I can understand Stevie not wanting to hit A LOT of high notes throughout a show in order to make it through a six month tour...but good Lord, woman! Give us something! Surely she can hit at least one or two high notes per song...it's not like it's going to ruin her voice or anything. That version of Gypsy was pitiful. She sings the bridge WAY too low for it to have any emotional impact whatsoever...and when the ending came and she started singing, "I still see your..." I thought to myself, "Belt it girl!!!"...but no, she went low again for "...bright eyesssss..." Boo.
This song should officially be retired from the set in my opinion. I'm considering buying a ticket for Nashville next March. They go on sale Monday. But if the performances are going to be so lackluster, I think I'd rather save my money. Granted I've only seen a few YouTube videos of their shows this past week. Musically it sounds great but where is the passion and love of playing? The performances this morning seemed like a chore to them. Lindsey looked so unhappy during the interview. Sorry to rant. I will FOREVER love this band. I've seen them put on some really great live shows in the past...but the performances here and some of the recent YouTube videos make me worry. |

Talking to a show producer, eh? Maybe Lindsey is trying out for a job at NBC. Chelsea Clinton gave up her lucrative gig, so they've got an opening for him. I suppose Stevie is gearing up for her Morrison Gallery appearance later on. Thank you for the review. Michele |

Don't let the bloggers get you down...they love to hate. Doesn't matter how good or bad someone is. Did Christine sound perfect? No, but it's freaking really early in the am. Any singer will tell how horrible it is to sing that early. Listen to your own voice in the morning and how much deeper it is.

Right on, this is the attitude I love. I agree, I'm going to 2 shows, going to enjoy and rock on. It's the soundtrack of my life.

This may not have been Stevie's best performance of Gypsy but she still easily had the best vocals of the three..Christine seems to have lost her singing ability.. so sad but she is over 70..

Not the best environment to judge whether someone has or has not lost their singing ability. Christine clearly hasn't, she was just flat at times. Probably in part because of the weather and time of day. I didn't think Stevie sounded very good (thought Christine was definitely better and Lindsey sounds like he always does), but I also felt the sound mix didn't do her any favors.

Rock stars don't get up and sing in the morning. All of our voices struggle to get going in the morning when you sing.
I just got the vibe the band was not happy or too interested to do this gig. It is great promotion for the tour but almost every stop is sold out so they don't need to do Today. But FM used the press and Today to promote the extended tour so it makes sense. |

Any time they have performed on The Today Show I have always been disappointed in the performance...but when I see them in the arena setting on whatever tour they are on, they have been amazing!
