iTunes/mp3 download of the album. It's not a CD.

Good to see you posting here again!

My point, to distill it down for those who find long posts tiresome, is that I would mind her performing without Fleetwood Mac as an opening act - and I wouldn't be the only one. Few would enjoy a Stevie opening act outside of her hardcores. I think Stevie herself wouldn't find the opening act thing a good idea (again, see my above post).

I agree with everything you said (in both the more complex and the simple posts )-- and suggest, additionally, I don't see Stevie wanting to pay her entire touring band's room, board, luggage, instruments and basic pay for a short set before going on with Fleetwood Mac. It would just be bad business on her part.

it also begs the question, what would be in her solo set? she would have to leave out Dreams, Rhiannon, Sara, Gold Dust Woman, Landslide and replace them with something else.

Given her reluctance to play new, unfamiliar songs, how much of the new album would she realistically do? (I've always found that argument about not doing new songs the audience doesn't know to be suspect-- that in fact was THE reason bands ever toured in the first place. There was no internet, no social media etc back in the day so the ONLY way anyone heard your new songs was live. And they played PLENTY of new songs on the Tusk tour. More revisionist history on her part; but I digress)

And honestly, it puts Stevie in the awkward position of competing with her band… there's ALWAYS some level of competition between openers and headliners in terms of who's set was better received. Also being the opener means you are less "big" than the headliner-- it's a subordinate position. And honestly do you REALLLLLY think Stevie or her camp would EVER accept her in a subordinate role? Reallly???

Even a co-headlining situation wouldn't fly. Stevie's verrry status-conscious and will not be less than top dog. Never.

I know - blows my mind that the people who bought these two copies wouldn't even think to look elsewhere first. A quick google search would have led them to the Warner music store.

Didn't she do quite a few new songs on her "IYD" tours??? Don't forget the "Heart & Soul" tour where she was not the only top dog...

Looks like the "Polaroid" option for the litho may be sold out as you can only "proceed to checkout with the "24Karat" litho...

Funny thing is, the 24 Karat litho was listed as being a "polaroid from stevie's personal collection."

So many people freaked out over the choice of a litho being added later, and automatically assumed that the new one, listed as "polaroid litho" was somehow going to be much cooler.

Many on FB have been cancelling their orders and re-ordering to select the 'polaroid litho'.

Warner has already confirmed that neither image has been selected, and that both will be polaroid lithos.

very true… but that was Rod. She would never play second fiddle to Lindsey. Never.

Lindsey isn't Fleetwood Mac.

I mean, Stevie is not going to open for FM ever, but I don't think it would be playing second fiddle to Lindsey if she did.

The question reminds me of years ago when Janet Jackson was trying to get Michael Jackson to reunite with their brothers for a tour and she said she would gladly be their opening act if the Jacksons got together again. She was still a star at the time and it struck me as being quite an overture on her part.
