Since so many wanted to state that Stevie is the biggest draw to Mac shows, I compared attendance to her solo shows and the current Mac shows. If she was such a big draw, her solo shows would be sold-out and she'd make more than $14 million. If she was such a big draw, she would headline some arenas. If she was such a big draw, her ticket sales wouldn't lag, even when good seats are under $70.
And Lindsey didn't just tour as an opening act for Tina, he did that after his tour across the US in intimate venues.

i stand corrected on the lindsey/tina opening act. i wasnt aware that he toured completely for that cd, good for him, i loved that cd. and may i ask how did that tour do, how much did he gross and what were his ticket prices, just curious... as for what ever stevies venues she played , i think the attendance appeared to be full, i will admit i dont keep my nose in bill board for numbers of sales and tickets and such, but i just believe that if stevie wasnt involved with this fm tour it wouldnt be as successful..i know fm is all of them , and yes ppl want to see fm the whole package , but do you think honestly if stevie didnt tour they could get away with omitting her songs from the set, do you think the crowd would accept lindsey singing all stevies lead vocals, do you think they would accept a hired woman singer to try to replace stevie, or do you think an audience would be more accepting of having a new guitarist back up stevie on a fm tour .. like it was stated earlier this has nothing to do with the love we have for lindsey or stevie, just the facts. i do believe that lindsey s production with the mac, is best no doubt in my mind!!! he definately adds to fm .
