Thank you sue! Mick is supposed to be there perhaps they did The Chain like the MusiCares concert. Stevie said she'd like to do more Fleetwood Mac songs in her solo show.
He did join Stevie for Stop dragging’ and Landslide.
And very cute he looked too, they sang pretty well together..

Great to have Stevie in the UK. Only 15 songs though! I would be disappointed if I went to a gig and only saw that many.

That's why she tells stories. 15 is all the poor thing can muster through...

It’s amazing that she sold so many tickets. Congratulations to her. But that has to be the worst setlist she’s played in recent times. My goodness. How hard is it to throw in something from one of your other albums like OSOTM or 24 Karat Gold? Or even one of your other FM songs like Silver Springs, I Don’t Want To Know, or Crystal.

Agree 15 songs is a tad poor, especially as the following night, same venue.
Kylie Minogue performed 23 songs…
Admittedly there is a big age gap but even so !!
(Personally I wouldn’t pay to see either)

Your post makes me wonder just how Stevie chooses her setlist. I mean, she’ll obviously sing Stand Back, Edge, and Dreams, and she always picks one deep cut (I Sing For the Things this tour, even though it’s already been dropped), but does Waddy have input? I just read that Stevie rehearsed Rooms on Fire for her 24 Karat tour, but didn’t include it- why? Is it a difficult song to perform? I can see why she wouldn’t perform Sorcerer, with the high notes, or Talk to Me, with the vocal intensity, but Room has neither of those.
I think she won’t perform any of the songs you suggested, UnwindedDreams- Silver Springs is so closely identified with Lindsey, she resents I Don’t Want to Know (which is BS and should have been performed on the last FM tour instead of I Got You) and Crystal is also too identified with Lindsey; however, any of these songs would have been a real treat if Harry Styles had duetted on them the other night! Can you imagine?!

Can you imagine?!Hi bwboy, did you see Stevie on any of her tours from 2001-2011? She sang Sorcerer without those beautiful falsetto notes but it still rocked. In 07 I think she used to go really high at the end with a "YEAAAAH" note. And she crush Talk To Me on the Street Angel Tour. She can still do it. I thought it noteworthy that when Stevie was called to the stage to accept her induction into the RRHOF - it was Talk To Me that was played over the arena's PA.
We know Stevie is the boss in her solo touring. I do think you're right that Wsddy has input. Waddy did want to perform Crying In The Night for years according to Stevie so she did it for her 2016 Tour. I loved her early 2023 setlist when I saw her in Seattle. Sara, I Sing For The Things, and Fall From Grace - though I've seen FFG and Sara many times live, hearing Sara in her solo set was incredible. But all three of those are already gone from the setlist.
I'd disagree with you that the 2022 setlist had a deep cut. That 2022 tour mirrored the 2016 Tour setlist. The new additions were three covers by Led Zep, Buffalo Springfield, and Tom Petty.
I think the argument for Stevie not playing the three FM songs I mentioned because they involve Lindsey is rubbish (and not what you think is rubbish). I'm just saying Stevie wrote the songs, sang on the songs (1998 Crystal featuring lead vocal), and Stevie claims her independence so she doesn't need to depend on Lindsey to be able to perform these songs - they're not his. And my position on Stevie's setlist choices for the 2018 Tour have been clear: they were her worst on any FM tour. It was a total stifling of Stevie's great contributions to FM. The first FM Tour since The Dance not to resurrect a Stevie FM song that hadn't been played in two decades or more/ or never played at all.
I think she's complacent and just figures the audience will eat up whatever she sings because they're awestruck being in the same venue with her.
It's a total departure from her 2011 comments where she said she'll never do the same setlist again and again. And for myself whose spent thousands and thousands on her, it's depressing that she's gone back to the casino setlist days.

I’ve seen Stevie 3 times- Street Angel, Enchanted, and Trouble in Shangri-La, and I would say I was fortunate in the sense that for those 3 tours, her set lists were incredibly varied. I totally get what you’re saying about being disappointed with her last few tours, though. I can’t imagine paying those ticket prices today for 15 songs, that’s horrible, and there’s no excuse for it. When she drops a song, she should replace it.
I can’t imagine ever seeing her again solo, but I would see FM again if they got together again. I’m very thankful I got to see Christine on the last FM tour, performing with a confidence I’d never seen from her before. I suspect if people had known that was going to be her last tour, they might have gone to see her, and I don’t want to have any regrets and pass up an opportunity to see Lindsey, Mick, Stevie, and John together one last time. Not saying it will happen, but if it did I’d go.

