Having Brad Jeffries on stage for ‘Stand Back’? Cool or cheesy?
 
As seen on SNL, Solid Gold, and in the Red Rocks concert video - do you think having Brad dance with Stevie during the instrumental part added to the performance of the song or the opposite?

Personally, works for me (plus Brad was a hottie!). :)

Roland

P.S. I read that he danced with Stevie during ‘How Still My Love’ as well at the RAL shows (or at least some of them).

I love Brad, but it's cheesy. I always wondered what 99.9% of the audience must have been thinking when he'd just appear out of nowhere, like a crazy fan who got past security. :laugh:

it was total cheese but it was the 80's so who cared? I think it fit in perfectly with the RAL show.

His presence really magnified Mama's lack of coordination and rhythm.

Embarrassingly cheesy. :p

It was either Brad or Pee-Wee Herman. Personally, I think Stevie made the right choice.

My sentiments exactly :nod:

It was cheesy...but I've actually grown fond of seeing him just appear out of nowhere. It makes me smile for some reason. Gotta love the 80's! :D

Ha Ha Ha!
I wondered if that was Stevie's " boy toy " for that tour? I dont know if it's confirmed that they were an item, or even what the time line would have been, but that would be my guess as to why she dragged him around on RAL to dance with her for 10 seconds a night.

Tacky.
Cheesy.
Ridiculous.
Revolting.

I liked it, but looking back on it now I can see how people seeing it now would see it as kind of cheesy. But personally I don't feel that most of us who were fans during that time would feel that we're all that ch- - - HOLY HOTCAKES, BATMAN, the PENGUIN'S back!!!
Sorry, gotta go. ...... ;)

I doubt that he was her "boy toy" considering that he is gay! No straight boy twirls like that. Sorry.:laugh:

This... she dances like Elaine Benes, especially on the Solid Gold performance.

Sorry. I didn't even know that was a gay reference. I just meant that maybe he was her boyfriend, or friend with benefits kind of thing. What I should have said was " pretty boy ".
