Surprised she did it. I never understood Fall From Grace. Granted its probably in the better half of songs on TISRL but that is not saying much. I think I hate the song is because of her performance in 2001 at the Blockbuster awards show. I forget if it was Sheryl or Stevie that said they plotted to play a song to blow everyone out of their seats and picked this song. Its not a rocker at all and the music track is rather tame and bland. It does not even have much guitar or a guitar solo in it. Its a slightly faster or up-tempo song that she normally performs but that's not saying much. She has much better "rockers" to put in her set.
I always liked Rhiannon and Landslide as encores. When she did that in 1991, I thought it was the perfect encore set. This set is heavy in Mac tunes and she performed every one of her Mac singles except Seven Wonders. We all assumed she would play For What Its Worth. So I assume Sara and Fall From Grace are the surprises?
I will applaud Billy for not being an egomaniac like Rod Stewart. He stepped on her stage and sang a song with her.
Lastly, my call about Chris's tribute was right and appropriate. A Landslide dedication is all that's needed. Some were getting way too creative thinking she was going to perform Dont Stop with Billy or dig into Think About It. Come on Stevie fans. You should know better than anyone that NOTHING EVER CHANGES.
Billy really does add an edge to SDMHA. I like that she gave him the entire second verse to sing. He seems to almost flub at :58 and has to look at the monitor for lyrics. Come on now. The lyrics are not that tough. But kudos for Billy. He definitely gave some power to the song.

You were right about Sara and I think I said she wouldn't do it because she only brought it back once in recent years for a taping. If she did Angel, then that would have been freaking nuts!
