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.
DING DING DING!!!

You captured perfektly how I feel about the fanbases, too. Because we're all pretty certain that Stevie has been the holdout on a new album, so she's been getting raked across the coals for it. IF it's true, I say GOOD! It's about time that she was held responsible, rather than shrouded in fairy dust and unicorn farts!

Nothing entitled about my expectation since the band promised this two years ago...and two years before that. Lindsey and Christine still want to create new music. They should just release what they have without waiting for Stevie. It's galling to be told this is a "profound new chapter" and then realize it's the same stale scenario. How are we, who have invested our time, money, and love in a band that disrespects us being entitled? Nonsense.

Christine expressed interest in doing a solo album before she rejoined. I'm particularly upset because that album would have been out by now and I know I would have gotten a lot of listening pleasure from it.

My only hope is that someone in or connected to the band is keeping up with this thread and reporting our dismay to them. It's our only hope of getting word to them that their core fans (of the whole band, not just Stevie) are counting on new music

Say You Will was released in 2003, right? So, that's what, 13 years now. Hmm. A little new music would be nice, but weather it happens or not, I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. And, to be perfectly honest, I'm quite happy just listening to Tusk.

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.

Here's the deal, folks. This thread is about any and all information pertaining to a new FM album. This encompasses rumor, speculation, joy, AND lament. I've said this a dozen times in this thread: once hard proof of a new album surfaces, please do feel free to start a brand new thread. In the meantime (see what I did there? ) it's best to view this thread as nothing more than a vehicle of speculation and venting.

For further clarification: Having a dissenting opinion on the Ledge has never gotten anyone banned. Neither has being overly critical of any given band member. Attacking fellow board members is what gets users into trouble. Lampooning the band members themselves? That's free reign.

Additionally, for those who do not care for the tone and/or content of this thread- by all means, do start a new thread which focuses solely on your love and appreciation of this current incarnation and chapter of Fleetwood Mac history. Since it wouldn't be germane to the topic, any dissent would be removed from the thread by the moderation team.

I can only assume something big is brewing just around the corner.
Lindsey in particular is not one to sit idle. If he knew for sure Stevie would play no part in new music until some point next year (or even never) then he'd surely be busy putting out his own music. Hell, he could have had several albums of solo material out over the past few years, even with all the FM touring. The fact he hasn't makes it clear for me he's been busy finishing off FM's new quadruple studio album.

I'd still guess Mirage>September, Tango>December, new album>early 2017

I agree .Nothing from me being negative on any new album.I love to see some new tunes from them but I'm not going to loose any sleep over this.I will loose sleep worrying about their health as they approach 70 then any thing else. I think all off us agree to that.

So it took 10 months to follow up the Tusk box set with Mirage and you think they'll put out Tango is 3?

The fear of one them passing freaks me out, too. We've already lost Bob Welch.

No, because there's no reason that fans can't be something other than fawning or appreciative. There's no one way, good, bad, right or wrong, to be a fan. In fact, even the definition of the word "fan" (fanatic) doesn't call for positive devotion. Unstinting adoration is not a requirement. You need only be zealous or obsessive. I think we qualify.
