do with her too early announcement of joining Fleetwood Mac. Second of all, Lindsey was so abrasive about it. As if the hallowed stage of Fleetwood Mac was a laughable place for a has-been like Sheryl Crow (that's the impression I got anyway). Lindsey and Stevie just come off as such babies sometimes...I too am happy that the Sheryl Crow thing was nixed but I truly don't think it was a stretch or something blasphemous. And no, she wouldn't just play Christine McVie songs (though Linds, you and Stevie do that...) or Sheryl Crow songs (of course, they do that with their own too), maybe you would RECORD a NEW album where the three of you could have new Fleetwood Mac material to chose from. Regardless, I do agree, good call on not bringing Sheryl on board...I think she would have regretted the move big time. At this stage of the game I'd have to say the idea of someone brand new joining the Mac is pretty silly.

How bout..."yeah, Mick, John, Stevie and I all discussed Sheryl touring with us and it truly did not make much sense to add a fifth member at this point. The announcement about it was premature and we have moved on.."
