Since this thread was supposed to be about Mirage rehearsals, lets talk about the Mirage rehearsals. I wish there was a professional polished soundboard of this. Its so good. Really good versions of Straight Back and Gypsy. Stevie has some really great vocals and then she seems like she is mailing it in since its a rehearsal. They keep restarting Sara which I cant understand why. Chris says something like "its not the piano" I could listen to those restarts all day. Chris sings Dreams and in the early days of the internet there used to be a Chris version of Gypsy going around. Makes you wonder why Chris was singing Stevie songs during rehearsal. Was Stevie ditching rehearsals? But I may have tied the connection (will I get some ribbons and some bows?)
In the Mirage limo tapes we hear Chris say she wants Lindsey to sing one of her songs. I am just assuming she is talking about rehearsal. Stevie comments something like she would like to but couldn't sing one of Chris's songs (something like that). I wonder if they were driving to rehearsals and this is why Chris was singing Stevie songs? Just a theory.
Was there not a Tusk limo tape too? I enjoy the limo tape to a point. But listening to people really high and stoned gets annoying because they focus on the dumbest stuff. Stevie wont shut up and Mick keeps telling her "will you let me talk?" Then he says she's out to lunch
They argue and debate about the dumbest stuff. Stevie again asking "Does anyone have any pot?" Then I swear you hear her say the word "coke" It also sounds like someone is constantly raking coke before the drive and during the drive. It was Mick that secretly recorded these? That's creepy. It sounds like they are leaving Mirage rehearsals. Its a real time stamp because Stevie is talking about Robin's cancer treatment.
