Ft. Lauderdale Show

[Songbird4]

Hey Guys....

Alex (greatdarkwing) just checked in from the Ft. Lauderdale show. Wanted me to let you know it's the same Dreams setlist from Vegas. Currently she is singing Stand Back. Stevie's having/had ear monitor problems and is NOT very happy about it. In fact she cursed about it and thinks the audience deserves a free show!! :laugh: He did say that her vocals are awesome though.

I'll let you know if I hear anything else!!

~Kim

[UnwindedDreams]

OMG...this is too funny:lol:

[WildInTheWind]

I believe the quote was "high f*cking tech!" :lol:

[UnwindedDreams]

Hows the energy and dancing...is she on?

[Songbird4]

Yes, that's the quote.

Alex says she is off. At least she is giving them good vocals. I'm sure she's screwed up cause of the monitors

~Kim

[estranged4life]

Hopefully someone is recording this show.

[UnwindedDreams]

Everything going ok over there:laugh:

[Livia]

"If you f*ck with my ear monitor, I'm gonna get really f*ckin' angry!" :laugh:

[jkmaletic]

I believe the quote was "high f*cking tech!" :lol:

That's f*cking great!! I've never had the pleasure of hearing our Queen cuss live. Lucky Ft. Lauderdale people! :woohoo:

[Kelly]

That's f*cking great!! I've never had the pleasure of hearing our Queen cuss live. Lucky Ft. Lauderdale people! :woohoo:

There is something so sexy about Stevie cursing. :nod: I love all the demos with her banter and sailor talk. "it's that FU*KING note, that fu'king note!"
It was also hot when Lindsey cursed at the audience member over in England during SYW. "get the FUC* outta here". :D

[strandinthewind]

"If you f*ck with my ear monitor, I'm gonna get really f*ckin' angry!" :laugh:

LMAO :woohoo: :woohoo:

[Songbird4]

Show's out. Alex is pissed. The crowd was soooo bad. Security didn't let anyone up for the Edge walk. She went to go shake hands and there wasn't anyone there, so she just bowed and then went back and sang the rest of the song. Alex almost got into a fist fight with some random guy. Hopefully by the time he gets home, he will be in a better mood and give everyone a few more details.

~Kim

[strandinthewind]

I am a little disappointed she did not change the setlist a little. Maybe she will in May. Otherwise, I'll probably see her here, but I am not spendind a thousand dollars to see the same show. Lord Child - I am getting old :laugh:

[JazmenFlowers]

omg. I totally dreamed she would have monitor problems, not at this particular show, but just in general. that is so weird.

[Songbird4]

:sorry: Now that Alex is calmer he says it was the Dreams setlist minus HSML and IAF.

~Kim

[golden braid]

:sorry: Now that Alex is calmer he says it was the Dreams setlist minus HSML and IAF.

~Kim

Bummer. :rolleyes: I expected nothing new but it's still disappointing. Thanks for the updates though.

[strandinthewind]

Bummer. :rolleyes: I expected nothing new but it's still disappointing. Thanks for the updates though.

I think for the May set we will see duets for Solitary Man and It's Late - maybe another cover like Circle Dance and R&R. IF she were smart, she would do high harmony on Wicked Game and Spanish Sky - which would send me into orbit!

[michaelD]

:sorry: Now that Alex is calmer he says it was the Dreams setlist minus HSML and IAF.

~Kim

She needs to mix it up...

[JazmenFlowers]

IF she were smart, she would do high harmony on Wicked Game and Spanish Sky - which would send me into orbit!
child! the hell you say! can we weep together?

this is the prayer I'm sending up tonight, for sure. Wicked Games would be amazingly sexy.

[SandyMac]

Damn, It sounds like the venue owes Stevie a HUGE apology and more percentage of the ticket sales because of this.

Stevie, ya gotta get a new ear monitor or hire a better stage hand or something. I will volunteer. :wavey:

I hope the next show goes smoother.

[HejiraNYC]

:sorry: Now that Alex is calmer he says it was the Dreams setlist minus HSML and IAF.

~Kim

Sooo... then what replaced HSML and IAF? HAEWAFY? Circle Dance? I would be really pissed if she shortened a show that was already short to begin with. :mad:

[SandyMac]

Sooo... then what replaced HSML and IAF? HAEWAFY? Circle Dance? I would be really pissed if she shortened a show that was already short to begin with. :mad:

Man, I hope she adds at least HSML back in the Vegas set. I am going to finally see her in Vegas and I have never seen HSML done live in concert before in person. That song/Stevie just oozes sex appeal.

