I have to start by saying that I have been mainly a Lindsey-FM fan for quite some time, but after this tour I really think my feelings have changed to where I like Stevie more at the moment.
To reply to the above quote...since the Dance Stevie has had a boxset AND a new fabulous solo album while Lindsey has done...0. He's been waiting in his studio for Stevie and FM.
Also, I attended the FM show in Philly and East Rutherford, and I have to say that during the show I was really excited to see Lindsey. His energy was amazing! Stevie's voice was beautiful and Beautiful Child was THE song of the night, IMHO. She looks like she is enjoying herself very much on stage, too.
Something strange I noticed while watching a DVD copy of that Philly show...and listening to songs from other shows that I was able to download, though, is that Stevie's performances were still strikingly beautiful while Lindsey's seemed strained and TOO out of control. I couldn't believe that I actually cringed while he was singing Come because all it was really was him screaming. If Stevie were to sing like that, people would be knocking her. :-(
Plus, if you watch Come...Lindsey doesn't play the cool guitar. He only plays the solo.

I would like him to do more of his own playing.
Stevie's songs and the way she performed them still had a lot of class while Lindsey's mostly showed a lot of showboating. I miss the classy Dance Lindsey that would SING a song and then act humble to the applause.
JMHO.
Love,
Jo
