I said yonks ago that 2017 made sense, but even so they should have given us a hint, by now.
I also agree with previous posts that this is all becoming a bit boring but addictive, too.
I've actually agreed with you more in this thread more than any place else. lol

i'm stunned by all the fans who have been around this fandom for a while saying secret! plan! all in order! in this thread.

guess people don't like to learn from history.
They are busy, they are working on the Behind The Mask/Time Deluxe package.

And though those albums are deemed commercial failures, they at least represent a band doing what it should do: that is, make new music and attempt to forge ahead.

The current band isn't even accomplishing that.

I think the whole "we're making a new album" was a setup to make them seem more then an oldies act before the tour. I think the village recorder sessions were just Lindsey and Christine getting warmed up before rehearsals. I don't believe anything they say anymore. It all appears scripted to sell concert tickets. "lindsey and I love each other, hate each other, it's a new chapter...." UGH

Ok... I'll be the optimist....
Just thinking that they have the tracks in the can....
What's after that? Mixing....
Where has Richard Dashut been? Haven't seen him posting --- anywhere. Maybe cuz he's..... busy? Anybody heard anything from Ken lately?... Nope.
Things are just too quiet.
Turn the dial to 180 from where they are....
It just might surprise you.

In reading through most of these recent posts, I am almost ashamed to call myself associated with this board. I have never heard such a bunch of wah wah wah poor pitiful me complainers in my life. The members of this band are almost 70 years old or older. They owe us NOTHING. They have been out there for decades and all you can do is bitch and moan and make goat jokes about Stevie. And it is the same folks over and over who are negative. I think you need an attitude adjustment or maybe you just need to shut the hell up for once.

Go ahead...ban me from this board. Its not like anyone who has a positive outlook is welcome here anyway.

I agree, johnl- I can't believe the sense of entitlement some people are expressing about a new FM album. And the negativity is so unnecessary. I know it's disappointing that it's been awhile since we heard anything official, but the simple fact is, FM lives in another world. They don't have to work, they don't monitor message boards, and they live life for themselves, not their fans, and that's the way it should be. I also know in the age of social media and the internet, we expect immediate gratification and daily updates, but FM has never been known to share things with their fans on Twitter, FB, etc like other bands or singers.

See that's the thing with this board. It's a free forum to express your opinion, make jokes, pass the time, add insight, positive or negative. You won't get banned for doing that.

You get banned when you start purposely causing conflict or ripping on other members. So you're here to stay like the rest of us.

it's interesting to watch how people align with whoever their favorite songwriter is in the band.

most Lindsey and Chris fans want new music, NOW! Lindsey and Christine have been very vocal about how happy they are with the new music they produced, how many songs they have, even giving us titles, and how much they want this new music to be released. and that they may need some clamor to get it out.

in contrast, most Stevie fans are going - leave the band alone, they need a break, why do they need to give us new music, album won't happen, they are old, no clamor please! which is in line with what Stevie has been mostly [not] expressing about new music.

Stevie Nicks, protector of the Realm, ruler of the Seven Kingdoms. We will have a walk of atonement for any who blemish her good name in the light of the Seven! (Game of Thrones ref. ) lol

I've been saying this 1000s posts ago in this very long thread.If they do an album .Thats great.If they dont .No problem with me.Maybe we can put this to bed until something legit happens with this project.I love how Dave S let us in on Stevie's projects.If Mac producers done the same without the sealed tight upper lips .This topic would be summed up and we know whats going on with out the fuss bucketing and on going dwelling about it.

Perhaps the Owners of this site can update 'Fan Corner' to read 'Fan Appreciation Forums' and create an additional forum after 'Chit Chat' for the negative comments and opinions. In the meantime, I agree with LB Freakazoid and the positive views expressed here!
