Stevie Live @ Red Rocks
 
I bought this DVD on-line at Best Buy. I thought it was a bargain at $6.99. Never seen it & I'm watching it tonight. I think that I've seen it talked about on here. I'm really eager to watch it :blob1: & I'll let you all know what I think about it tomorrow.

I think it is an awful concert, the worst I have seen :sorry:

Please let us know what you think about it. Most of us have never seen it before, nor have we ever discussed it. What a wonderful new topic ;), great idea, thanks!!!

red rocks
 
hi guys...i've had the dvd for a few years and only watched it 2 xs. i think the thing that bothers me about it is the fact she is so coked up. especially when she comes out for the edge at the end. her eyes are glazed over she's so out of it. not my fav either but i had to have it as an addition to my all stevie things. i'm glad that part of her life is over. not only for her but for us as fans as well....pat (long time fan)

The coked out live parts don't bug me at all- I, like most eveyone else, hate the fake close-ups. So cheesy. But, it really is a must have for any Stevie fan.

Preach it, sistah! :nod: Way too much editing & cheesy effects.

If Stevie hadn't been ditzy & possibly bombed, I'd have ignored her all those years. It's the closeups & cheesy camera work that bug me, too, about that video. They ruined it. It could have been great, had it been a genuine record of her show. But all it is now is a cream cheese production. The Weedsport radio broadcast that year had more honest-to-god Rock a Little spirit than this cream cheese production did.

I actually love this version of Edge- the crazy , wacked out, passionate vibe of it.

I liked it
 
actually. Yeah, she seemed a little glassy-eyed at times, well most times, but I thought she rocked. Didn't like the 80s big hair thing. Hubby thought she was hot. She seemed a little stiff the first couple of songs, but seemed to moved around after that. It was great seeing Frampton & Mick. Waddy hasn't changed a bit. The red, leather pants were cool! Who was the woman guitar player? I recognized Sharon & Lori, but I don't know who the other woman was. Man, and Sharon was a real stick back then. She hasn't changed much. I couldn't tell where the dove came from, someone in the audience gave it to her? Was the dove doing drugs, too? :laugh: He looked scared; he wouldn't go anywhere. I like the way she sings B&TB now though, more feeling to it. And they kept showing Mick; he's the beast, isn't he? I loved Edge. I thought the crowd was going to swallow her up. The scenery was really nice. I wish this concert could have been longer. All in all, I think my $6.99 was money worth spent! :nod:

This is not my favorite live video either. I'm glad I have it, but the production is pretty shoddy. Again, I wish it was the whole set. I know during the concert, there crane shot camera failed, so I wonder if that's why they re-shot the close up's.

I hate that cheezy dance number during Stand Back. I cringe everytime.

I love Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You and the Edge of Seventeen fan walk. Adorable.

I still don't why they released this concert and not the HBO White-Winged Dove show. A much better shot and performed live show.

I can't watch Red Rocks....it is sad for me to see her that way....one of those moments Mick describes as "times where she didn't remember" :distress: It is just so crazy and unnatural for me to watch...I have owned it for eons, and I have probably watched it twice :o
