Last night in Atlanta was not "phoned in" at all. Yes, it was the same setlist, but there were lyric changes, and what seemed like a few arrangement differences.
Mostly, Stevie's voice was phenomenal last night. There were times when it seemed to just transcend.....
She was going very high, like on NGBA... albeit she can't belt out the high notes, she sings softly into the mic very high, and then she abruptly changes key... very difficult to do....
Jason, Help me out, here! You said you had seen vocally lazy performances from Stevie in the past, but that last night was anything BUT! Right?
Her voice exercises are really making a difference. She sounds just wonderful!
And no more "planting herself like an oak tree" in front of her mic stand. Our gypsy is back.
All of the band seemed very much in the moment. No, not "phoned in" at ALL.