[Dena]

I just got back from the FL show and I agree about the crowd! I looked at my husband when she said the F word and said "Did she just say F***? LOL, she doesn't curse on stage!!" Anyway, she did not sing HAEWAFY. She did look so beautiful during BATB, though. I think that one would have sounded prettier sung alone without the 3 birds of Rhiannon. I was on the floor and couldn't see (since this venue didn't have screens). I was wondering why she didn't shake hands during the Edge walk. She finally did take a few things from the audience and shook a few hands at the far end of the stage.

[johnny4406]

She was so angry.. Karen looked like she was going to get fired.. hahhaa

"You know.. why create technology if this is going to happen...

...this would never happen with teleprompters

... ****ing technology"



I was so shocked that she cursed.

She's so hard on herself.. a perfectionist..

I hate that about her.

Thats probably why she doesnt want to make new music; her perfection would confine her to a studio for 2 years or more.

I think she was great. Amazing. Better than Vegas.

Relax, next time you go, you can have a few more drinks and not worry about your bladder problems. :lol:

LOL you rock :thumbsup:

Thanks man! We bitch and complain, but Stevie's true fans will never get TIRED of her. She's in MY blood till my dying day.

[Josh2003]

I AM DONE WITH STEVIE NICKS, HOWEVER,

If she doesn't change it up a bit this summer, I'll have to seriously think about whether I want to shell out the money to go see her...

[johnny4406]

Thanks man! We bitch and complain, but Stevie's true fans will never get TIRED of her. She's in MY blood till my dying day.

Yeah we whine


But then attend as many shows as we can


And put up with the same setlist, every year


I love her!!!!!!!

[jwd]

I love her!!!!!!!

ME TOO! :laugh:

[GardenStateGirlie]

If she doesn't change it up a bit this summer, I'll have to seriously think about whether I want to shell out the money to go see her...

i'll go for free with work if the opportunity presents itself. if not, i won't go at all. i've been listening to the same concert since the first vegas show -- it was exciting then. not so much now. of course, i think we've established the shows she's doing aren't for hardcore fans but rather those nostalgia tripping or else she wouldn't have the same setlist and tour at every opportunity with said setlist. the only thing that will be exciting for me is what she'll sing with chris.

[GardenStateGirlie]

Alex almost got into a fist fight with some random guy.

:laugh: i have a picture in my mind -- it's very clear.

[jwd]

You need to get juiced up! Have a good time Debbie Downer!

[estranged4life]

Maybe the 'usual suspects' will have recorded this show and make it available via DVD, I so want to see Stevie say "f**king technology" :nod: :lol: :laugh:

I know. I mean she has GOT to know that the set list is tired. If she has to sing the hits, which I agree she does, then at least change out:

Enchanted
Outside the rain
Sorcerer
Fall From Grace
Rock and Roll
Beauty and the Beast

Those were not hits and she could put lesser known songs there. MIX IT UP GIRL!!!!!!!!!

and get some new brightly colored outfits while your at it :nod:

[wheart]

Well, sadly, the highlight for me was the whole cursing incident. It was downhill from there. Her vocals were great but this had to be one of her lowest energy shows I've ever seen. I kept waiting for her to "kick in" but it never happened. Very, very uninspired. I'm not sure how much of that was due to her monitor problems. I wouldn't even have minded the setlist if she had put a little more energy into the whole thing. Her outfits were exactly the same as her Gold Dust shows except for the first few songs when she wore the Superbowl ensemble. Sorry to say it folks, but this show was disappointing.

[TpaDavid]

I saw Heart perform there last spring and security wouldn't let anyone to the front of the stage, because , get this the tribal chief didn't want anyone blocking his view from the front row. After several songs Ann Wilson gave the OK and we made our way to the front of the stage.
I am sorry to miss a Stevie show, but I will never attend a show at that venue again .....

[danax6]

She was so angry.. Karen looked like she was going to get fired.. hahhaa

"You know.. why create technology if this is going to happen...

... ****ing technology"
This alone is worth getting the boot for, forget the rest of the show.

[skcin]

This alone is worth getting the boot for, forget the rest of the show.

Exactly. :wavey: It's going to become the NEW "swearing show."

[ontheEdgeof17]

Wow.:shocked:

What a bummer of a show. A VERY short setlist, to say the least.

[BTFLCHLD]

"You know.. why create technology if this is going to happen......this would never happen with teleprompters... ****ing technology" are those her exact words?

