the party pooper strikes again

tommer · #1 03-23-2005, 02:05 PM

okay, been holding it too long now

a. i wish stevie won't tour this summer. i wish she'd spend her energies in the recording studio instead. it's been four years, and i'm getting older too...uh uh...

b. i pray to god that she won't become a vegas act. sharing honours with celine and elton is not really too grand an achievement to aspire to. love, let the grand costumes rest in peace, cher didn't ask for a replacement.

i'm glad that's off my chest now. thanx for listening.

You're welcome.

dissention · #3 03-23-2005, 02:16 PM

You're quite welcome and I agree on all counts.

Kelly · #4 03-23-2005, 02:16 PM

I gotta agree with the Vegas thing. The idea of her doing some type of semi permanent residency thing there really turns my stomach. It's just so...

....whats the word? Commerical? Money driven? UGH. I hate the idea.
I would like her to record but girlfriend takes so friggin long to get a damn thing done on her albums it would mean her disappearing for two or three years. I am not sure I want that. I cannot imagine she is touring this summer without something to promote that is why I am thinking we might be getting some type of GH package or something. That would satisfy WB for awhile I guess. I was really having a hard time believing some of you guys were thinking she was writing and working away on her solo album all winter when she was in Hawaii. I doubt she has one song finished for the thing.

She may have said she was gonna start it but she says alot of things.

what can i say, call me pathetic, but believing in her artistic integrity is all i have.

oh god, i just completed listening to the rest of the interview, she's talking about DANCERS! for god's sake! what's that supposed to mean? i thought she's a freakin' rock star!

cliffdweller · #6 03-23-2005, 02:29 PM

What irks me is that she's pulling out all the stops for these Vegas shows for the VEGAS CROWD! What gives? What are the rest of us (the real fans who would appreciate these shows the most) left with?

I know, I know, sour grapes....

I'm excited for the fortunate Ledgies that get to go. I just wish she'd do something like this for a larger, more varied audience!

Edit: But no dancers please! God, we don't need dancers and bull**** for a Stevie Nicks tour do we?!!?!? LOL!

Kelly · #7 03-23-2005, 02:51 PM

I agree Tommer. I wish she had started writing right away but I just didn't buy it. Now we have a six month long tour predicted?? WTF..? Dancers?? OmGawd..lets hope she doesn't try to do some weird ass 80's Dance herself. She will just embarrass herself. I am glad i am going just to see what the heck she pulls out of her top hat.

Can you just imagine Lindsey's reaction to a show like this? The more I hear about it, the more convinced I am that he will be no where near Caesar's Palace. At least Mick will be there.

I don't think a promoter would ever front her the money for a huge travelling stage show--she wouldn't make it back in ticket sales, IMO. So, Vegas it is. I'm still debating whether or not I want to go. As time has gone on, it's now EXPENSIVE for me to get there and her tickets aren't cheap either because it's Vegas. I am trying to reason dropping $500+ for a three day excursion and I simply cannot do it.

As far as dancing, the only dancing I hope ever occurs on her stage is backsasser movements coming from Sharon and Jana and perhaps a little playful dance a la Stand Back with Carlos Rios. Other than that, let us grab a bottle, hunker down and pray for daylight.

I think when she was talking about Dancers with Jim Ladd, they were making jokes, about how the young pop stars have to worry about their dancers and stuff, and they kind of went of on it again at the end, as a joke.

So everybody stay calm.

She's bound to embarrass herself somehow because this is going to be an extravagant Vegas show; a little bitty stage show a la everything she's done in the past will not fly in Vegas. I'm worried, but I'm also optimistic at the chance of hearing some old songs. I just hope that she doesn't truly embarrass herself by attempting to do a big, theatrical, high-energy show when she simply cannot do it these days.

Yeah, you all might want to relisten to that section. Stevie is making fun of people who use dancers not suggesting that she is going to use them herself.

And.....JAZZ HANDS......

If she's happy this way, for me it's okay. After thirty five years in the showbusiness she has deserved the right to make concerts when, where and how she wants, I think.

Exactly. I simply can't foresee anyone fronting the cash for her to do a travelling stage show like Midler's "Kiss My Brass". Talk about extravagant, she had a bloody orchestra with her on top of everything else.

But that's because she makes a helluva lot of money when she tours and Stevie, while a little successful, doesn't. This will be a Vegas only deal, IMO.

Oh my gosh, I actually had a dream about her show, the night before last, and it was like that.

I mean, bad and embarrassing in some ways. It seemed really real, too.
I was horrified, I hope she doesn't embarrass herself (at least not more than very minimally) like that, either.
