Why would he be nervous? After years of experience, even with a new band, hard to believe he would be nervous.

It may have been because these were some of his first solo shows. He had left the band and considered himself a solo artist at this point. Plus, I don't think he played many live shows between 82-93, which is a long time not to be performing live. I remember he played on 2 songs on one of the BTM shows. Other than that I don't remember him playing live. I just remember his hands noticeably shaking at times when he wasn't playing.

He did play "Never Going Back Again" and "I'm So Afraid" for the Tough On Toxins Benefit concert in 1986. But other than that, he really didn't do any live performances during that era.

I saw him in Philly on that tour, like 2nd row. He was amazing, sounded and looked fantastic. I was so thrilled to be there, I can't even remember many details about the show. I was just so floored by his brilliance.

I never understood why Lindsey didn’t play the first two singles off Out of the Cradle on his tour. Even if they weren’t hits, and even if he didn’t pick them as singles, why not perform the songs that may have been what exposed him to new fans? And seeing how he performed Countdown on Letterman, it almost boggles the mind that he didn’t perform it on the tour- he sounded great and he clearly was enjoying playing it.
