WOW. WOW. WOW. Stevie was WOW. I had such a great time. I spent fifty dollars on a dozen white roses which i had done up special for Stevie...they sprayed glitter stuff on them and they looked amazing. I kept getting compliments on them all night long. I got to the concert and as soon as Stevie went on I ran to the front of the stage. The first time I was up there I was standing in front of Sharon, Jana, and Lori. Jana waved hi and smiled at me after I took a picture of them. That was pretty cool. :] My shoes were soaked, though, I was standing in ankle deep water. Then one of the security guards there told me to go back to my seat. I went back to my seat for like five minutes, grabbed the roses and ran back down and begged one of the other security guards to let me stay up there. I guess they felt bad for me so they let me go up...this time I was like right between Stevie and Waddy, yay! Waddy sounded great. I gave him a thumbs up and he smiled at me. The night just flew by...it was crazy, before I knew it she was doin the Edge Walk. I handed her the flowers and she said "thank you." and I told her I loved her, lol, and she said "I love you too." and she grabbed both my hands and for like two seconds we just stood there looking directly into each others eyes. It was intense! I didn't really feel the intensity of it until thirty minutes later when I was driving home. WOW. LOL.

The flowers I bought stevie

Interesting choice of hat considering the colors she's wearing...haha. I LOVE that coat though! Stevie wears the cutest clothes!!

Thanks for the review and the pics! :)

[danax6]

Are my eyes deceiving me or does that hat have a leopard print? :eek:

[equeen102289]

Are my eyes deceiving me or does that hat have a leopard print? :eek:

Yes...it is. I am not fond of leopard print at all! lol. Especially with black. What do you think?

[UnwindedDreams]

Are my eyes deceiving me or does that hat have a leopard print? :eek:
Nope it did:D

[emfan2377]

Yes, it was a leopard print. She looked so cute in it. I was a little disappointed that she didn't dance all too much, but I'm thinking her 52 layers weighed her down.

[UnwindedDreams]

She tried her best to give us a great show...I thought she wasn't going to come out, she had such a late start...

[equeen102289]

Probably praying for it to miraculously warm up :laugh:

[UnwindedDreams]

Looking for what to wear I think:nod: Every time she plays Jones Beach she's bundled up but last night...omg

[emfan2377]

I know, it was after 9 I think by the time she came on. Chris Issak felt like he was on forever.

The show was awesome. I try to see her every year at Jones, and imo, this is the best she's been in years. (Granted my first solo Stevie show was TISL era, and she really struggled that night) I was glad the set list changed somewhat from the last few years.

I took my cousin and her friend for their first ever concert. Afterwards, they rambled on and on how great she looked and how excited they were to see her.

[danax6]

Yes...it is. I am not fond of leopard print at all! lol. Especially with black. What do you think?Not a fan either, and it doesn't go with black and white at all. But it's still awesome, even though it's ugly. :laugh:

[newyawka]

Chris Issak felt like he was on forever.

omg, i know! at around 8:30 i was just like f--k this, and i went for some merchandise and pretzels and by the time i was back he was gone and they were setting up for stevie.

[UnwindedDreams]

omg, i know! at around 8:30 i was just like f--k this, and i went for some merchandise and pretzels and by the time i was back he was gone and they were setting up for stevie.The pretzels sucked. They gave me raw ones and did you have the fried dough. That tasted like a big grease ball...yuck! The fries were good:laugh:

I stuck it out to the bitter end with him to the point where I was like, "I'm gonna kill myself." His little ad-libbing during "Baby Did a Bad Thing" was entirely too cheesy.

[emfan2377]

My husband waited 25 minutes to get me a hot chocolate. He said the machine was on the fritz, and the coffee wait was just as long.

Nice pics! Like I was saying... the combination of that jacket, the hat (with the netting) and the gloves reminded me of the RAL cover:

Love this picture! Looks like vintage witchy-woman Stevie. I would have killed to have been at this concert what with all the outfits. That alone would shut me up about the set list.

[newyawka]

yea, the pretzels were not good. some woman alked past me and she had some fries, they did smeell good...i was so close to asking her for some haha

[Kelly]

Oh that leopard hat is.......:eek:


Are my eyes deceiving me or does she have on those high black boots she wore in that Oz magazine spread? She has them on in brown on the bed picture. Those boots look hot, whatever they are.

That hat?

:distress:


:blob2: for her wearing something new though.



