That's exactly the existence i would prefer. And if mac weren't playing, i'd hire 'em to! just kidding, i'd probably just travel around doing whatever i wanted. You saw them a lot, though, right? I saw 1 show 2003 (snuck in, not front row) and then 2 back to back ish 2004. It seems that, although they play a lot in California, we can't see as many shows as some of the east coasters, cause all the states are so close together over there, whereas here, for me to go to LA is like a looooooongggg drive :D Anyway, blah, blah, mac blah,

Oh no, I haven't seen them that many times this tour- only four times. I just feel very fortunate that I was able to see them several times. However, since I am only 16 it makes me a little mad that I have missed out on so much. Even if I had become a fan around The Dance, then I would have maybe seen one of those shows and maybe a few Enchanted or TISL shows. I really truely wish I was 30 today and was born in the 70's not the late 80's (after most of my favorite albums even came out!)

I have faith though that Stevie is going to do another record and tour soon. I am praying for that at least!

Please don't let that just be a rumour. The minute she goes solo I need to rob a bank so I can plan a road trip- I am going to every show possible!

Me, too, but i am thirty - I wish I was older so i woulda been a grownup and been able to go to the concerts. I've seen 2 Stevie shows, but from far away. I wanted to see the dance soooooo bad, but was poor, and could not convince anyone to take me/go with me. I don't have any Mac friends...I'm grateful, too that i got to see them, especially twice in the front row. I did not expect to even go the second time, to San Jose, but a certain friend hooked it up, and gave me a ride, and a certain Ledgie got me to the front row, for which i'll be forever grateful....wow, 16 - you're lucky you got to see them so much!!!!wooohoooooo!!!!!!!

Oh, my, god, i'm glad i was told this before i spent my school loans...can you say, front row!!?!?!?!?

Wow. Just reading that gave me the shivers.

It is bittersweet that this is coming to an end. But I am so grateful to have been able to make it to one show in Calgary and to hear my favorite song. Thanks for the review

Jessi came out before the show in Camden last night and talked to a bunch of people up front. One of the things she said was that Stevie was going to Phoenix for a couple of months to write and then was probably going to go out on a solo tour and bring Lori along (Jessi looks very grown up by the way with a very short haircut, I almost didn't recognize her-- she was a hoot!) :wavey:

Okay let me get this straight- she is going to just do a tour and ditch making a new record? Or is she going to release a record and then do a solo tour?

Hey, what Stevie shows did you go to?

I am excited about seeing a Stevie show since "Stand Back" is her only solo song at the SYW shows and is generally the best most energetic performance she gives each night. So if this is always the most fun song then wouldn't her solo tours be double the fun?

Goodbye Baby was haunting Friday night.

Man, I want this tour to never end!!!! I just popped in Live in Boston and I have to say this was a great era in FM's history. Everyone is performing great, the album was fantastic, a great concert DVD was issued, we got a great documentary, Records were reissued, Christine came out with a solo album, this was a great time for the fans!

No, she will go home and write some new songs for the album for two months and then head back to LA to record. Afterward, she'll tour.

Jessi is absolutely adorable. She was wearing a shirt that said "i'm with stupid" and it had an arrow on it...made me laugh. She's totally punk rocked out at the moment and very grown up compared to the little girl that sings just a very sweet, well-adjusted kid. She was an absolute riot :nod:

How old is she about?

She told the girls up front that her birthday is next week and she will be 13.

Jessi
 

I was one of about four people who Jessi talked to for about half an hour. She talked alot about her mom and the difficulties of growing up. She said that Stevie "flew me out as a birthday present and they spent the day together shopping and getting a massage". She also said Stevie was going home to Arizona for "two months, to write" and then going back to Cali "to start her next solo album". She said Lori was hoping to do the next solo tour and Jessi hoped so too. She HATES getting her photo taken and said earlier in the day she was in the hotel pool when a man kept taking her photo. Someone from Stevie's security took his film. COOL! I was waiting for some dumb ass to ask her to take somthing back to Stevie but luckily no one did. One more thing of interest she said was that she was taking "electric guitar lessons". The lady next to me said "you have a great teacher in you aunt" to which Jessi replied "You have obviously never heard my Aunt play, she sucks"....."Lindsey has taught me some stuff though". She was an absolute riot and her Mom kept calling her to make sure she was ok. She said "Mom, I am talking to STevie's fans".
After that she went back to Stevies dressing room and when the show started she came out between SnL holding both of their hands. She gave LB a giant hug, then Stevie a big hug and kiss and went and sat near Cory. When Stevie rocked out with her during Stand Back, it was great and the love they share was so bvious. Stevie dedicated Landslide to Jess and said that she was ready for Jess to "take over for me".
She is definately growing up!