[bikerchic]

Wow, the same setlist. How dissapointing. I'm surprised, but not surprised, if that makes sense. :distress: Obviously she doesn't read the Ledge :laugh:

Unless Stevie comes to Toronto or Buffalo, I WILL NOT spend another dime on travelling for her :mad:

[johnny4406]

are those her exact words?

Yep

I guess she meant that back in the day
teleprompters worked better than having that portable walkie talkie ear piece thing


I cant believe she said **** and ****ing

She rocks :blob2:

[GardenStateGirlie]

[carrie721]

to be fair, she is canadian. she's debbie dooner. :wavey:

[michaelD]

Maybe she was sufferering from a Super Bowl hangover? LOL
Maybe she was a Bears fan, and was still disappointed?

Hopefully, she'll pick it up, and MIX IT UP!!!

Maybe Chris Issac will provide her with some energy and inspiration.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Am I the only one that isn't ****ting in their pants over Stevie saying ****?:cool:

[Livia]

Yep

She rocks :blob2:

Did I miss something? When did she say "****?"

She still uses a teleprompter. That was Cory's job on the SYW tour. :nod: The teleprompter and the ear monitor are for two different things.

[GardenStateGirlie]

to be fair, she is canadian. she's debbie dooner. :wavey:

that? was good.

[danax6]

Am I the only one that isn't ****ting in their pants over Stevie saying ****?:cool:I'm not ****ting my pants, but at least it's something new. ;) Well, fairly new.

[bikerchic]

k. I'm Canadian, I don't get it :confused: :wavey:

[Rickypt]

I am a little disappointed she did not change the setlist a little. Maybe she will in May. Otherwise, I'll probably see her here, but I am not spendind a thousand dollars to see the same show. Lord Child - I am getting old :laugh:

I know, I'm rethinking Vegas. Definitely will do a local Eye Sack/Crystal Visions/Two Voices though.

Sounds awful about last night.

[Rickypt]

Am I the only one that isn't ****ting in their pants over Stevie saying ****?:cool:

Nope, my undies are quite clean as well. I think it's terrible that Stevie was put in a position where she was so angry. The whole show sounds like a nightmare.

[ontheEdgeof17]

I know, I'm rethinking Vegas.

Ditto. I'm not spending money to go out there. It's ashame, too.

[strandinthewind]

Ditto. I'm not spending money to go out there. It's ashame, too.

I LOVED hanging with you and the rest -- but I think there are other shows where we could do that, though it ain't Vegas, etc.

Sad to me - sort of the end of an era if you will.

[Rickypt]

:sorry: Now that Alex is calmer he says it was the Dreams setlist minus HSML and IAF.

~Kim

WTF?

That's like a 70 minute show.

[Rickypt]

I LOVED hanging with you and the rest -- but I think there are other shows where we could do that, though it ain't Vegas, etc.



How about New York, L.A. or SF Bay Area during Crystal Visions Tour?

[ontheEdgeof17]

I LOVED hanging with you and the rest -- but I think there are other shows where we could do that, though it ain't Vegas, etc.

NYC anyone? :woohoo:

[strandinthewind]

NYC anyone? :woohoo:

Let's see the set list first.

I LOVE NYC though and NYC costs me little because I have a free place to stay and it's on the correct train line!!!!!

[bikerchic]

If the Vegas shows are the same setlist and same outfits as 2005, that is just pathetic :distress:

[ontheEdgeof17]

Let's see the set list first.

I LOVE NYC though and NYC costs me little because I have a free place to stay and it's on the correct train line!!!!!

Well, if she plays Radio City Music Hall, I'm so there.....I've never been inside of it....just out front of it.

[danax6]

I hope you guys will all be eating your own shoes come March because she added something new to the setlist.

Probably not, but I still hope so. Boohoo to yoohoo. :lol:

[skcin]

I could probably try for NYC. Flights from here are like $70 each way. I'd only go if other Ledgies were going, though. And if they come here, or to Toronto, Cleveland or Pittsburgh, all bets are off.

Huge disappointment in the setlist. :( Let's pray we get something different while she's officially touring to promote the GH CD/DVD this summer.

[Rickypt]

I'm there if people go. :wavey:

[strandinthewind]

. . . Huge disappointment in the setlist. :( Let's pray we get something different while she's officially touring to promote the GH CD/DVD this summer.


