It did always seem like there was a battle between Stevie and Lindsey to get the last word in during The Chain around this time, with Stevie dropping in last minute 'Yeahs' and moans, and Lindsey dragging out his 'never break the chain' as long as he could...
I think is what I love most about the Mirage Tour. All the extra woah's and yeah's and attempts to be about as different as possible than the recordings. Once you have all the backup singers added on future tours, it's just not as genuine sounding, though I get it...older, less drugs, etc. Go Your Own Way is another gem where Lindsey and Stevie seem to be battling it out to have the last word
