Stevie, Rick and Billy

[blinker12]

I excerpted this from a transcript of a 1987 press conference with the Mac, right before the Tango tour. (The transcript was posted on the fabulous FM site, burnish.net.)
I found this excerpt interesting because Stevie seems quite noncommittal about working with the revamped band again in the studio. Especially her weird little remark to Christine after she talks about making another album: "Interesting." As in, "what the hell are you talking about?? Make an album with these guys?"
It just makes me wonder how enthusiastic she was about the new line-up. Any thoughts?

Press: What's up after the tour?

Christine: After the tour? Hopefully this configuration will go in and make a record.

Stevie: Interesting.

Press: Will the solo careers continue?

Christine: Solo careers are definitely still going to be happening. I mean, at some point in the future, I'd like to make another solo album. But at this point, this particular incarnation of the band is very exciting to me and I would have no reason to pick any other players than these, you know.

Press: Stevie?

Stevie: I was pretty much scheduled to go in to do a solo album now. So I just have made other plans until this tour is over and then I'll just decide then. I don't think there's any way, you know... It's really hard to say what you're going to do after a ten week tour, you know. We may never come back.
