Yep, Don was a scheduled guest. His name is even on the T-shirt! It was all planned.

He walked out after Stevie was already singing, right?

I don't remember exactly, but that's what it sounds like on the tape. Sounds as if Stevie started the first verse, & then Don came out while Stevie was singing the first chorus. What I remember is that when all the other bands were playing & Don didn't play, I think people generally thought that Don had canceled -- because we didn't know he was going to do a song with Stevie during the Fleetwood set. We figured he'd do his own set like Joe Walsh & Glenn Frey.

Lindsey and Christine played it for her? Did they do a good job?
|
They played it. They did ... you know ... a good job. They didn't play the right chords, but they did fine. The song obviously doesn't need much more than some acoustic guitar strumming & some electric piano.

Thanks for the photos too! I can forgive Stevie for the bags under her eyes...she was going through Hell at that time. Landslide is so sad from this show. "I know she's here"...

It was really a great show in terms of something being weird. I used to call it my favorite live Fleetwood performance, & it probably still is one of my favorites. They were very loud but very clear -- excellent sound from the sound man. Did you read Robert Hilburn's review in the L.A. Times? Les hunted that up & posted it to the BLA. In a year-end Times Calendar, Hilburn called it the best concert in Orange County that year. "Sisters of the Moon" was the best -- it makes the one at the Forum sound like Anne Murray -- & Lindsey got a really huge standing ovation for "I'm So Afraid." The whole night was a combination of unnerving & exhilarating. I'm still looking for my little blue brochure that had Robin's picture on it. I have my T-shirt but I don't think I have my ticket stubs any more.
