I really don't think that Stevie is still a good stage performer, if you're not in love with her. I always remember her past energy. Maybe it was fueled by cocaine, but I think it was just youth and exuberance. It was natural, like she couldn't contain herself. I remember video where she would jump and she wouldn't even have to bend her knees. It was almost as if she just levitated off the ground for a few seconds in platform heels. It was so effortless.
Now, it's not effortless and instead of changing her performance, like she changes the key to adapt to her current capabilities, she tries to give a nod to the old spins, kicks and physical stunts and they usually strike me as silly, rather than sensational, as in days of yore. More attempt than achievement.
But I still like the songs, so the concerts would still be worth it for those, if I hadn't written her off.

I find her crackhead dance completely embarrassing for her. As in I cringe for her and how it must look to see right now in person.
Never bothered me before because I loved (note the past tense?) her so much. Now she just looks like an idiot.
