I agree, Stevie's overdubs on Everywhere were awkward, but it sounded less severe live. (I thought her harmonic "wells" during the chorus of Isn't it Midnight enhanced the song.) She's Stepford Stevie in the video - very controlled and mannered - but she was much more spontaneous and spirited during the performances I saw.
I wish the video had the entire show, because I feel the abbreviated set list is somewhat lethargic.

I agree. From this thread it almost seems like the band wasn't quite as bad as some would make you believe. If only I was around back in those days!!! I know they played Freedom Hall that year, so I soooooo would have been there!!!