I just remember when The Enchanted tour happened and she hauled crap out of the cellar - I mean we got Garbo, Sleeping Angel, Rose Garden, After the Glitter Fades, etc. She also sang like 18 songs each show -

Outside The Rain
Dreams
Enchanted
Gold Dust Woman
Gold and Braid
Stop Draggin' My Heart Around
After The Glitter Fades
Garbo
Rose Garden
Sleeping Angel
Stand Back
Rhiannon
Whole Lotta Trouble
Landslide
Twisted
Edge of Seventeen
I Need to Know (encore)
Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You (encore)

And - she did that cool acoustic part that ended with Slleping Angel, which she nailed.

I just do not get why she is so uninspired lately, esp. when Circle Dance was great and she was electric in the Petty shows.

Come on Stevie - haul some oldies out of the cellar and get a new dress or ten!!!!!!

[rbs3676]

WEAR SOME NEW CLOTHES, DAMNIT!

I mean, as a woman, doesn't she get sick of looking into her tour trunk and go, "God, I'm so sick of these clothes!"???? I just don't get it.

And while she does look good in black, a new color every now and then won't kill her. I mean, Prince doesn't even wear purple anymore....

rbs

and let me add to that - that BS white lace skirt she's been working to death in the last three years is DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!

I mean the shawl changes on the last leg of the SYW tour were fab, but darlin' go to Marshall's if your a hurtin for cash and buy a red dress! DO NOT EVER HAUL OUT IN THAT TIRED BLACK SKIRT AGAIN - EVER

[DashingDan]

There's been talk of a "teleprompter" breakdown at her show..so, you mean to tell me that if the words to Stand Back aren't scrolling past her she won't be able to remember them? I've never noticed her reading a teleprompter before, but I guess the time has come. It seems so lame to me if it's true.

Almost all musicians I know have them on stage. It is real easy to get lost in a song and the TP is a security net if you will. I think in this instance, she was talking about the speakers directly in front of her mic that allow her to hear herself sing instead of relying on the IED - it is hard to hear yourself and others on stage - thus, these devices.

You would be suprised of how many singers use telepromters...

Will your house be done and able to accomodate all of us? :woohoo:

...or the small stage in Times Square.

Now, that would be the ****.

[UnwindedDreams]

??? Nokia Theatre?

[DashingDan]

You would be suprised of how many singers use telepromters...

*sigh* So not rock.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Well, I just thinking just a stage in the middle of the street. haha.


A theater they use for Broadway Shows would be nice, too.....small, with great acoustics.

[HejiraNYC]

Will your house be done and able to accomodate all of us? :woohoo:

Hmmm... it's going to be a close call. It *may* be done, but that doesn't mean I will have any furniture yet. :eek: Bring your sleeping bags!!

[Rickypt]

or MSG:D ...I'll be there

And then we'll do the Mohegan show the next night. So I can drink free wine and be horrified by the art.

[Rickypt]

Maybe Stevie will do the Today show concert Fridays thingy?

I know, but let's keep in mind:

Then: She had just gotten off The Dance tour & was enjoying a resurgence in popularity. She was very proud of the box set, and Behind The Music & Storytellers was all over TV. Lots of confidence.

Now: Superbowl pregame appearance had some going "wow, she's still around?" However, touring with Petty last year was a great idea. It can do nothing but help her.


Then: She hadn't toured solo in 4 years & was in great voice. Anything would have been fresh & new, although the setlist did end up being a wonderful shock.

Now: She's been touring every year since 2001 (except '02), either solo or with Mac. The past 20 months she's toured on & off with NOTHING to support. Yes, she's tossed in IFA, HSML, R&R, CD on & off, but that's it. There's no reason for her to change things up, she's realxing, having fun & making some cash while she's at it.



The above is why I'm hoping that she WILL make some changes to the set - she'll have something new to get excited about. And since it's a GH package, she really should play some songs that are actually on the CD/DVD to support it - like the Timespace tour. Dump Enchanted, put in Talk To Me. Do Blue Denim and/or I Can't Wait. Make sure IFA stays in. Etc.

[UnwindedDreams]

And then we'll do the Mohegan show the next night. So I can drink free wine and be horrified by the art.
:laugh: She'll do MSG Friday night and Mohegan on Saturday...:woohoo: :blob2: :blob1: :)

Make sure IFA stays in. Etc.

As much as we hope and want her to, she will not sing anything from '86-'94. Talk To Me was too difficult to record, let alone sing it live now, with a lower tone in her voice. Songs from Street Angel? Forget it.

[Musicman408]

I'm going to be really honest here........

I'm really dissapointed to hear that she hasn't changed the set list, but not only that, she cut AMAZING songs like HSML....

