I agree that the band does not seem to be doing this tour to get the creative juices flowing. That could very well be one reason why Stevie appears disengaged. I suspect she will get better as the weeks progress.
What I am realizing is that this is a band that often takes baby steps when it comes to making tour changes. We get excited by the number of spins Stevie does, the color dress she wears (I do too). The Stand Back, 1,2,3,4, was one of the big highlights. Looking at it again tonight, I can't help but think that there is so much more potential to this band. Unleashed, this is not.
In my imaginary perfect tour, they would have revived songs from the Buckingham Nicks era, particularly Frozen Love. I may still buy a ticket for this tour just because seeing something is better than nothing, I think.
