this thread just concludes that Lindsey is not happy she was not in the studio with them this year. band implied it in earlier interviews, and Stevie said it about Lindsey now. you stated numerous times that you don't think that's true and that she had a full consent of the band to go off and do her solo stuff instead, that she was not needed in the studio yet.

I still have no doubt she had the band's consent (as if she even needs it).

Stevie having their consent and Lindsey wishing she was in the studio with them instead, are not mutually exclusive things.

I won't bother to get into the rest (the improbability of this group of people intending to finish an album, mix it, master it, work out a track-listing, choose cover art, and rehearse for a major tour all within a 5-month time-frame, and on top of one of the members being treated for and recovering from cancer) -- since apparently that's not what this thread is about.

glad we are on the same page that there's no need to rehash old discussions yet again.

people know where i stand and where you stand on all these points (and if they don't but are interested they can do a quick search and find out ).

moving forward is good.

The bottom line is that Fleetwood Mac is not a full-time band and hasn't been in decades. Lindsey has needed his space (such as right after the SYW tour and that 10-year leave of absence after Tango), and Chris needed a 15-year hiatus. The stars will never align such that everyone is ready to do the exact same thing at the exact same time. They do pretty well at juggling, and they are better at compromising than some people are giving them credit for.

You have me inspiration for great title for their (last?) upcoming album.
