yes, didn't she say he had an ugly shirt or something? and later there was another comment along the lines of, 'Ken, will you stop that mindless whistling!?' lmao

I love chris.

I think one of Chris's funniest stage moments was during late in the OWTS shows Stevie would introduce Chris and explain how she came back to the band. Stevie would imitate Chris's British accent in the most horrible way and try to talk like Chris. That alone was funny enough. But a few shows Chris would answer back in an equally bad British accent imitating Stevie's horrible impression of her.

true. but i'd say her very long and mainly positive relationship with john showed that things between them, for the most part, were pretty good. both of them had addiction issues so he can't take all the blame on that one... but i do think he felt shame over his drunken mistakes... She obviously forgave them...

Wasn't it, "that's a stupid fukcing shirt you're wearing, Ken"?

I love Christine, because I too, HATE WHISTLERS. The old men that walk thru the store whistling like a bird? I'd like to head butt them into the afterlife. Seriously. STFU, old dude.

Since this thread had an analytical tone about fashion, I must say I liked that Chris gypsy look. Must be from the 70s.

But that dark haircut, and also the dress, is that really Christine? It's from a fan group post so it must be her. What year or tour is that? The 80s were unique, it had many extravaganza moments.

Yeah that's definitely her.. I'd say 76? That was more the gypsy look era. The early 80s got "heavier" sort of styles, not so much long skirts and loose tops anymore.. at least from where I lived and what I remember.

I think her hair looks darker here because her head is in the shadows and she's got the dark background behind her. Her natural hair color tended toward a dirty blonde. She lightened it often throughout the years. Sometimes she let it go darker for a while. I loved love loved her longer and fuller hair in the Tango era and the video for...was it Everywhere where they were mulling around a farm/barn kind of space? (Lindsey in his riding boots and eraser hair). Her hair was GORGEOUS then. After she rejoined and got that clip out of her hair and went lighter and fuller with extensions and stuff she was STUNNING.

She had the hippy/gypsy look of the times in the early 70s before Stevie ever came along.
