Destiny Rules Live??
 

At 9:00 there is professional recording of them doing Destiny Rules. Does anyone have the full video??

Man, that sounded awesome.

"You see people walking around with bottles of designer water now. It was like, you know, in those days people just walked around with bottles of designer coke."

:D :D :D

Don't you just love her?

Destiny Rules
 

I just love this band. They are the absolute best. I really wish they kept Destiny Rules in the set list. I think it make it one show. Not sure why - it is so good.

That was beautiful! I loved Stevie's bangs like that- she's so cute!!!

Destiny Rules would have been a great song and it really doesn't make too much since that they axed it from the set.

Too bad... seems that whole rehearsal was recorded, and they sounded really good.

Destiny Rules was live for a minute or two
 

At a sound stage in Burbank in April 2003, I was lucky enough to have the privilege of experiencing the dress rehearsal for the "Say You Will" tour. They opened with an amped-up version of "Eyes of the World." The set list included "Destiny Rules" and "Running Through the Garden," both of which I liked better live than on the CD, especially "Garden." I think both songs were dropped within the first three or four live dates, and they went back to opening with "The Chain." Oh well. Oh well. Oh well.

"Running Through the Garden" didn't make it past opening night, sad to say, as it was awesome live (I was lucky enough to hear it performed). It was fast-paced, Stevie got into it, and Lindsey's guitar solo rocked. There's Columbus bootlegs out there if you wanna hear it.

"Destiny Rules" made two more shows before it was dumped. Another shame - it was terrific. I especially liked the way she ended it, which was different from the album version.

Oh well. Stevie has admitted how loath she is to perform new material live. She seems paranoid that the members of the audience will leave in droves, or that there will be a Rick Nelson "Garden Party" type booing. At least they kept "Goodbye Baby" and the title track.

Would anyone happen to have this???? :)

Here you go. ;)

Thanks!!! How good was this show overall???

Loved it, thanx for posting:thumbsup:

Thanks a lot for posting these. Can't wait to listen to Running Through The Garden!

See for yourself. Thanks to Steve for the videos.

It'll be on the Rumors CD/DVD compialation for the "Uneashed" tour ... LMAO

It's really a shame they dropped those songs. They performed them so well, yet they never gave them a chance; they could have become well-known staples/classics. And I like the idea of opening the show with Eyes of the World, as they apparently did in the rehearsal shows.

I hate that they don't have the balls to shake up their shows. It's obvious from the clips that the audience were into the new songs. Why does the band cling to the predictability of opening with The Chain, then kill the energy with Dreams? Why do they dismiss that fans do want to see them play new songs? But do so-called "fans" really want to hear new songs?

I don't like hearing people express the band have to "open with this" and they have to "play that." A rock and roll show shouldn't be Vegas; it shouldn't rote and staid ---just to please a casual fan. You want ritual? You want the predicatable? Go to church! If you truly appreciate music and love a particular band, you wouldn't give a sh*t what they play, as long as they perfom well and the show is fresh and inspired. I've have friends take me to shows of bands I'm totally unfamiliar with, yet amazingly I can still enjoy it without knowing any of the songs.

When did their mentality shift; when did they start having revervations about selling their new songs in a live setting? All of their old songs were new at one point in time! It is for certain the music/entertainment industry and it's audience has changed significantly from a generation ago. It's become so heavily corporatized; and some of the audiences have followed suit, and there is a certain expectation that must be met. Thus, some older bands feel they must to be a juke box and pander to the masses, and new songs must be regulated to a small corner. Anything that is unfamiliar is an good excuse for a bathroom break. That's why the set list stays the same. That's why the few new songs get dropped or are played on one tour and never heard from again. And the distinct creativity in a new show is gone.

Elton John made a very ballsy move when he played a huge show just after his great album Captain Fantastic was just released. He came out and announced he was going to perform the entire album (he did do many well know songs after it). and his attitude was basically "take it or leave it...this is what it is!" I love that!

Most people don't realize how the music industry has changed so drastically in the last few year decades, and overall the victim is music and the true artists who perform it. Anyways....whatever. Destiny rules that I should be running to my garden and take a big dump.
