Can't believe I'm saying this..

no matter what the band is currently saying. While it might not show on the album, it sure shows in the LIVE performance. I hope they figure out how to add her sort of harmonies and beautiful keyboard sounds. As it has been humorously reported, it took two guitarists to replace Lindsey. I think it will take two keyboardists to fill in for Christine. There were two keyboardists on The Dance. I think they're hurting some. Again, not on the album as much as the live shows. Hopefully we'll soon hear more about it on the reviews of the Dress Rehearsal. I don't know how they can make up for the vocal harmonies. I'm hoping the band will figure it out listening to the rehearsal tapes.

She left on her own tho...it was HER decision to leave. Why should they stop making albums just because she left? I don't understand that. You may not like the sound of the album, but MANY do. Lindsey was talking on the E Channel about how the band has the elasticity where people can come and go and the sound can be manipulated....I agree!! This band has a revolving door policy ( ) and that's one reason I LOVE FM so much, I can break out some Bare Trees, go to TPO, break off a lil FG, tear it up with some Rumours and jam out to SYW....all the while basking in SOOOOOO many different sounds and styles!!

BUT, that said, I do understand your complete distaste for the album, because if Lindsey had left (again) and some other guitarist/singer took his place, I'd be BEYOND upset too and not give the new album a chance probably. I would most def TRY tho!!
