Why a solo tour instead of a 40th anniversary tour with Fleetwood Mac????

Just going by the length of their tenures as "official" members....

Mick (40 years)
John (40 Years - #2 behind Mick because Bob Brunning played bass briefly at the very beginning)
Stevie (27 years total)
Christine (26 years - not counting the years when she made "guest appearances" on early Mac recordings)
Lindsey (24 years total)
Billy (9 years)
Jeremy (5 years)
Danny (5 years)
Rick (5 years)
Peter (4 years)
Bob Welch (4 years)
Dave Mason (4 years)
Bekka (4 years)
Bob Weston (3 years)
Dave Walker (approx. 6 - 8 months)
Bob Brunning (a few weeks)

Somehow it just feels too soon to bring FM back especially if there is no new material... Maybe by that time Buckingham Nicks will have been considered the new material to release and they could get out and back that up with a tour... That would be something to look forward to moreso then a FM tour, IMO.

Agreed, but I'm not sure in what order this all should occur. I love that Lindsey is doing his own thing and enjoying it, but on the other hand I fear it might be overload if he does two albums and two extensive tours in a row. Maybe it would be better to switch from solo to FM back to solo again. Definitely looking forward to the BN thing, but I think that should be done after FM. You know, completing the cycle. Thanks, Lindsey.