I have never seen Stevie solo, and I just want to be blown away when I see her this summer. I am worried that her voice will be even more fatigued and uninspired.

I wish I could figure out a way I could meet Stevie during the tour, but all my attempts so far have failed, so maybe it just wasn't meant to be, but oh well.

Hope you all are well.

Much Love,
Ethan

[strandinthewind]

I think her voice sounds okay. There is a clip of the concert (Landslide) up on the 7W board (all due credit given and thanks again to the poster!!!!!!) - and she sounds and looks good. So, if you are into the GH and the same non-GH songs, by all means have at it :cool:

[Josh2003]

Yes, this FL setlist makes me unhappy. Greatly. If this ends up being the setlist for the summer tour, I would seriously have to think long and hard about whether or not I want to pay to see the same show again (although I know I probably will...but I won't travel far!).

Having said that though, and maybe I am being overly optimistic, I do think she'll change it up for the summer. She'll have more time for rehearsal between now and May. Clearly she snatched Brett and Taku up from Lindsey, so would they have had time to rehearse anything new for these FL shows? I'm not sure. I'd like to think that it's possible...but maybe she would just rather debut the new setlist with the new tour?

I don't know. Girl better step it up if she wants to keep her fans as avid as she has the ability to!

[HejiraNYC]

Clearly she snatched Brett and Taku up from Lindsey, so would they have had time to rehearse anything new for these FL shows?

Really? This is news to me... I thought this was still up in the air or that Taku had jumped ship to be with Janet Jackson. :shrug:

[GardenStateGirlie]

Girl better step it up if she wants to keep her fans as avid as she has the ability to!

see, but that's the point i was trying to make earlier -- yes, she has the ability to do so but this tour isn't about her avid fans -- if it was, she'd make multiple changes so it's not the same show we've been seeing and hearing for the past few years. this is about getting paid and fulfilling a contract from what i can tell. it's about going on the road and people hearing she's touring -- again -- and saying, "wow...stevie nicks...i used to love her...let's go!" and i'm not saying there's something wrong with that -- it just is what it is.

[carrie721]

k. I'm Canadian, I don't get it :confused: :wavey:

sorry, just making fun of how you canucks say the "ow" sound ... like "aboot" :laugh:

[Livia]

Really? This is news to me... I thought this was still up in the air or that Taku had jumped ship to be with Janet Jackson. :shrug:

I think Josh was only referring to the FL shows, and not the Eye Sack tour. :shrug: In any case, they had NO time at all to rehearse, since they played w/ LB the nite before in St. Louis.

[jannieC]

I can go to a NY show- I'm originally from NY and still have family there. I hate to hear the show sucked; I'm one of the old diehards that doesn't really give a **** if she mixes it up or not. However, I do like for her to be *into* whatever she is singing. Hopefully the next show will be better.

[MacMan]

sorry, just making fun of how you canucks say the "ow" sound ... like "aboot" :laugh:

By the way, not all Canadians pronounce it like that... Just the eastern Canadians...And I'm not sure if it's any further east then Ontario :)

[carrie721]

:laugh: i know. i'm just being an asshole. :lol:

[gldstwmn]

Show's out. Alex is pissed. The crowd was soooo bad. Security didn't let anyone up for the Edge walk. She went to go shake hands and there wasn't anyone there, so she just bowed and then went back and sang the rest of the song. Alex almost got into a fist fight with some random guy. Hopefully by the time he gets home, he will be in a better mood and give everyone a few more details.

~Kim

Yikes! :eek:

Yep, beautiful and sounds great. :nod:

She keeps fiddling with her sound thing, though. That because of the sound problems?

^thanks j. she really does look amazing.

Well, I'm happy to see she's a fan of recycling.

I know she was having pack problems that night, but she plays with her pack quite a lot. To me, it's distracting. I've never been to a Stevie show where she doesn't fiddle with it in every song. I've never seen another artist do it so much.

she does play with it a lot. I can understand why though...she probably needs to hear herself more during certain songs. if the audience is going wild and starts to drown out her earpiece, she probably turns it up or if it's a slow song where the volume of the earpiece is too loud, she probably turns it down.

[gldstwmn]

Well, if she plays Radio City Music Hall, I'm so there.....I've never been inside of it....just out front of it.

It's really cool. Hey! Maybe that's what Stevie's show needs? The Rockettes!

[gldstwmn]

There's been talk of a "teleprompter" breakdown at her show..so, you mean to tell me that if the words to Stand Back aren't scrolling past her she won't be able to remember them?

