I wondered about this. I did think it was a last minute job, but we didn't hear about the background till now.

I am still not entirely convinced she will do it, but Maui, the rehearsals in LA and the brief newspaper comments she gave this year all suggest she's more confident than she was ten years ago, for whatever reason.

I think a walk on for You make loving Fun and either everywhere or Say you love me would be a wonderful little camo !:blob2:

I'm guessing she's guest on Don't Stop.

If ever there was going to be a DVD of this tour, it's gotta be this date. C'mon, FM, get your crap together; two new songs AND Christine returning for a few songs!? This DVD would sell like hot cakes!!

That's what I would have expected too, but she participated to such an extent with Mick in Hawaii, performing songs she had not performed in years that I now expect more from her reunion with the current Macsters. She's even more familiar with their songs than with Get Like You Used to Be.

It's heartening to hear she rehearsed with them. Even if she didn't appear on stage, it makes me feel good to think that she did. Of course, I'd love pictures.

They could tack Songbird on with little effort at all. Christine could do it with John and Lindsey, if they wanted to. Or she could do it alone with the whole band crying in the wings, instead of just John:laugh:. It would be lovely to close the show like that one last time and it's something she could rehearse alone, so she could be up to speed to do it by the time they got to London.

Michele

Elle! Why didn't you say this before?

Michele

Who knows? I suspect from the recent interview where she referred to 'duets' she means Don't Stop and WT. No harm in her chipping in on, say, The Chain and Rhiannon though. Ooh, and GYOW! :D

The right London show. That's a serious problem. Also, you don't have to strain yourself getting pictures of her when she's on stage alone. Those would be nice, but my top priority is pictures of when she's with the others. I don't need to go to my grave seeing her hugging Steven Tyler. Not that there's anything wrong with that -- it's just . . .

Michele

I'm at the last show (Fri 27th) so I will have my camera on standby. However, I could only get seats in the nosebleeds :(

Oh, that's exciting. It's the night I would have chosen. You know we will all be here with bated breath waiting for reports from attendants.

Michele

sorry, thought i may have told you all... it's been a whirlwind few weeks, trying to catch up back on normal life. was trying to convey the most important stuff, like the fact that Mick seems to be pretty certain she'll perform at one of the London shows.

guess i'm kinda unsure that i completely believe Mick's story about how the Maui gig happened, you know? he also told an elaborate story about how Christine's afraid of flying, how he held her hand all the way from London to HI, etc etc. he talked some about Steven Tyler too. there were several ledgies at DC m&g when he was telling us this, so they may remember more, if they are reading this thread.

he was also asked about Fleetwoods that used to be in DC. seems no hope of reviving that one.

DC q&a peeps had some really good questions, not your usual run-of-the-mill stuff we all read 1000s of times, like it was in Philly.

i think Viv will also be at the last London show. she's usually not the one for taking pics and vids, but maybe we can coax her into it, i'll certainly try. :D :cool:

I wonder how she got home and if she had a friend or relative making the return trip with her.

Michele

I'm staying with my brother who lives just outside London. The minute I get back I will report. :nod: I still can't let myself believe Christine will be there on my night though, so I'm not getting my hopes too high.
