*nod* it is quite plain that Stevie was the most emotional about this performance and it meant the most to her. She's always been very patriotic and as she was one of the only 2 Americans in the band (Lindsey has said that he only did the performance because of how much he knew it meant to her). I'm sure they all felt honored in some way, but no one more than Stevie. She also said that that performance was really the end of FM for her because she didn't want to be in an FM that didn't include Lindsey. So I think, combined with her medical problems, it was emotional for her on many levels.

I didn't think she looked that bad either! She sounded really good from what I remember~ I was 11 when Clinton was sworn into office.
