Or is it that reviewers feel they need to warn potential concert-goers that they're not going to be seeing the 115lb., 28 year old Stevie Nicks up on stage?
As if it's such a letdown that a woman no longer looks, in 2005, like she did in 1975 or 1985.

Well, what DOES she do as well as she did then? Hmmmm, lessee......(and I'm trying to be honest, not mean)....
She was the hottest looking chick in Rock.......she sang with her ALL(doing her best Janis that she could muster), she danced and performed like a mad woman. Face it, either she did it TOO well back then, or she's lame in comparison now. One, or the other. Okay, maybe both. She set her own bar too high.
And I'm not trying to toot my Chris horn here, but she sings BETTER than she did 30 years ago. Who else can make THAT claim? And you know what? Even though she sounds even better now, she knew when it was time to call the road quits. She's one smart lady.
