Is it best to put this band to rest?

NOOO

You Idiot. Could you just leave this place and try not to come back.

Well i can't say I'm terribly excited...another child means a delay for whatever could possibly be released by the Mac in the future. And damnit, I'm selfish with my MAC MUSIC!

As far as the comment made about fleetwood mac hanging it up? Whatever man. Maybe you're not fan after all. And Dashboard Confessional suck. Chris Carraba is a hack. I met him in Atlanta years ago and the guy is very, very unappreciative.

Ironically, I'm not at all someone who romanticizes Lindsey & Stevie's relationship.
Whom they're with off-stage is of no importance to me... just so long as they're making music.

I just thought I'd make a little joke, and hopefully make a couple people smile or laugh.

My bad.

4 Buck-You write some of the most abusrd, out of left field posts on this board. I am sure most are to get a rise out of people and not intended as relevant, as they are grounded in the same reality as those who believe in life on Pluto.

The PBS taping boston was for 1000 invited guests. No tickets were sold. The next with the Fleet Center set up for a capcity of 18,000 the show drew 17,000. This after playing two sold out days at Worcester Centrum in late May to nearly 30,000 people combined.

At MSG there were only 1700 unsold seats. The night grossed just over a million dollars. Not bad for having played dates at the Meadowlands Arena, Uniondale, Jones Beach, & Bridgeport, in the last few months. As long as these shows gross about 750,000k they are breaking even. The only show not to do that was Grand Forks. 750,000 covers all the expenses related to the production, personnel, travel, arena etc., plus the guarantee to the band. After that its profit for the band, promoters, management, etc. 1 loss out of 70 plust dates is amazing.

As for Say You Will Warners' expectations were 100,000 copies the first week with eventual platinum status. It sold over 200k the first week and has sold about 800k to date.

As for not being able to do anymore album work because of children. Many peolpe with children go to work everyday without the spectre of having months on end to take off and work from home. Again that probably escapes your reality on Pluto.

Oh Yeah-Congrulations to Mr. and Mrs. Buckingham. May their marriage and children continue to be a spark to create wonderful and inventive new songs. Hopefully the band continues to enjoy such mass popularity, but if not, I am sure I will enjoy the work Lindsey and Fleetwood mac do in the future.

A bit too defensive on that one, I think.

Wonderful news for Lindsey and the Mrs. I couldn't be happier for them. As a new papa myself, I know there is no more joyous event than bringing a child into your life.

I have no doubt Lindsey will continue to be the awesome creative force he has always been. He will have yet another source of inspiration.

It's a wonderful thing.
