Since she opened with R&R, I don't mind that I didn't go.

Great set list. I hope she doesn't start droppings songs the way she has in past tours.

I'm shocked by how little activity there is on here for the opening night of a tour in a major venue..I guess all things must pass.

I was kind of hoping she would have changed up the new song list a little??
At least she is not opening with Secret Love.... but a few of the other new songs might not have been a bad idea? New Orleans, You Might Be The One??

Me too. I've long thought of "Stand Back" as being almost a signature song of Stevie's. I know "Edge Of Seventeen" is always going to close a Stevie Nicks solo show, but "Stand Back" is prominent in her solo sets AND with "Fleetwood Mac." It makes no sense to have a signature song open a set.

Ugh, Enchanted and Rock and Roll? If new songs are dropped for these crappers I will cry.

I'm too exhausted to post much, but just few tidbits till someone puts up a great review.

She came out in a black dress, or possibly 2 pieces...shorter skirt...black top had semi see through sleeves if i recall. She had on some kind of bracelet or cuff on the sleeves. She looked fab. I was about half way back cause i got a seat last second, but I'm sure those up close can give a much better description.

She didn't do the red dress at all. Had the appropriate GDW and SB shawls, in fact she commented that the SB shawl was the original one from back in the day. I'll be honest, i don't know from my vantage point if she changed totally for Rhiannon, but whatever she came out in was on until Edge where she wore white.

Few other things I remember:

Some of you may know that NYC was around 100 degrees today. But by showtime and given the location of the venue the weather was great. Windy though. When you see video you'll see there were times were Stevie's hair was covering her face. She made the best of it. Nowhere near the Sturgis show, but it was constant wind and at one point she's like...ok wind, i'm done with you. I enjoyed watching everything sway and shimmy from the wind though. It just made it seem less staged if that makes any sense.

She was hysterical this evening. She kept cracking little jokes and making just funny comments. I can't explain it exactly, but she seemed more spontaneous than I recall in awhile. She even said she just watched rehearsals last week cause she lost her voice and well, she's winging it. She just seemed to go with the flow moreso than I've seen her previously.

When introducing Annabel Lee, she gave her schtick about Poe, and blah blah, then she said "but he was married...not that it has every stopped me before..." That got a good rousing response. She was just so matter of fact about it.

What else....Edge was awesome....given my seat, not a prayer for the edge walk, BUT the verse and wail that were missing last year are BACK!! I was ecstatic when I heard her go there.

She dedicated Landslide to Rebecca and Liz, the former being I assume her friend for many years and I assume the latter being Rosenberg. I noticed a pic of her mom stayed up at the end for awhile. And I thought she was going to do something for her mom there, but she didn't then.

But after Love Is. She just stood at the microphone and guys...she pretty much lost it. It was heartbreaking...just started to tear and explain how the first half of this year has been so hard. She didn't say why, but we knew. And she thanked us and said that after tonight, and having this performance, she now knows that she will be ok. Totally paraphrasing there, and I'm sure the ledgies up close will give much better specifics, but it definitely had the feel of the Woodstock HAEWAFY ending.

Overall, she was amazing and I think she enjoyed being there as much or more as we enjoyed having her there.

Oh, that's just hilarious. I love it that she's having so much fun with her own history.

Poe was married to his 13 year old cousin and it probably is best if he did cheat.

What a touching moment you described at the end when she talked about how hard the year has been and cried. How intimate.

Thanks so much for the review.

Michele

Just back from Jones beach. Very tired but a few observations for you. Before Stevie came out, the venue audio system played Fade Away (Stevie singing). I wish she had actually sung it as an opener instead of R&R since I think she would have fun singing it and it's a great song. Stevie mentioned that she had lost her voice and was not able to sing in rehersals so that she was "flying by the seat of her pants but it wasn't the first time". I thought her voice sounded good.
Several pictures of Stevie's mom have been added to the Landslide slide show including a closing photo of Barbara Nicks wearing a Stevie moon necklace. Stevie seemed very upbeat and was quite chatty while introducing the band and her new songs. She talked about hanging out with Edgar Allen Poe 200 years ago and telling him she was going to write a song to his Annabelle poem. She said Sharon and Lori were there too (hanging out with Edgar). Love silly Stevie.
Soldier's Angel was great live. There was a strong breeze but not a Sturgis storm, and the effect was magical. Stevie mentioned that she doesn't have her own children but feels like a mother now to those brave young soldiers. She asked the audience to give a little to the USO and a wounded soldier's charity. It is clear to see her dedication to our troops.
During the show Stevie commented on what a good wind machine the actual wind was and further into the set she said that she had it with all the wind and commanded (with outstretched arm)the wind to stop. Unfortunately for Stevie, she is not a witch and the breeze kept blowing.
Love Is was the closer. It was quite moving and very quiet (No shout outs that I could hear) and afterwards Stevie started to cry and said she hadn't sung in 5 months and thank you to her small (?) audience that it made her feel like she was going to be alright. Very quiet followed by big applause.

Thank you to the Newsday contest for the complimentary tickets! It was my first time to Jones beach and I thought the venue location was spectacular!