I give you Stand Back from Woodstock:

It seems to be a nervous habit. I was at last nites concert.....Stevie was awesome and beautiful........and showed that she is only human and was really pissed that her earphones weren't working......but she was a pro and did great. She was very talkative and "cursed"..... as well as joked with her drummer with the wild hair....paxton.....she was teasing him about being from "Jersey" saying it in a really cute jersey accent. The fans were into it......as you can see from Landslide video.....I love Stevie regardless of what she sings.......most of the crowd were not true fans like on the Ledge....that is what they want to hear.

I'm glad you had a good time!

But I refuse to believe that these "casual" fans come wanting to hear Enchanted, Outside the Rain, Fall From Grace, Rock and Roll. I agree completely with Strand that these are the songs that Stevie can switch for new stuff. Of course she's gonna do the hits, but I don't think she's satisfying anyone except herself and her comfort zone by continuing to play Enchanted, etc.

[enchanted]

That set list is dreadfully boring. She can do so much better.:distress: I wonder if someone had a little to much fun at the Super Bowl post parties and was over-tired to boot.:o

This and the Tampa concert are just extra shows not really part of tour....probably just to fufill some contract obligation.....give mama a break.....she is still singing great ....I enjoy anything she does.

[Rickypt]

It's funny how every setlist discussion kind of turns into the same thing. Some find it boring and those who don't say things like "I'm just happy she's still performing". But no one really says they love the setlist.

Does anyone LOVE the setlist?

I don't mean you're fine with it. I don't mean you don't care if Stevie sings the phonebook. I mean you LOVE the setlist.

I would have been happy with this set list if she didn't tell Jim Ladd (and essentially us) that she was going to change her whole vegas show around. If that set (in Vegas) was just suppose to be normal it would have been awesome. She amped us up for diaster. Although....the all white outfit..skirt and shawl is THE BEST outfit she has worn in years...**** the pants and the kennel.

I'm glad im not alone with the disappointing set list. I just DON'T get it. Why add crappy ass covers when she had a 30 year span of songs. If her set with Chris is the same as DH I will be so unhappy because I already saw that show. WE have a voice here. I think we should email Taku as a group. We are the fans that are spending **** loads of cash for a show we've seen 5 times. I don't know....im just very upset right now.

[foxyluva]

Maybe we should start a petition of some kind :shrug:

[AliceLover]

I think emailing Taku or another band member could give us some answers. But even if she added like just BLUE DENIM or TALK TO ME, just one song. She hasn't done it and its riduclous.

[BombaySapphire3]

I think this is actually starting to become comedic..If I thought La Nicks had any sense of irony in her humor I would strongly suspect that this set list is some kind of joke.

while I am one of the phonebook phenoms, I don't love the setlist. I'm not up in arms over it, but sure, I'd like to see some changes.

Taku has stated numerous times he can't be of any assistance when it comes to Stevie's set list. He shows up to rehearsals, and plays the songs they have on the sheet with them.
Plus, Taku won't be playing with Stevie this summer, so it won't help regardless.

could you imagine Taku walking up to Stevie with a list of suggested set list changes? :lol:

[ShangriLaTroubl]

We all knew this set would be the same set, as there was no time for the band to rehearse since Brett and Taku flew in the night before the Superbowl straight from a Lindsey show in St. Louis. However, the WORST part about this set list was that she cut HAEWAFY and Circle Dance, if she's gonna keep it the same, do that--atleast don't cut anything.

You are so right.

[Rickypt]

Okay, so no one loves this setlist. If I were Stevie, that is information I'd like to know.

[Johnny Stew]

Ok, Ok... I think I might finally be coming over to the dark-side. Maybe it's taken me this long because I haven't actually spent money to see Stevie in concert. I don't know.
But, yeah, I'm starting to feel everyone's disappointment with the setlists and I'm starting to finally understand where you're all coming from.

Truth be told, if I had a chance to see her, I'd honestly want to hear all the songs she's currently playing (they are still among my favorite songs -- "overplayed" or not). But if I paid (and travelled) to see her frequently, I guess I'd probably be really disappointed too.

Having said that, it doesn't surprise me that she didn't change her setlist for the Florida shows. And I don't mean that in a cynical way. Just given that some of her band is currently touring with Lindsey, I doubt they had time to rehearse anything different.
Hopefully there will be a few "new" songs for the Summer tour with Chris Isaak though.

[skcin]

^ Come out...into the darkness. Welcome, Stew! :angel:

I'm not really surprised she didn't change the set for the FL show. I am surprised ( and disappointed) that she dropped a couple tunes.

