I know the Mirage expanded edition hasn't been released yet, but a lot of us have already seen the video. That's why I'm skipping the DVD version, I already transferred my vhs copy onto dvd. I remember seeing this concert for the first time, probably back in 1987 right after Tango was released, and being overall disappointed. The Chain just seemed messy, Not That Funny went on what seemed like forever, and Stevie really seemed like she was playing up for, and to, the cameras. Sisters of the Moon came across as so fake to me, with the whole speaking in tongues gibberish, and especially during (I think) Eyes of the World, when she's following Lindsey around on stage so she can be on camera. Shockingly apparent how much she wants to be in the spotlight during this concert! And I'm a huge Stevie fan, but it's hard to see her act that way. The only Stevie moment I really love is when the camera catches her singing along with Christine on Love in Store off the microphone- it seems genuine and it's nice to see that she liked the song, too.

Anyway, I would love to hear detailed thoughts by other people on what they think of this performance.
