Anyone agree with me that Chris gives Steive side eye when she comes on stage for YMLF on the HBO Mirage show.

I don't know. I would have liked to see what Stevie was doing at that moment 0:15

I remember many ledgies were disappointed with Stevie’s Rhiannon performance in The Dance, because of her lack of energy, she was more calm, slow, etc. compared with her 70s and Mirage shows. I wasn’t. I understand she decide to take care of her voice, her health, etc. She was sober by 1997 so it was easier for her to control herself. Yes she was so effusive, emotional, full of energy singing during that great 70s era. But also out of control many times. It is easy to realize those shows damaged her voice in the long term. And let’s remember when we commented about the mistakes she made at the 1982 US festival, like forgetting to get back in time to the microphone, etc. You can't control everything when you're doing cocaine, and it always gets worse. So by 1997 she couldn’t repeat those mistakes.

By the way, my favorite Rhiannon is where she sings Is that what you want from me!!! I love that line. It’s in Tusk Deluxe, I guess it is Tucson 1980.
