They certainly didn't have to immediately book a tour. A more reasonable and measured plan would have been to work on a new album, then tour next year.
It wouldn't have clashed with Stevie's plan, and it would have given Christine more time to ease herself back into the band and the public eye. But she seems to be adjusting to her radical change in lifestyle just fine. She appears invigorated by reconnecting with the music and all the social activity that comes with it.

She expressed not looking forward to all the packing and unpacking on tour. I'd happily be her official packer/unpacker. Hire me, Christine! I'll make your life on the road all the more easier.
