I have to admit, I think some people read drugs into a lot of things Stevie said/did, when in fact she may have just been being silly or funny...naturally. I'm not trying to deny her plethera of coked and Klonopin-ed out moments, I'm just saying it's not like EVERY SINGLE THING she did during those years was drug-influenced! (Well, maybe not with the Klonopin because she was taking that regularly, i.e. every day on a schedule. But I still think there's a good chance she would've told off the security in Bristol the same way without drugs! In her heart, she does not want people "f--king with us"!) I don't think she seems unusually high in the In Concert video...walking to the stage she just seems genuinely nervous, as I can imagine she indeed was. I see a lot more amazing, natural passion in this performance than coke. Stevie can be THAT powerful without drugs! Believe it!

She didn't seem high to me either. Yes, she was exuberant, but attributing all pre-1987 energy to drugs if unfair to her.