Part of her band didn't show up until the day of the actual show and were on the road with Lindsey before. How was she supposed to come up with something new? This wasn't an actual tour, these were just some scattered dates. She has a month and a half before Vegas. Though I don't think she will change much of the setlist for Vegas, surely she'll make some changes for the summer tour. Even she has to realize you can't tour for two years with the same setlist.

I hope. :eek:

[Johnny Stew]

Okay, so no one loves this setlist.Well, we should probably qualify that by saying that the diehards don't love the setlist.
Obviously the majority of the audience does. Which is why she still plays to several thousand people per show.

I'd venture to guess that we only make up about 25-35% of her concert-goers.

I thought you were reducing - BAD BAD BOY {{{spank}}}I have a bad attitude when it comes to diet and exercise. I don't want anything bad enough to deny myself the foods I love and to walk around with my muscles sore and aching constantly.

I'm around 180-185lbs right now. More than I should weigh, but at least I'm maintaining. :shrug:

You were, however, exercising there for awhile and not eting as much fast food. Am I gonna have to haul my recently reduced self down there and give you a big sweaty work out that you will ache after?

[Johnny Stew]

You were, however, exercising there for awhile and not eting as much fast food.I've really never eaten a lot of fast food, but I do like a Big Mac & fries from time to time.
I just refuse to deny myself my love of greasy pepperoni pizza. Or pasta. Or bread. Or mashed potatoes and gravy. And so on.
If I can't eat those things, I'd rather not eat. And I'm not interested in spending an hour, or more, every day "working it off" with exercise.

See, told you I'm stubborn about this kind of stuff. :laugh:

I did mean no one here loves the setlist and should have been more clear.

I wonder if the non-diehards love the setlist. They get most of the hits, so maybe. I would love to interview them and get their thoughts on songs like Enchanted, OTR, Fall From Grace, Rock And Roll and whether they would want to hear them over and over.

[Rickypt]

Hm, see that's what I was thinking also. I can't believe you guys actually expected something new.

I'd think any band worth anything would be able to come up with something new with just a little bit of time. I find it so hard to believe that this band Stevie has had for years only knows 14 songs or whatever. As someone said on sevenwonders (full credit given), this isn't first grade music class.

If Stevie wanted to do something different, they could do something different.

...and no, I never expected a change in setlist but I am pretty surprised two songs from Vegas were dropped. This is an extremely short setlist.

Chunky Stew! Why haven't you gone to a show lately? You seem to really lover her more than a lot of people here. What gives? If you wanted to come to Dallas, I'd buy you guys a ticket for the show, not the travel. You know I'm not that generous.

There are a lot of various reasons why I haven't seen Stevie since '90... but the two main ones are my panic disorder and the cost of tickets.

I'm always working on managing the panic disorder though (meds-free)... I have an occasional setback, but I've also made great strides... so maybe within the next few years, I'll get to see Stevie.
Wonder if she'll do "Landslide." ;)

They do that thing at every show. Stevie never knows her cue to start singing, Waddy is counting for her "one two one two three four". They do it on all the DVD's I have, they do it at the middle too. I can understand why the beginning is hard to start off but that part after the wail is fairly easy.

I'm not picking on ya, Brian- just relishing it! :p :angel:

I might find myself agreeing that Stevie could do with shaking up her setlist a little, but I still hold the seemingly unpopular opinion that people grouse about it waaaaaaay too fugging much.
So I guess I'm not totally over to the dark-side. :laugh:

Oh, grandma- you are sooooooooooooooo predictable.

Meh. I don't care. You're sweet as sugar, and that's enough for me. :nod:

And, hey... predictability isn't necessarily a bad thing. ;)

[Kelly]

really? hmmm. I guess I just never noticed it before.

I think it really started during the GD tour. I never noticed it in tours prior to that. Stevie has Waddy count her down at the beginning AND after the wail, which sort of worried me. I know the timing is a bit tricky but how long has she been singing Edge with Sharona? Maybe after Jana screwed it up in Vegas it rattled Stevie....:shrug:

well with all that shrieking coming from the left side of the stage I can't say I blame her :laugh:

*snort*

Ugh...thinking about this reminded me of FFG. She pretty much ruined the song, IMHO. Shrieking and overpowering Stevie is not a good thing. :lol:

Here is the much talked about f-bomb at the Hard Rock show
(at the end of Rhiannon)

Bless her heart, WHAT IN THE HELL makes her think those drones in the end part are palatable? It'd really almost rather her sing the slow part and end it there. Of course, if she sang the slow part like she did on the BD video, I would die on the spot and that is one of her better live vocals these ears have ever hear - "I'll never forget you either!" Le Sigh

I can't make out most of what she's saying. She's going on about something, but I can't tell what. Something about a jet plane landing in her ears. :confused:

[goldustsongbird]

Something about a jet plane landing in her ears. :confused:

:laugh: :laugh: She'll go fast like a jet plane...

