I don't know why it's so hard. Especially with all the various fan sites about - you think they would be able to find someone to run it for them reliably.

It actually looks a lot like Stevie's warnerbros website. Same layout and whatnot.

It's by Groundctrl - same as Lindsey's. They're all under Azoff and that bunch.

C'mon now, we're talking about people that didn't know that the internet existed till they learned that it had created piracy that was stealing their music.

Well it will help with ticket purchases, which is all they care about. And I am excited to see the information there on the 14th. I can't wait to know.

As soon as there are no more tickets to sell, they won't update the site anymore.

But they could sell us other merchandise through the website and cut out the middleman. I know it wouldn't generate millions of dollars a year, but I just don't understand them. We do not even have official VIDEOS for heaven's sake. It's a travesty.

Seriously.

I know, seriously. Stevie got her videos on DVD. Shouldn't be that hard for Fleetwood Mac to do the same. Of course Stevie herself didn't do it nor will Fleetwood Mac themselves, but the record company and the "Powers That Be" should.

It is scandalous. They pay people--a lot--to take care of these things.


or maybe they dont....

Fleetwood Mac helped me through a time of heartbreak. 12 years later, they broke my heart.

Well, their management pays them. And, it's still bad. I'm sure the content has to be approved first, but someone should really do that a lot faster than they do. Talk about missing a boat. Hello! They just don't do anything fast, do they?

Oh, you have new photos? Should we put them up on the website when it launches? Nah.

Tour dates? Should we publish those on the website the day the press comes out? Nah.

Somebody really needs to get a little more organized!

It seems obvious this website was thrown together adhoc to coincide with this weeks tour unveiling & press, as well as another resource for ticket information. The new photo's the band took in November at Lindsey's house will most likely accompany the 1st & 2nd singles they throw out to Itunes and radio. I'm sure we will see updated content in the new year. However, I am keeping my expectations low. But anything is better than recycling the same SYW promotional shots like they did for Unleashed!

They forgot the St.Paul date (April 28) on their list of tour dates!
