Oh, I think it would do well too, but my definition of "well" for FM in 2014 is very different from FM in 1977 or Taylor Swift in 2012. I see a new album opening in the Top 10, probably staying there for a couple of weeks and then dropping off quickly. A big radio hit is a long-shot. SN and LB have written radio-worthy tunes in the last decade, but the band is just too old for that. Radio plays the new hits by young artists and the classic hits by the older ones.

The thing is, Fleetwood Mac is one of those iconic bands that everybody knows and a lot of people like or love because of a deep catalog of well-known songs. But I don't think the average concert-goer really knows who is in the band, besides maybe Stevie. The Eagles, arguably the only band bigger than FM in the 70s, are the same way. Most people wouldn't be able to tell you their convoluted personnel history; they just know that they will hear a bunch of big hits if they go to their show. That's why I don't think Christine's return can really transform the Mac much from what they are now. Sure we will all love to see her, but I just don't see that the attendance and ticket prices can go much higher.
