When the band talks about fans, they are talking about the thousands of people filling those arenas each night, and those people are there for the old staples. When I saw the SYW tour, it was shocking how many people went for beer or bathroom breaks when Lindsey was doing "Come," and when I saw the TISL tour, there was plenty of grumbling on the way out about the omission of "Landslide."  |
True, a disc jockey, just checked Stevie when she discussed wanting to explore lesser known songs in concert and said she had to perform the classic hits. He was saying, "don't say you HAVE to do it. We want you to want to perform those songs." And he basically cut off her talk about rarer tracks. I would expect a DJ to be a little more open-minded, but he represents those casual fans out there. That's what they want.
