I'm glad you got it up and running.

What DVD burning software package did you use to burn it.

I happen to look on Comcast ON Demand to check and see if OWN put up Stevie's interview.So far its NOT up .or they do not have that show available on ON Demand.

Nor post the complete show on their website but they have clips of the show posted now on their site.

It was on my computer. It's called, "Windows DVD maker" (I'm pretty sure).

that's not "BLESSED" that is usually the result of hard work , but in her case luck , Money make things easier both good things and bad . and fame is not all it's cracked up to be , people who crave it usually have a reason a need to feel loved .she's more tragic she gave up a man she loved for a career , she gave up any children for a career drugs almost took the career and her life she's lucky she had a man who took her with him fleetwood mac did not want her she survived drug addition twice and she still has a viable career that's luck and determination

She was a pampered rock star -- Sex, Drugs and Rock and Roll. Poor Stevie -- no way! She has a need to be loved? so does 85% of the population.

Another complaint I have about Stevie is that, yes she was an alcoholic. She was drunk every day for many years. Even relying on a shot of tequila before going onstage makes you an alcoholic. I never believed her when she said she took a shot because someone who had spent as many years as she had drinking would need a heck of a lot more than a shot to calm ones nerves.
While I'm on my tangent, I was mad they used a Tusk Stevie photo when referencing the Buck/Nicks/Fritz days and I only saw about 5 pics I'd never seen before.

I respect your opinion as well, but I've never known a true alcoholic to go from a drunk to a social drinker. I shouldn't have made a blanket statement that nobody listened. Of course not everyone was doing drugs, although at times it was hard to tell!

Edit: Wow!! I've been here for almost four years and only have 83 posts??

Right ..alcoholism is a progressive disease.One does not go from a dysfunctional drinker that drinks to intoxication every time they drink to suddenly being able to enjoy a couple of glasses of wine with dinner and have no further incidences of binges..It just does not happen.

that's your perception, there is a lot more than she lets on to there is no way she is going to "open up" it none of our business anyway there is a reason she chased fame and why drugs filled the gap and right now only she knows that and the other 85% some do the same or worship those who do what ever fills the need

Yes, and they've all been relatively blessed in life as well. You can have hardships AND be blessed. One doesn't negate the other.

And for the record, I've met Honey Boo Boo and her family and they were WONDERFUL people. Kind and genuine when they didn't need to be. I don't believe they've thrown away their self-respect - rather, they respect themselves enough to be proud of their lifestyle regardless of how the general public perceives it. But that's a discussion for another thread.

After watching the show and some of the online clips, I do have to question "Stevie's Clock"... Especially when she says the official break up with LB was at the end of recording in Sausalito --- whatever....

I do take away how pleased she must have been when asked to do a Master Class though....
Every chance she's had, SN has said she always wanted to teach... Be it thru her music and/or her life stories... So for that alone, good for her

vivfox · #**207** 03-26-2013, 06:27 PM

I was thinking more about this interview today and decided I've been too harsh. Overall it was a good interview. I liked the way Stevie was allowed to tell her story to the camera, to the world, and Oprah's people edited it down to make a good story. We all know how much Stevie loves to gab. They probably have another two hours of film we'll never see. When she talked about her mom and her eyes teared, those were def. real tears. I might suggest that if Stevie wants to know more about her mom's life that she just ask all of her mom's friend's to share their Barbara stories.

She and Lindsey have both alluded in the past that their break-up was a gradual thing that wasn't exactly cut and dry. Lindsey once said quite bluntly that there were times when they weren't "together" but were still sleeping with each other. It's very possible the actual process of breaking up was going on all through the recording of Rumours but the final say in the matter didn't happen until the end.

Yeah, Lindsey said in 1997 - “Christine and John were breaking up. Stevie and I were breaking up, although in a more drawn-out, ambiguous way than Christine and John. With Christine and John it was over really quick. Whereas Stevie and I were more like, 'Well I don’t know…' There were times when we were sleeping together and times when we were officially something else. But there was definitely a moving apart.”

OK I watched it as well and some parts were interesting and sad. When Stevie spoke about her mom this made me really sad. With the health issues my mom herself has been in for the last 2 1/2 yrs (2 back surgeries etc) its not been easy but she is doing better now after the 2nd back surgery last Sept. So that made me tear up a lot --I guess it was more personal than even about her marriage to Kim Anderson. I did feel sad about Robin too. That was her best friend. Some of the info wasn't really new. This was the first time I'd watched one of these Oprah Master class things. I actually thought Oprah would be there and ask her questions which I think would've made it more interesting and walking around Stevie's home etc. I like those kinda interviews better. I think I did see one of Oprah with Paula Deen and it was interesting and cool!!! I guess no interview will ever be totally cool without cool stuff in it etc. I guess I appreciate it for what it was cause I guess it maybe the best we'll ever get from Stevie. It would be nice if she'd have one made up at the end of her 'career' for all us fans and show us rare items and tell us wonderful stories. This would be different than the IYD Doc. If that ever does come to pass ? Anyway , it was nice but I guess to me it could've always been better though.
