If Chris Nicks is doing it, twenty bucks says the cover has the Lucky Charms rainbow on it.

... with orange crescent moons, red roses, silver spoons, gold shawls, and now with purple Frankenboks!

Why spend the $25 on a tourbook? You've already seen it all. Here is a rundown:

-Lots of tiny Polaroid shots of Stevie's dogs... in collage.
-Lots of tiny Polaroid shots of Karen and Stevie's other sycophants...in collage.
-Lots of tiny Polaroid shots of fat crew members and unflattering candid shots of the band...in collage.
-A centerfold containing a grainy wide-angle shot of the Caesars Las Vegas stage.
-Some fragmented reprints of published "rave reviews" ...in collage.
-Lots of stock graphics and borders.
-Oh, and a couple of TISL-era pictures of Stevie... in collage.

However, I definitely wants me a tourbook if it has the Lucky Charms cover! Just in time for gay pride month!

You know me, the eternal optimist.

I still want one, to complete the collection you know. Even though the TISL one was the worst one yet, I live in hope that this one will at least (unlike the TISL tour book) have a few nice pics of Stevie. John Kinney taking the pics improves the chances of that happening, unless, as HejiraNYC said, Chris decides to put them in collage

Yeah and those Vegas t-shirts were so bad! I can't believe anyone would buy one. They were like standard "insert performer's face here" shirts for Caesars. BEH!!!

Yeah, I know they weren't that great, but I bought a few. Someone told me that the back looked like a Tombstone. I guess I figured since it wasnt likely that I would have the money to go to a summer show after Vegas, that's whY I decided to buy one

[krrrby]

Well then, if it's going to be at the first show, I'm going to get me one

I have got my California connection who is going to see her pick one up for me! As I had done this for him when Say You Will tour books weren't available around this first leg of the tour.

My favorite thing about the SYW tourbook is the photo of SnL sitting on the floor with the guitar....I like the candid moments best.


So...Chris is putting together the tourbook.....egads.
Sorry but I am not a fan of his artwork. Evah.
(I do like the Enchanted three disc book but that is it)

The Vegas shirts?? Good Grief. My four year old could do better.

Well, I saw a photographer at Boston for SYW and one of his shots in the tourbook was exactly the same as mine, taken a millisecond before or after. So they did use a professional but I thought his shots sucked. Instead of using a long lense he should have just gotten really close. The lense elongates the face and Stevie's facial proportions are off in those pics. Not to mention they are fuzzy, oh I could go on. John will do a much better job. He had his camera in Mansfield.
