The New Album Thread

Of course the past cannot be changed but I feel sometimes like she came back too late. How many more productive years does this band realistically have? Not too many.

they could have probably have a few more albums, instead of endlessly waiting for something or other. maybe Nicks would be out of the band by now if she was as reluctant to record new music as she seems to be lately.

yes! i think you hit the nail on the head, with everything you wrote.

he seemed to have had high hopes for maybe a few more albums and chapters when Christine came back and they clicked so well again. as the time goes on and they can't get Nicks on board he's probably getting tired of spinning his wheels waiting and wasting his prolific phase and he'd settle for at least putting a bow on the whole act with one last album from the 5. or maybe it will have to be 4.
