However what I'm surprised about is that I thought that this type of shows, full of personal exchanging moments with the fans, would appeal more to the casual fans instead of die hard ones like us, since we now know those stories by heart.

When I go to concert of other bands I appreciates if the members take some little moments to connect with their fans and recount something to us instead of going through the setlist like a schedule and then going away because they did the job we paid for and goodbye. For this reason I appreciated more the shows of Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne while I didn't appreciate as much the show of Aerosmith while generally I enjoy more the music of the latter. I can hear straight performed song whenever I want from CD, but I can only get to "interact" with an artist I like when I go see them perform, and that's part of the reason why I go to concerts in the first place.
ACDC show this year went like this: 1. Play a song 2. Lights go out 3. Lights go back on when next song starts 4. Not one word spoken throughout the show except maybe a thank you at the very end. I hated the flow of that show. No engagement whatsoever. I much prefer Stevie's warm welcoming approach to her show.

Oh and he's mocking Stevie's rehearsed comments but is praising Christie hynds Liz Taylor remark. Even calls it an "ad lib." not knocking chrissie, the pretenders were great, but she's said that Liz Taylor comment at every show the last 3 weeks. Be consistent in your criticism reviewer!
