I think Lindsey's creative output in the last three years only underscores Stevie's lack of output. It seems more than a little ironic that it's Lindsey now who is enjoying a thriving solo career, along with his work in Fleetwood Mac.

It's not an age thing. It's a Fleetwood Mac thing. I just find it so hard to believe that back when the FM members were in their late 40's/early 50's during The Dance era, they were already considered to be among the old irrelevant rock 'n' roll dinosaurs, and FM pretty much played to that stereotype by dwelling on the past and failing to remain contemporary. By sharp contrast, today we have artists in that same 40's/50's age range like U2, Madonna, Annie Lennox, Sheryl Crow, etc. who are not only totally relevant/contemporary, they are still forging new artistic territory for themselves. And even older artists like Carly Simon (almost 64) and Paul McCartney are still cranking out new music and delving into uncharted territory. For someone who claims to be so current on newer music like Rihanna, Coldplay and Feist, Stevie appears to surround herself in a retro time warp. I am not expecting Stevie to start a Facebook page and twittering her daily activities; but she should at least come to grips with the current state of the world and try to make the best of it.
