That was already done, with Say You Will. It only sold moderately better than it's predecessor.

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. :o

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". :sorry:

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.

Actually, Stevie appeared on TOTP when it was at 21...check it out (Damn BBC made the mime):

But Talk To Me and I Can't Wait both made the top 30 I think and no sign of Stevie ANYWHERE on TOTP. Tango was before I was born so I have no idea about it's level of Huge-Ness. What a bummer about OSOTM tour being the only tour to hit the UK..imagine if Wild Heart or Bella Donna hit the UK back in the day that wud have been amazing!
