Yes. While live and not lip synced like Tango there was still major editing on the Mirage shows. Sisters is spliced together near the end. Stevie almost gets to the microphone late on Gypsy during recording. But its real, not staged and used primitive editing effects.
The US Festival was really sloppy for a reason.
Funny because on the clip that David posted Stevie is still yacking what she forgets to get running back to her "tent." She went on about this during the US Festival in 1983. Its like almost unconsciously she knows she cant control her urge for another bump and makes up stories to tell the audience over and over. First it was a brush and then she forgot something else.
On the rock album countdown (in the early 80s on radio) she was asked why she spends so much time back stage at Fleetwood Mac shows. She said she was breathing steam for her voice.
