In an ideal universe, I would have liked Christine to have wanted to be in SYW and been happy about it. Likewise, Stevie in BuckVie, but with her voice and songwriting talent in better shape. Dreaming is free.

Anyway if I had to choose, I'd go for BuckVie.

I thought she DID want to be a part of the project but absolutely didn't want to tour.. so her participation was discouraged. That's basically what john said when he wasked in his q&a about this... Something about how she "maybe, might be , could be" part of the album if she didn't have to go on the road..and I guess they didn't see the point of her being involved if she couldn't promote the project.

Which is kind of sad, I think they should have let her do whatever she was comfortable with of she expressed a desire to do so. It made no sense to me because john ALSO said he thought her In the Meantime album had some good stuff on there but said it could have been better if he and mick and lindsey could have added to it. So.. why didn't he push for her to be more involved in Say You Will??! 😞
