true, forgot about that!

i was thinking of DR doc where Lindsey was talking about FM album, than a tour, than another FM album, and another tour.... so his initial plan didn't seem to be solo after the SYW tour, but somebody must have disagreed with another FM album and a tour, back to back, no? so maybe that's when he decided he wants a preset timeframe so that it's not "you do or you don't" with the band? hard to tell. all we know was his initial plans in DR doc (which sounded eerily similar to the beginning of this tour and long profound chapter in FM with albums and tours back to back.... the man never learns it seems?), and then that he asked for 3 years for solo.

i don't know who's too blame but 2 albums in 9 years for the band in their prime is hardly any output.

yeah that's been very clear. whether it is because she doesn't have any inspiration to write new music, doesn't have any interest to work with the band members, or wants to secure her solo legacy not as a part of the band, is unclear, but obviously other than repeated cash grabs she has no interest in any creativity with the band.