6,000 seats sold out of 15,000...not so good for Jones Beach.

[UnwindedDreams]

6,000 seats sold out of 15,000...not so good for Jones Beach. That was her guess but it looked like there was 8-9,000 there.

[HejiraNYC]

That was her guess but it looked like there was 8-9,000 there.

yeah, it was definitely more than 6K. I second that guesstimate. :nod: I would also imagine a fair number of people who left due to the cold and the flooding.

[UnwindedDreams]

yeah, it was definitely more than 6K. I second that guesstimate. :nod: I would also imagine a fair number of people who left due to the cold and the flooding. People were leaving after Chris Isaak...it was TOO cold

When she came on...there were A LOT of people outside in the concourse...A LOT...

[HejiraNYC]

I would imagine that they were all the disgruntled people who were pi$$ed off at not being allowed to take their seats in the front sections. During Eye Sack's set I actually complained to the manager of the place. He asked me what he could do for me. I bluffed and asked about a refund. Wasn't going to happen. Then I asked for a backstage pass. Uh uh. All he could do was offer me a ticket for another show at Jones Beach or a ticket for something at the North Fork Theatre in Westbury. Anyway, since I knew it wasn't worth pursuing any further, I just went back and nonchalantly snuck up to my seat. Actually ended up sitting on the stage during Eye Sack's last number when he invited people in the front to dry off. That was really, really surreal.

[UnwindedDreams]

You should have gotten a ticket for the Def Leppard concert:nod: So wait...some people couldn't sit in their front seats for the whole show? sorry to be stupid...

[emfan2377]

When the house lights went down, the man sitting next to me turned to his wife and said, "Let's make this the Greatest Hits show. We're out after 3 songs." And they were out after 3 songs.

[HejiraNYC]

You should have gotten a ticket for the Def Leppard concert:nod: So wait...some people couldn't sit in their front seats for the whole show? sorry to be stupid...

I'm not sure, to be honest... all I know is that no additional people were being allowed up front for Eye Sack's set; only those who got there before high tide were allowed to stay. And from what I can tell, people weren't being allowed through until the first part of Stevie's set. It was a very, very chaotic situation...

[wheart]

That hat is rockin'! I love it. Even though the set list is the same, I gotta say her wardrobe has definitely improved on this tour!! Thanks for the pics:D :D

You shut your mouth RIGHT NOW! It's comments like this that make her afraid to wear anything other than black, you know! :(

and babies.

that hat is putrid, but like everyone else is saying, I'm stoked she is at least having a little fun with her clothes. good for her.

[Rickypt]

I love the hat and I love even more the reviews of what seems to be a really amazing show. This is the first time I've felt kind of inspired by Stevie this tour. What I would have given to have been a part of this.

[carrie721]

and babies.

right! babies too.

i don't mind the hat. 'course, i love whole lotta trouble too. :D

[kathy1]

what time did the show start? some places like stevie nicks info says 7:30 but the ticket and ticketmaster says it is 8pm. kathy

[kathy1]

:wavey: also i love the pictures.

[newyawka]

Those pics kick ASS!

lol, thanks :]

[danax6]

You shut your mouth RIGHT NOW! It's comments like this that make her afraid to wear anything other than black, you know! :(Hi. Hello. Did you not hear me say I think it's awesome?

I mean, the hat is fugly, even more so now that I know about the netting ( :eek: ), but it's so awesomely fugly it's become just awesome. Just like a horror movie that is so bad it becomes really good, at least a really good comedy. And the hat was already a long way on its way to being awesome because it was new. So, despite the fugliness, I say hurray!

Gawd, I'm starting to sound like Amber. :laugh:

Now let me focus on the boots a little more. I think those are new also. ****, Stevie. Overload.

[ELIUD]

This is off-topic but I don't want to start a new thread. Also I'm not sure if this has been posted, but getty images has a whole bunch of Stevie pics from her opening night of this tour. The pictures are nice but all very similar to each other.

Here are a couple examples...

[Musicman408]

I'm so glad to hear that Stevie was "WOW WOW WOW!!!!" This makes me very happy. She looks amazing as well too. :nod:

[emfan2377]

what time did the show start? some places like stevie nicks info says 7:30 but the ticket and ticketmaster says it is 8pm. kathy

I got there about 7:45 and it seemed like Chris was well into his set. He played until 8:30 or so. Stevie didn't take the stage until after 9.

