I don't think they've aged well as a band. I can't say I liked all of SYW, and if that album is an indication of the direction that they plan to go in if they record again, I'm not interested. I can't possibly imagine what else they could do, album-wise.

And, honestly, I don't enjoy listening to current Stevie that much. If it wasn't for her between-song chatter I would have had a hard time getting through Soundstage. Especially with Lindsey being as production-happy as he is when it comes to layering vocals and messing with pitch, I would hate for a sound like that to carry over to Stevie's songs. I could see them doing something like that in order to make her sound better.

Does this make any sense? I have to go to bed.

You make perfect sense, and I think you're perfectly correct unfortunately. I think I just get so caught up on the idealistic idea that since Stevie and Lindsey's most current solo albums are the best of their respective careers, that they should be able to channel that into one hellacious Mac album. Unfortunately that's flawed logic. It's kind of like saying: I like steak. I like ice cream. So if I put ice cream on top of my steak that would be really super great!
