Stevie's Longest Held Note?

[wolfontherun]

I think it is a toss up between the last "crazy" on the extended Sara from the reissued Tusk and the note in Whenever I call You Friend toward the end.

How about that version of Sara which was on the FM Live album? I seem to recall a really long note too towards the end while Lindsey was playing...

The SNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW

in the live version of Landslide right after Hurricans Katrina and Rita.

Here it is - at 4:48

I was sitting in the waiting room of the operating room at this hospital in Louisiana as my mother was having major surgery and the Rita helicopters returning from the search and rescues for Rita were flying above us, with some landing on the roof. Then, this appears on the tv. I swear that was more than coincidence because the other people in the waiting room just sort of stopped and watched it :nod:

Here's another really long "snowwwwwwwwww..."

The one from the today show is seven seconds, this one is eight...

I was at the Anaheim show, and I remember her holding the "snow" like that and how beautiful she sounded. I've noticed that Stevie live in person doesn't quite sound like Stevie live on video or CD (whether fan shot or professional), but that one comes pretty close! Thank you!

I love how the audience is put into a trance. So great!

Yeah it's definitely got to be "At Lasstttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt tttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt"

[DavidMn]

Well the longest one I've ever heard is on the Sara bootleg from St Louis on the Tusk tour where she goes ALL I EVER WANTED WAS TO KNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. I counted that puppy at at least 13 seconds.
