2nd Atlantic City show review - 7/1/05

LiquidBlue5000 · #1 07-02-2005, 04:01 AM

I don't usually like to write long reviews, but i had to write a little something about tonight... I just got back from the 2nd Atlantic City show and i have to say it was even better than thursday night's show... Stevie had a little more bounce in her step tonight and the crowd was loving it... in fact, this was probably the best Stevie Nicks audience i have ever seen... during the encore, everyone started chanting "Stevie, Stevie, Stevie"... She emerged from the shadows and busted out "Rock N Roll"... she was on fire tonight and so was everyone else there...

"Sorcerer" continues to be a highlight for me... she's just been pouring a lot of herself into her performances of that song lately.. Also, i gotta say it, "Landslide" was also a highlight... the images in the background make seeing this song live a completely different experience... i got goosebumps seeing pictures of baby Stevie on the screen as she sang the words "i'm getting older too".. it just fit really well..

Circle Dance and Beauty And The Beast were also quite stellar tonight... but "Rock N Roll" was definately the performance of the night.. she belted it out while dancing and shaking her legs back and forth while wearing her tight black studded pants...10 years ago, i never ever thought i would see Stevie perform a song like this in this way... it's so cool to see her doing something different and to see her enjoying herself again...

ok, well, off to Bristow..

Oh gawd. Baby pics of Stevie during Landslide? I would be crying buckets. Ok, so she's feeling better?

Awesome. Her version of Rock and Roll is unbelievable. I think even Plant and Page would be proud. Thanks for putting that up, btw.

From everything I've read, it's like Stevie from 20 years ago is back. I hope I get to go later this month, but my mom wants to take me to see my dad (he's sick) so I'm not sure where I'll be. Thank gawd for this place because if I don't get to go, at least I got Vegas and I get to feel like I'm seeing her again and again thanks to your reviews. Thank you!

How tacky.
I was just going to toss Mardi Gras beads at her if the dress complies. But you can help.

Glad you made it home safely and enjoyed the second show. Did you hit much bad weather on your way down to AC? I was truly going to go until it began monsooning as I was leaving work.

Please tell me more about this leg-shaking thing everyone's mentioned. Is it like Elvis?

I think it was sort of like a shake-shimmy thing not unlike something Tina Turner would have done. I don't think we were ready for this jelly!
