Not sure, but the last time she played Dublin solo was November 14th, 1989 .... four days before I was born. I missed her by FOUR DAYS!!!

She's been away far too long. I think the OSOTM tour was her last solo tour that left the States, apart from the Australia outing.

*sigh* One day, my friend, one day.

www.fmlegacy.com tells me that there were three dates in the UK on the OSOTM tour in November of 1989, one Birmigham and two London, which finished off the tour.

Stevie and Lindsey not only reunite for a Buckingham/Nicks World Tour, but they also get back together again. I mean get down and dirty with each other again. Runs off to play Tusk and the love grunts from "Big Love".

I saw her for the first time in '89 at Wembley Arena, such a shame she never made it back on the Timespace, Street Angel, Enchanted, TISL or Gold Dust tours, as far as I remember Stevie was well recieved in the UK and OSOTM got a resonable chart position as did the Rooms On Fire single

Absolutely, it's been so long since she's been over this side of the pond I bet a solo tour would go down a Storm

The Other Side of the Mirror made #3 and Rooms on Fire #16

I still think this is because Stevie did Rooms on Fire on TOTP which was the UK's only main source of the latest music through the 80's..i mean the USA had loads of music shows and MTV but we didn't get MTV until '88 and even then it wasn't very popular until the '90's.

Actually Stevie did TOTP because Rooms On Fire was at number 16. I remember it well and still have it on video. Back then you could only appear on the show in you were already in the chart. The song was played constantly on MTV Europe and I heard it a lot on Radio 1 too. I think it did well because, obviously it's a great single, but also it helped coming off the back of the success of Tango In The Night (That album was huge in the UK.) Stevie got a lot of press here at the time too, with interviews in Melody Maker, Raw, Record Mirror, The Mirror newspaper, to name but a few. All of that helped as well I think.

I saw Stevie at Wembley Arena in 1989 like Neil. It was my first ever concert. Pip from this board was there too. Those dates are the only times she has ever played solo in this country or Ireland.
