Maybe I'm not quite as much a die-hard as everyone else in terms of Stevie, because although I didn't get that much from either of her performances, I didn't feel the lack as hard as some. I wasn't coming in expecting
too much out of her, however, which sounds terrible but I always figured her "thing" was the singing and the twirls and the allure stuff, which is really interesting but has never done anything for me personally.
When I saw her on "Live In Boston" I did think she was just kind of
there, but it didn't bother me. I figured she was just playing her role and her strengths were less in your face. I probably go to these concerts focusing way too much on Lindsey and just paying him far too much attention, but I have to hand it to Stevie as well. She had a few costume changes and some huge heels and she's not exactly young. From one woman to another, I totally commend her in doing what she does. It's why she has all the fans and admirers and people posting non-stop on her board, dressing like her, and forever heralding her as the "Queen of Rock and Roll."
And that's cool for them. I'm a straight-up Lindsey girl. I'm used to expecting people to not know who he is, spelling his name wrong, and completely ignoring his contributions whenever FM is discussed in passing by casual fans. It's the norm to me, and yet I feel privileged because he's
sooooooo amazing in so many ways and many times people leave these shows with a whole other perception of him. It's good to see him getting his dues, and he absolutely deserves them.