[carrie721]

i can only make out that she's bitching about her ear monitor, and says the bit about the jet plane, and then "high ****in' tech ..."

that probably doesn't help at all, though. :laugh:

[Kelly]

:lol:

Man she is a trip. The 'jet plane landing in her head' part was pretty funny though. Gotta love Brett and Carlos encouraging her away from the mic.... :lol: I do not think she could look more miserable if she tried.

[MacMan]

In the dark before she starts singing, you can see her motioning "DOWN" firmly with both her arms to someone to the left of her off stage... Obviously it was way too loud - then during the song it looks like she pulls out the earpieces a little so they are so embedded in her ear... Sounds like she says, "but I'm cool" just before the high tech remark...

[JazmenFlowers]

In the dark...
holy effin smokes.

that animation in your sig is H.O.T.

I love crimped-out Stevie.

[sparky]

She is very, very funny. And that's a high quality video. Whoever got that did a great job.

She absolutely needs to permanently retire this song. The end vamp is just embarrassing now.

[strandinthewind]

It is the same note over and over again and she is so low on it. Every now and then, she gets physically more animated, but rarely if ever does she show any vocal strength - though there were glimpses on the SYW tour.

[Rickypt]

I can't sit through 11 minutes of this video to get to the end.

[carrie721]

me neither. i skipped the first 10 minutes.

Thanks... She actually looks pretty good in this vid... But you have to slow it down to catch the good parts... they clip by so fast.

[jannieC]

I was actually surprised and impressed by this performance. Maybe I'm just overly tired and easy to please? ;)

[sparky]

me neither. i skipped the first 10 minutes.


I had the sound off till the end.

[sparky]

:laugh:

wanna go out?:laugh:

You whore, Bucky. She's a married woman.

:woohoo:

[JazmenFlowers]

hilarious. she still pulled through even with messed up inner ear thingies.

she looks so good too.

and as for the Rhiannon of today, I like it. it's not the Rhiannon of the 70's or even the 80's, but I like it.

God love ya, Jazzy. You are faithful to a fault.

I want you to be my fan.:wavey:

Sparky! Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

With jannie occupied by bucky, we have a clear shot at the hubby!

Omg you guys are KILLING me! Haha- my husband would love it! :)

[JazmenFlowers]

I know, I know. what can I say? I love this bitch to da deaf.
I want you to be my fan.:wavey:
maybe I already am.

[sparky]

Sparky don't play married men. I got those ya-yas out.
Which doesn't mean they still aren't sniffin'.
I just don't sniff back no more.

Which really does deserve a song parody called "Don't Sniff Around Here No More."

[jannieC]

which part does he love the best??lol

Sadly, probably just that anyone is even talking about having a clear shot at him. :)

[Johnny Stew]

She only likes versions I've played her from '97 onward ('Live In Boston' is her favorite overall).

[sparky]

Such a thought swells my grinchy little heart.

I don't especially care for the '70s live versions. They are screechy. I like The Dance version and the Live in Boston version, but didn't care much for this Hard Rock performance that was posted here...it's like she's just yelling out the words, not really singing. :shrug:

[sparky]

I suspect that people who disdain 70's Rhiannon performances don't like garlic.

Based on the mixed opinions, it's probably something that I would think was "ok"... not the greatest, but certainly not horrible.

For me, there are two "ultimate" versions of "Rhiannon"... on completely different ends of the spectrum... the 'Rosebud' performance and the 'Live In Boston' one.

[Johnny Stew]

Uhh...what does that have to do with anything?Maybe he should've gone for the more traditional, "people who don't like '70s 'Rhiannon' performances are communists." ;)

[carrie721]

i think it's either a dig at vampires or italians. could go either way. :laugh:

Well, in that case...no, I actually do like garlic. :D

I don't consider the "latter day" performances of Rhiannon bland (except those since 2004...I think her voice is going); I just have a thing for women with deep voices (Cassandra Wilson, latter day Joni Mitchell, etc.).

[JazmenFlowers]

Such a thought swells my grinchy little heart.
at least the thought makes something swell. ;)
