Apparently Stevie is working with Dave Stewart on something

I think her live act would interest you if she took advantage of the end of Fleetwood Mac and played Straight Back, Sara, Angel, Seven Wonders, I Don't Want To Know, When I See You Again, Affairs of the Heart, and more.

It is a significant financial and time commitment to go to a concert these days. And for those of us who do not live in the US Stevie is pretty inaccessible anyway. I don't think adding more oldies to the set would help make me more interested. Plus, she cannot sing live like she used to. New music would pull me back in.

And a side of nasal drone...

I still feel Stevie's going to get an album out before Lindsey will. I really thought Lindsey would have had his album out last year! In October 2022, he said he was going to wrap up an album.

After being such a hardcore fan ever since the white album, it feels so strange to have zero interest in $tevie's new music or concerts. It's absolutely true that it's a huge investment to go to a concert these days, (and for all these years, I NEVER missed a show if it was within six hours of me), but I just don't like her anymore, and she comes across as corny and lame. I plan to see the Stones in Philly this year, The Avett Brothers with Melissa Etheridge at Red Rocks, and Dirty Heads in Virginia Beach, and none of those tickets approach the prices of $tevie's cornball snooze-fest oldies act.

I hear she's still dedicating Landslide to Christine, her "best friend in the whole world" who she hadn't talked to in three years before she passed away. I think the dedication is more about making Stevie look good than it is about honoring Christine. If Stevie really cared about what Christine thought, maybe she wouldn't have insisted on firing Lindsey.

Unfortunately Stevie doesn't really write music, unless you count her piano demos (which she has never released as finished songs), so lyrics are all she has to offer - and I for one think she has written some great lyrics over the years. But she has also written a bunch of crap, like "Mabel Normand" or "When I See You Again" ("And she stares at the stairs"), so I really don't know if she releases some new songs whether they will be any good or not. But I hope she releases them anyway.

I can't see 24 Karat Gold: Songs From The Vault being her last studio album. I think she'll have one more true album like In Your Dreams- which I think is a concept album - and not a themeless album like 24KG. But again, I would have loved to have heard more songs live from 24KG like the title track, The Dealer, Watch Chain, Hard Advice, and Mabel Normand live.


At this point, I'd be happy with a setlist like Enchanted Tour where she didn't care about playing hits.
Last night in Dallas, Soldier's Angel and Fall From Grace were not in her setlist.

A 2024 version of the Enchanted tour setlist would be a trainwreck. She gave Gold and Braid a shot a few years ago and it was evident then that her current range could barely do it. She's struggling with Dreams right now, it's hard to imagine her pulling off Whole Lotta Trouble, Sleeping Angel, I Need To Know, and HAEWAFY very well. Heck when was the last time she did Has Anyone Ever!?

So maybe instead of those songs she does: Touched By An Angel, Rooms On Fire, Blue Denim, and Trouble in Shangri-La.

Last concert she did Has Anyone Ever was her Crystal Visions Tour in 2008. I Need To Know was last done in 2007 on the first Crystal Visions Tour. In 2010 and 2011, she did You Wreck Me by Petty.

That will never happen. She's clearly only willing to focus on songs that were either solo or Fleetwood Mac hits. Bella Donna and Wildheart are squeezed in as a medley.

Ironically, the clip I saw of her performing New Orleans (from IYD) last week was probably the least phoned-in performance she's done in a long time.

She only does the song in New Orleans now after doing it for 50 shows on the Songs From The Vault Tour.

I guess that's a nice touch, if you live in New Orleans, or just laziness, if you don't.

The last time she did Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You live was in 2014:

Sorry, yes that's right. I was thinking of concert tours. That 2014 performance was a private event to encourage Emmy consideration for American Horror Story. I think she did Rhiannon at that event too.

It's amazing how she considered the three ballads to close her tours with were Has Anyone, Beauty and the Beast, and Love Is but starting with the Songs From the Vault Tour that changed. She closed with Leather and Lace at the shows I saw, and then in 2022 she closed with Rock and Roll or Rhiannon!