Those three tours were awesome! TISL had five or six new songs too - though you're not into new songs at a concert:p:laugh: In Your Dreams was an incredible tour (but she did begin shortening Edge and Annabel Lee that tour).
For my own dollar, it's not the length of her show that bothers me but the songs she performs. I think the 2022 setlist was her most boring setlist since 2008. 2023 I enjoyed and was "surprised" by, even with the two covers. I think Stevie's doing 13-15 songs rather than 20 because she's almost 80 and it's more taxing for her to perform. She's not maturing as well as Springsteen or Jagger.

I do like new songs being performed in concert, honest! But only if the new album is good LOL! Trouble was Stevie’s last good album, IMO, and by sheer coincidence, she sang all my favorites songs from the album- Planets of the Universe, Bombay Sapphires, Too Far From Texas, Sorcerer, and Fall From Grace.
When I saw FM for their Say You Will tour on opening night, I was stunned they performed so many new songs, but since I wasn’t a fan of that album, it was a little disappointing. Especially since they didn’t sing Thrown Down, my personal favorite. When I saw FM in 1990, I was disappointed they didn’t sing more songs from the album- they performed In the Back of My Mind, Love is Dangerous, and Stand on the Rock, but I thought they would have sang Save Me, Skies the Limit, When It Comes to Love, and Freedom as well. But they didn’t.
If Stevie isn’t going to record anymore, but still keep touring, I agree with you that she needs to drop the cover songs and go back to deep cuts and hits she hasn’t performed in decades, such as Talk to Me, Rooms on Fire, and I Can’t Wait. Those three songs alone would improve her setlist dramatically. And even as you pointed out, she’s older, but she’s also taking more time off between concerts than most folks, which should help her keep her energy level up.

I think a lot of younger fans were sad Silver Springs wasn't played - it has gained lots of popularity on TikTok.

Can I through out Rock and Roll and put in Talk To Me, David? If yes, this setlist is incredible! It'll never happen - especially Edge as first encore and not the closer of the main set:laugh: I love Blue Denim as the opening song!
In 2014, she said she was going to play All the Beautiful Words when she toured for 24 Karat Gold. Never made it to the setlist - 3 songs from that album on that tour. Another example of her lies in recent times.

They didn't play Save Me at your show?! Wow - and that was the most notable single from BTM. 2018 would have been a great time for FM to play the songs you mentioned from BTM, especially since Mick, John, Christine, and Stevie were all on it! I guess because the album was not a success in the US?
Stevie takes at least two whole days off in between shows these days. Her performances are autopilot.

Great song list suggestions! Here’s my fantasy list- there would be two, actually; ideally, Stevie would perform two different set lists alternating nights. That would keep her on her toes and provide a variety to her fans.
Each night would have Dreams, Landslide, Stand Back, and Edge of Seventeen. The rest would include:
Rhiannon one night; Gold Dust Woman the next
Gypsy one night; Seven Wonders the next
Storms one night; Sara the next
Stop Dragging My Heart; Whenever I Call You Friend
Rooms on Fire; If Anyone Falls
Talk to Me; Blue Denim
Moonlight; Secret Love
Crying in the Night; Long Distance Winner
Sorcerer; Ooh My Love
All the Beautiful Worlds; Battle of the Dragon
Destiny; Rose Garden
I think the songs I picked have a similar vibe, Rhiannon and GDW are performance songs, Stop Dragging and Whenever are duets, Rooms and Anyone Falls are pop songs, Talk to Me and Blue Denim are rockers, and Destiny and Rose Garden are country-ish. I know this would never happen, but what a way to keep the tour fresh.

Macfan4life explained that Save Me was played initially on the BTM tour, but near the end, they dropped it for Say You Love Me. Ugh- I was so disappointed! Save Me was, and remains, one of my favorite FM songs, and I would have loved to have seen Christine sing it. You’re right, it would have been awesome if the 2018 tour had included Save Me and As Long As You Follow in place of All Over Again.

