so out of curiosity I posted a question about this to Dashut when this first came up. He's just gotten to answering it, and despite his earlier protestations that the current tour was NOT all about money, he seems to finally admit the cash grab is indeed a big motivator for much of the band:
Anonymous: Stevie seems to have her knickers in a knot about doing another Fleetwood Mac album after the current tour. She says she can't say whether she will "feel like" doing an album with them when the tour is over or not. What do you make of this? Body language on tour lately seems to indicate some friction between her and Lindsey. (Despite their professionalism, they're human and emotions do show). They were all about how they'd finally resolved differences last tour. WTF do u think is going on?? Dashut: I haven’t seen any of the recent shows lately so assuming what you are saying is correct, (because I have heard this from many others who have seen the show now) I believe we could be seeing signs of conflicting schedules in the future. I know Stevie has a busy solo career going on with her popularity seemingly greater than ever. She probably has many opportunities on her own in the new year and is perhaps feeling frustrated with what I now call “Tour Creep”, or the natural ability of a Fleetwood Mac tour to go on endlessly, making money all the way, which is hard for the other band members to resist. The feeling she could be “trapped” in a successful tour, may be keeping her from her own future vision at a period of life when time is of the essence. After all, she is an artist first. Don’t bet against a new Fleetwood Mac album with Stevie on it, I still believe they will work things out and give history what it wants. This is just my opinion, and my opinion only and take full responsibility for the comments that shall surly follow. |

No. She can tour with them, and they can do albums without her. The exact opposite option should have been offered to Christine when she left. She even offered to record and was denied. That should have been a lesson to everyone.

Ultimately, as I've said, I want the fivesome. I want Stevie to get her issues sorted out. I want an album with all of them. But if Stevie can't decide or isn't sure, the others just need to confront her about it and *tell* her they are moving forward with the album, whether she's on board or not.

I think half is optimistic. The first tour after Stevie? Sure. After that? I bet they'd be playing the same places in Denver that bands like Franz Ferdinand, and Fiona Apple are playing - old theatres with a 500 to 2500 seat capacity, maximum.

It does not matter who wants what or why because if they keep dragging their feet about making decisions and wasting time the "Grim Reaper" will make the decision for them...

I honestly think the media would demonize her considerably. They would pit her against the band (Lindsey), and make it a big thing. I don't think she would want that publicity, but I could be wrong.
In the end, If she has some great ideas and songs up her sleeve than she needs to do what's best for that material. But I'd rather have a great Fleetwood Mac album than ANOTHER tired, safe solo album with Dave Stewart that will sell at a mediocre level and not add anything worthwhile to her legacy. But that's just me. |

What's interesting, especially in the context of this discussion, is that she also said:

The better parallel is with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. Even when Neil is gone, Crosby, Stills & Nash are still able to function as a viable band. Although, Stevie Nicks is nowhere near as important to Fleetwood Mac's popularity (ability to sell tickets) as Neil is to CSN(Y). Fleetwood Mac was bigger overall than CSNY, and Stevie's solo career pales in comparison to Neil Young's career, but then Neil is bigger than any band he's been in.

Not me.
In Your Dreams and/or 24 Karat Gold trump anything on that God-awful EP they released. Talk about mediocre. Jamie
