They got pretty creative visually. I know one time you could see Mick's drum and as his hands hit the skin, you could see Stevie's face in the circle.
Their use of a young Stevie look alike in one of the videos really got me wishing that they would incorporate some old FM footage into the background videos some time.
Stevie does it for her solo show and I would really like to see FM do it. I understand that when you are trying to escape the label of being a nostalgia act, you really want to shy away from doing that: putting up dated film that reminds everyone how long past your hey day you really are. And you don't want to give people the impression that your accomplishments are in the past and you aren't doing something fresh and current of which you're equally proud. BUT if you limit memory lane to one song, what can it hurt?
I'd love to see vintage FM footage playing behind them for at least one song on the next tour.
