I hope it does make her a little bit concerned. I hope this sends home the message that she can't expect people to keep paying to see the same tired sh*t over and over again, especially when tickets cost $160 a pop. Money talks, as the old saying goes...
I'm with you here!! Same songs, same outfits, same videos do not generate excitement and they certaintly don't generate revenue. That's just plain business sense. I never thought Stevie would be an entertainer who would "rest on her laurels" but...I believe it has happened. I do like the new order of the songs but that's not going to be enough to sell out venues.