Stevie's World Tour continues. She played in Amsterdam last night. Same short setlist that includes two covers.
Stand Back has a new intro which is a riff off between the synthesizer and Carlos. There's a sort of drum solo too. I guess this gives Stevie time backstage to cape up and hydrate.
Stevie does one spin and dances in place after when she usually win spin continuously during Carlos' disco guitar. Enjoy:

I really prefer it, when she used to sing "He Said Take It, All"! Because it lifted her voice into melody mode. It sounds kind of monotone, without the "Take It All! Just my opinion, of course!;)

I like that Take It All too. The instrumentation for Stand Back is good in this video. I do miss Scott Crago on the drums!
I'm excited to see what the setlist will look like come end of September since she'll have over two months off from her last show.

We know Stevie's "The Boss" in her solo career but it seems Waddy and Stevie decide what the setlist will be every night/every tour. He's the musical director and she's said he's told her what songs she can't drop.

That's why if he goes back for this "how many warm bodies are left" reunion tour, I'll lose what respect I have left for him. He's already suffered public humiliation from her, and now wants to go back for more. He may as well put on a collar, and get a leash with which .Stevie can parade him around.

Now...
But up until the last Rumours5 tour he was the musical director for the band and could tell them what to do, and yeah she hated it.... so obvious in the DR doc. Esp the scene when they are rehearsing and she wants to just go thru the full set late into the night and he's like, nope I have to be out of here by 9... she was NOT happy that he would not bend...
And YET...she wants everyone she replaces him with to do everything just the way he would do it... Which speaks to the fact that she can't find fault with him musically or technically... she just hated that he was the boss.
Agree he should not go back under any circumstances.

In a 2017 interview, Stevie expressed her annoyance that Lindsey calls tour rehearsals for 2pm so he could "have dinner with his family." Of course we know Stevie wakes up in the late afternoon in her non-touring life.
I think Stevie said in a '98 interview that Lindsey can really mess up your songs if he wants too. The only ones I can think she might be referring to are Twisted and Crystal because she did her own versions solo, and Sweet Girl because she released the demo for it after The Dance. Maybe also When I See You Again and Welcome To The Room Sara (even though those are my favorites on Tango) because they seem to be thought of as garbage here:laugh:

I doubt she will release an album, I see her more like a tour singer. But everything is possible. I just found this article, it's dated aug 22 but don't know if it's old info. I don't look up information about Stevie often.

It just mentions about writing a couple of songs. It doesn't specify if they would be included in a Harry's album, or Stevie's. I understand that it is only the intention, not a project in progress.

Push all vocal squabbles aside, her entire band right now is beyond boring. They're all incredibly talented musicians playing the most vanilla arrangements humanly possible. There's so much auto-pilot going on that a slight change up on the intro to Stand Back feels like an effing revelation. Yeah, it's all live but she might as well use a recording. That arrangement of Gypsy reminds me of those cringe worthy arrangements you hear recorded for Karaoke machines.

yeah she's played that line many times... he'll make your songs good IF he's happy with you etc etc. (And I'm sure he's capable of being petty)
She however has also taken a liiiitttle bit of rare, actual ownership for her own laziness/preference to party over work by saying that when one of your songs doesn't come out how you wanted "you wish you'd been there (in the studio) more" or "you wish you'd tried harder" etc...sooo..... if you think every random thought that you scribble down is genius, and you plonk it out with two fingers and then disappear for months to party / do drugs/ go on tour with another band or whatever it is, and leave it to other people to slave over it and make you look brilliant when you come back for an hour to sing your vocals...well....:shrug: Actions, meet consequences. If you don't take your songs serious enough to actually work on them, why should anyone else....

HER songs performed on the 2018 Tour did not have significant changes from the album versions. All I can think of is that Storms had more keyboard audible in it.
What bands have done with new lineups is rerecord old songs with the new lineup: Blondie, Foreigner, Journey, Kiss

if you think every random thought that you scribble down is genius, and you plonk it out with two fingers and then disappear for months to party / do drugs/ go on tour with another band or whatever it is, and leave it to other people to slave over it and make you look brilliant when you come back for an hour to sing your vocals...well....:shrug: Actions, meet consequences. If you don't take your songs serious enough to actually work on them, why should anyone else....
That makes a lot of sense. I think that happened specially with Tango, and with Street Angel, or so I read.

I almost wonder if she just recorded vocals for Show Them The Way and sent it to the producers and that was the end of it. Stevie just watched Netflix after doing her vocals and let Greg Kurstin, Dave Grohl and Dave Stewart work on it. She's never performed the song live and BLY pointed out, the song is not on her Career Box Set but her Buffalo Springfield cover is.
I still think she'll get an album out before Lindsey. Coming up on a year since Lindsey's self titled album tour started!
