I've NEVER seen this pic!?!

[Livia]

So, here I am, poking around Joe Ely's website, looking up song lyrics and what-not. I'm seeing him on New Year's Eve, it's been awhile, he puts on a great show! Anyway, I'm looking at the photos and I found this. I wonder what song they were doing??? I knew Joe had gone on tour, opening for Tom Petty, but had never heard about them performing together, let alone Stevie joining them onstage! It's from Lakeland, Florida - wonder if this was another live "Insider" night? (Edit: I just looked at David's list again, it was!) There are a lot more great pics of Joe w/ various musicians here:

That's cool! I'll have to tell Joe to update the info on his website.

That photo looks like it could have been taken at the same performance as the quick glimpse we get to see of Stevie & Tom on stage in the "Sometimes It's A Bitch" video.

Damn, you beat me. I was going to say, the only thing that's *really* recognizable is that darn tambourine.

What about the boots and that unmistakable profile? It's like a Rorshach (sp?) - her profile is the dark part and her hair is white, especially the white "poof" under her chin. I also don't think it's "Street Angel" hair - I think the lighting just makes it look that way. I believe her hair in this pic is just like it was for the Insider and Stop Draggin' videos, without the beady hair clip thingies.

Here's another y'all may not have seen. I don't think I need to explain who the other person in the pic is.




Sorry so grainy.

Thanks, Vicky! You're right, I've never seen that one before either.

[ontheEdgeof17]

wow. She was one hot lady.

I wish she would go back to that light brown hair color. It looks good on her.

Two things, DO you know when this was taken? ADn the other is I wonder what song they were singing? I hope it was Blonde In The Blue T-Bird or Finally Found A Girlfriend and not Magnet And Steel, cause I dont like that song at all, but knowing how big a hit it was, I'd guess that was probably it.

I don't know what year it's from or what song. I just looked at the file name and no clues there either. Walter was the opening act for Fleetwood Mac on several dates of their Rumours tour, so I assume the picture is probably from 1978 and the song likely was Magnet and Steel, but could also have been "Only the Lucky" or "The Blonde in the Blue T-Bird" which are included in a set list from his tour diary. Another possibility is that it was "Sisters of the Moon," which Walter had also been playing during that tour, though I don't know if Stevie ever joined him for it.