[missdiatribe]

This was one of the most amusing concerts I've ever attended. It would've been even better if they replaced the seats with rowboats and rafts.http://www.box.net/shared/r9x4n5tffi

You can view a few photos taken by my partner in crime last night.

[Glittermoondust]

I could be wrong but aren't those the glitter pants she has on under the Edge dress....... they don't look like boots to me :shrug:

[Kelly]

I want to know about the boots she has on at the beginning, with that atrocious doily coat. Those are HOT and look alot like the Oz magazine ones, but in black. They look like they are knee high...which are just amazing on Stevie.

That leopard hat has netting? :shocked:


No. Just no. :o

[gldstwmn]

I love the hat. Thanks for the photos. :)

I thought those looked like some leg warmers or pants also... but it is hard to tell......

[Kelly]

Yea, in some of the photos they do look like either tight pants or leg warmers but in one or two, they look shiny, like leather. She probably had pants on under all her dresses...darn it. I love those boots. :laugh:

The velvet hat is really cute, I just wish it looked more like a beret...but I guess it was for warmth, not fashion. :lol:

OMG I would love it if she wore a beret :woohoo: Even though it looked cold and miserable this would have been one very cool show to be at :thumbsup:

[joe]

what is up with stevie and jones beach? i could've gone last night but opted out cause it was just too freaking cold. the weather the past few days in the NE here has been more like late september. not very outdoor concert feel at all.

so, the last time i saw her there was with FM on the SYW tour in early June 2004 (the 6th I recall...actually, had to look it up!). It was freezing that night as well. Did she play there in 2005? What was the weather like that night? Remember back in 1986 on the bootleg video she says that the performance was the "rain date."

what's up with jones beach? does it not like stevie!?

after seeing that pic of all the water on the floor, i'm glad i didn't go. i love stevie but....

i also had a blast seeing her at red rocks on memorial day, so all is not lost. i still have scranton, pa (yawn) to possibly attend.

Yep, one of the Two Voices tour dates was at JB- almost two years to the date, and it was freakin' freezing that day too. I'll never forget it because it was a sauna in the city so I left for JB wearing just a tank top and shorts. It was easily 30 degrees cooler at JB! :eek: I don't think I have ever been so cold in my life...

The water last night was actually neat, and believe it or not, it was actually warmer than the air temperature. If it wasn't for the potential electrical hazard, I would have been splashing up a storm. :thumbsup:

[wheart]

haha were like the only two people who actually like that hat!

I think we're gaining in strength. They're about 4 of us hat fans out there now.

[jkmaletic]

FIVE - I love the hat too!! :woohoo:

[SuzeQuze]

Not a fan either, and it doesn't go with black and white at all. But it's still awesome, even though it's ugly. :laugh:

It's a neutral though so it does go. Plus it has black in it. I don't get why you guys don't think it matches. It's just one of those accessories that pops.

[SuzeQuze]

FIVE - I love the hat too!! :woohoo:

Six then! High five!

Stevie is wearing glittery pants that are gathered below the knee like her leg warmers. At the Dallas show, and I believe all shows since, she's been coming out wearing these with her black fittied jacket and mini dress for the first few songs. It looks like because of the cold, she kept them on under all her outfits and skirts which definitely makes them look more like boots or leg warmers.

Oh I KNOW! It was so cold. I remember suffering in my apartment in the city because my air conditioner hadn't arrived and bringing a little shawl to Jones Beach. Luckily my date (and a kind relative of Waddy's) gave me his leather coat which wrapped around me twice thankfully while he shivered next to me. The idea is to book a show at Jones Beach in JULY or AUGUST, as opposed to the early June and late September dates that Stevie books.

[jannieC]

Six then! High five!

Seven!!! :wavey: :woohoo:

[danax6]

It's a neutral though so it does go. Plus it has black in it. I don't get why you guys don't think it matches. It's just one of those accessories that pops.It looks completely mismatched to me. Brown and black go together to some degree, but throw in the white and the only thing that really goes with it is grey or a very bright color like red. Not brown. And don't even get me started on the leopard print with that white flowy dress. To me it comes across as a last minute throw together because they realized the wind wasn't going to settle down.

But still awesome. :laugh:

[bikerchic]

I love the hat too! Since when has Stevie's hats always matched her outfits? I'm just thrilled that she's actually wearing a fricken hat! (something other then the feather hat). Bring on the hats Stevie!!!! We don't care if they fricken match!
