You don't think the market is saturated with Fleetwood Mac just touring last year?

Fleetwood Mac performing on Austin City Limits is one of my biggest dreams! I do wonder if that would ever happen, though. None of Fleetwood Mac's peers have ever appeared on the show (Eagles, Aerosmith, Rolling Stones, Led Zepplin, Pink Floyd, Tom Petty, etc). So it makes me wonder if they don't book those kind of big acts. The show seems to focus more on emerging and lesser known bands... or solo artists who are showcasing side projects apart from their famous bands.

I am a harsh critic of the amount of time Fleetwood Mac takes to record an album, but there's another side to that coin. The EP was recorded quickly, and sounds like a thrown together mess. These 5 haven't recorded a studio album together in nearly 27 years. If they need to take their time to get their groove back and make it right, I'm all for that. I want the last Mac album to be a masterpiece, not something sloppily excreted like the EP.
