An idea for Sisters
 
So I have a little idea that might help get Sisters of the Moon back into the set. Why don't we start making posters for our concerts with "Sisters of the Moon" written on them? Might be a good way to let the band know that fans are really wanting to hear the song again. Can't hurt :shrug: .

kinda like protest signs... That and if every fan that buys the "meet and greet" could mention it... that's another way.

I want Frozen Love, or Crystal or I Don't Want To Know or That's Alright, or Crying in the Night, Long Distance Winner, Illume, or Thrown Down alot more in the set than Sisters of the Moon. She can't sing that song with the same passion anymore.

She doesn't really sing any of her songs with much passion these days though :shrug: . But I agree, I'd love to hear ANY of the songs you listed! :thumbsup:

As would I! Especially Thrown Down and Frozen Love. However, Sisters of the Moon would be my first choice, although it's probably unlikely that she could muster the requisite intensity to pull off that song anymore, but I hope upon hope to be proven wrong on that in the near future.

I have a feeling she already knows how much people want to hear SOTM, but it's difficult to just change a set in the middle of a tour.

Gypsycat999 04-10-2009 11:02 AM

I'd love to see her singing ANY Buckingham Nicks song they're not already doing. But for any reason she doesn't seem to want that. Of course, it would be different than in the 70s but I'm sure it'd still be awesome. And I'd LOVE to hear SOTM...

goldustsongbird 04-10-2009 06:32 PM

What's with the damn Sisters obsession? :laugh: I bet if she did it, half the people who were pulling for it would be complaining because she modified it too much to fit her current voice. She can't pull it off anymore.

tgmdc! I didn't know she owned Jeremy Spencer's infamous dildo.

You people are crazy if you don't think Stevie has the ability or the intensity to do this danmed song. The only songs she is lazy with these days are the songs people who go crazy for if she spoke them without any music playing (Rhiannon, Dreams, Gypsy) She almost always comes through with a lesser known song. And again this is NOT a hard song to sing. In fact there is very little singing to do. In fact the slow moodiness of the song is right up Stevie's alley these days. She can do a few short passionate lines and then during the instrumentals slink into the shadows while Lindsey and the guys kick the **** out of it. And we've all seen the recent Silver Springs, she can be INTENSE.

I agree. Not all historic performances of the song were as wild as the Mirage version either, something I think people fail to recognize.

Hawkeye 04-10-2009 09:50 PM

The only thing she couldn't do now is do the ending she did on the Mirage video, but she didn't do that ending back on the Tusk or even the Mirage tour. That tounges thing was a one time thing almost. She didn't do THAT in Baton Rouge or Memphis shows from that same short 27 date tour. She can do Memphis 82 now. She can do Atlanta 80 and St. Louis 79 (my personal favorite)

Yes, I think she knows a lot of what people want. It seems lately these topics that have been vigorously discussed on this and probably other boards magically come out in interviews (the real story on the boots, doing lesser known songs in the future, etc.) I've always thought someone in her camp visits fan boards, etc. on a regular basis to get the real scoop and then decides how much info. they want to share with Stevie (considering her ultra sensitive nature). She may be a complete technofobe but that doesn't mean the people around her are. I think she probably is more aware of a lot of things than most people think.

Taku used to do that -- & maybe still does.

I agree. Great post. Stevie can still kick ass on a song if she wants to and like you said. SS ending is intense and if she can also do FFG like she did on Sound Stage, it would work. It is just the perfect Stevie moody song to do and Lindsey and the boys would still kick it while Stevie was in the shadows. It would definitely be a highlight of the show with thousands of jaws dropping to the floor in amazement.

In range, it's G3 to A5 -- not a big deal, even for Stevie nowadays.

They should do it!

I listened to "Sisters" for the first time yesterday in a long while (the album version). Whenever I think of the song, I always think of the Mirage video version - a hard act to follow... But she could totally pull off this song today. There's not a whole lotta singing in this song that would require vocal strain unless she wanted to take it to that level - and there's long breaks between versus for recovery if she did. Her vocal register of today is completely compatible too I think... Plus there's places in the song for Lindsey to go bananas - especially the end... The background singers would have to get their sh*t together to do the Ohhs & Ahhs. But yeah... They should attempt it.

That's exactly what I've been trying to say! If she can pull off Beautiful Child and Storms with gusto these past two tours, she can do an original style Sisters! Her voice register during Tusk was lower than it had been for Rumours, something I think people also forget. Come on Stevie... you can do it!! :thumbsup:

Exactly.

Now, let's bring back SOTM.

skcin 04-15-2009 12:59 PM

FYI - most venues I've been too don't allow signs/posters, at least not anything larger than an 8x10 sheet of paper. :shrug:

alwaysbeen 04-15-2009 02:34 PM

As much as I like SOTM I think hearing Crystal would be amazing. SOTM would be great too, maybe Angel, but Crystal is what I want to see from them at some point. What about No Questions Asked? She could probably rock that one out.

StreetAngel86 04-20-2009 04:40 AM

if i was wasting my energy on something that more than likely would never eventuate...i would be gunning for Everybody Finds Out over SOTM :thumbsup:
