it's been noted at various shows over and over. apparently the lowest was at the DC show, to the point that LB came out for the encore holding Christine's hand and kissing her, instead of holding Stevie's hand as is the part of their usual choreography this year. i have a video of that Chris/Linds encore entrance, even.

sometime between DC and CT show they must have finally reached a turning point in their album negotiations, because people report that CT show on saturday was much more normal again.

plus from saturday on, both LB and SN started telling people that each of them is planning solo tour some time in 2016.

so they finally must have firmed up some plans,
instead being in the standstill and limbo as it had been the case from the start of the tour, it seems. at least i hope so! :thumbsup:


which sounds like no FM recording anytime soon to me.
FM work takes them through 2015. So in 2016, Stevie needs some time off from FM for that year so, as before, Lindsey decides to fill that time with solo work..? :shrug:

Not mad at Lindsey… mad at Stevie. I mean come on. What does this mean for FM album?? 2017 recording for 2018 release??? :mad:

no i choose to think it means SN will finally record with them the summer of 2015 (maybe even april?), instead of the solo summer tour some said she was originally planning during a break in the FM world tour.

but then again, FM77 thinks there will be no AUS FM tour in 2015. although who knows, he may not be up to speed because these people seem to have been changing their plans as the tour is going on, trying to convince each other (i.e. Stevie) what they should do, or some other things may happen... ;)

If you really want some highlights, there's a list of every show with all the good SnL songs linked to here:

but hasn't she said she *will* do some touring for 24k when the Mac tour is over? If the last Mac dates are 6/30, she's gotta get her band together, rehearse, and then do some shows. That'll be at least the summer of 2015 right there.:shrug:

She said in JANUARY of this year at the Grammys red carpet that:

“I can just tell you I’m looking forward to two different tours next year and I’m looking forward to American Horror Story…”

This is nothing new.

agreed, but I was just speaking to elle's timeline, saying that if we take Stevie at her word, she won't be available to record with FM next summer as elle hoped.:sorry:

I thought the quote was "two tours THIS year" and we were wondering if she was going to do some guest spots with Dave Grohl or something before starting the FM tour.

So sad, album drama is all you got. LOL.

For all anyone knows Stevie's vocals have already been laid down. Just as the case was with the EP when they kept stirring the pot saying Stevie wasn't on board - when in fact that EP had been in the can for months. I know because a friend of mine had a contact who had already seen the artwork and knew how many tracks were on it.

So, the point is - music tracks go down first. Vocals go down last. No matter what the spin is - from Mick or anybody else - the buzz that Stevie is "refusing" to do an album is a bit OTT to me. Lindsey has already said she would be laying down her vocals and he didn't seem like it was a big deal or fight - it's been stated as a definite happening. Fact is she could be laying her vocals down in a hotel room right now or maybe they will wait until there's a good break in the tour. What may be more unknown is the record label part. The EP was not on a label.

The speculating that there's friction over the album involvement seems really off to me. They sure seemed happy enough on the last tour when Lindsey kept saying there was "no new album ... yet!"

Don't think the issue is Stevie doesn't want to be involved. Why would Stevie "Never Leave Your Band" Nicks not be all about doing one last album now that one of the million BFF's is back? I would think she would be on that like white on rice.

But, label or other negotiations - or things getting held up or put on back burners or the timing of solo projects... I would think there are a lot of business matters that could be ticking people off (and by people I mean SnL because the other 3 look pretty ecstatic...). I doubt we will ever know the details.

Tell Mick you will buy a case of his wine and voila....money talks with Mick!:lol: Hell, the hostess (outside his restaurant) is made to stand there with a copy of Tango in the NIght in her hand trying to lure in potential customers. True story.

ok, here goes!
Saw the concert in Toronto on Oct 18. Was sitting fairly far back so couldn't really tell how they were walking on together, or how much they were interacting, other than what was on the jumbo-tron. It seemed normal. And the concert was incredible. I was a little worried after hearing the Today show performance. Christine had sounded a bit off, but I didn't want to chime in with the skeptics that were saying she was terrible, because, come on........she's 71 yrs old and doing something that most of us could never even attempt. And especially at that time in the morning. So, needless to say, in Toronto they sounded phenomenal.

Jump to Winnipeg on Monday night....November 10. Stevie walked out with Christine, which was a new one for me. I watched them pretty carefully to see what type of interaction was going on. For the first part of the concert, there was little interaction between her and Lindsey. My heart was sinking, except that the music kept buoying it up!! For Landslide, no interaction until the end when he smiled at her, and she smiled at him. When the lights went down, then he came over and gave her a half hug and a kiss on the side of the head. Phew, I was relieved. The rest of the show was pretty standard, except with little interaction between them. Now, the interesting thing was that Stevie seemed to be having sooo much fun up there. She was more goofy, giggly, and just looked genuinely happy. As did Mick, Chris and Lindsey. John always looks the same. All 3 of the voices sounded better than I could have imagined. Stevie sounded so much better than last years tour, and Chris sounded just like 35 years ago. Lindsey always sounds good, as Mick said at a meet and greet-"nothing seems to affect his voice, no matter how much screaming he does." Once, Lindsey did his crazy guitar move towards Stevie, and she did that shy away thing that she does when the crazed guitar player is coming at her. But she had a big smile on her face, and he was laughing too. They just all seemed happy, but without having to act like they still pine for each other (which I'm sure they do!!). Don't get me wrong, I love the pining for each other act. Maybe Kristin was here??? But that would be next to impossible, and that hasn't stopped them in the past. My sister kept commenting that Mick looks like he loves every single minute of what he is doing. Stevie and Lindsey stood next to each other with the bows at the end. They were touching, I think had their arms linked or something like that.

Thank you for the recap of Monday night! I'm going to tonight's concert and I'm hoping they will all be in a good mood. :thumbsup:

Thanks for your review. Glad to hear the overall mood seemed good. I think we aren't getting great videos and pictures this year as much as last year. Obviously, last year was about BN. This year it's about Christine's return. Too much SnL interaction would be unnecessary - none though is ridiculous. I don't care what their relationship is offstage - if you are onstage together you need to not ignore that there are other people up there too - especially with the other frontmen.

Let the good times roll. :)
