Drugs?

She looks in pretty good spirits in the photos, not like she wasn't feeling well and was performing feeling under the weather or something.

In the beginning sometimes I think the rigors of touring just wore Stevie out... she often complained about it. Discipline was not always her strong suit. Yet often she seemed kinda clueless about how really bad some of those shows in those days were.

She has said that some of the earlier performances were bad and that she wished she had known at the time. She started taking vocal lessons and eventually started to use the ear monitors. RS has always been disrespectful to her.

Yes, they have ALWAYS crapped on her, especially Kurt Loder. I cringed when Bella Donna came out and he was the reviewer. Shivers.

Agreed! Over the years RS had nothing positive to say about Stevie. It's only been the last several years that RS "Gets Ms.Nicks"

Because they've finally gotten a new roster of writers/reviewers instead of the misogynistic coots they had before.
