Chula Vista

Just a quick review before I go to bed... I'm happy to say that this was not the same Stevie I saw in Red Rocks the other night. Her vocals were top notch. She was in great spirits and seemed almost giddy at times.

Random notes:
-She talked about hearing Circle Dance off Bonnie Raitt's 1994 album and deciding, even before she knew she was going to tour this summer, that she would do it live.
-Gold Dust Woman ending: the "baby baby baby"s are back. Tonight she added "you can't save me now, you can't free me now, you can't do it, you can't do it..." etc etc.
-FFG lyric change: "the applause from it all was so disarming"
-She dedicated HAEWAFY to the men coming home from Iraq and reminded those of us who live near cities that have VA hospitals to please go visit them because they need us.
-She was very cute during the band intros, kept laughing and said she didn't know why. When she introduced Brett he covered his face with his guitar and she said "he gets scared everytime I do this now" and cracked herself up.
-Landslide was dedicated to Vanessa Carlton and her parents, who were in the audience tonight.
-Rock & Roll was on fire!! She was having SUCH a great time with this song.
-Best rendition of Edge I've heard in awhile. I think I broke my toe during it, though. We got pushed into the monitors during the stage walk and Stevie took my hand and said "Oh no, careful!" The one in front of us tipped over and then rocked back, landing on my & Lindsay's foot. Oww.
-Beauty & the Beast was great tonight. If Vegas was a 10, this was a solid 8.

Real strict on cameras tonight. As soon as I took mine out security told me to put it away or leave, so no pictures. We'll see how it goes in Anaheim. Lindsay - thanks for everything, see you in L.A.!

Sounds like you had a great time other then the falling monitor. Ouch, that must of really hurt. Is your foot OK?

I wonder why the strict camera policy? That is really odd.

Thanks, Tiff! It sounds like this was one of the best of Stevie this tour. *Ahem*, LINDSAY!!! Where are you? Post, post, post!!! I'll be looking for you later today.

Thank you for the review, Tiff! Glad you had a good time and sorry about your toe!

I didn't even know you were going to another show so soon after Red Rocks! Thanks for the review--hope your toe is feeling better,

I'm glad you had a good time Tiff! I'm really happy to hear Stevie sounded better than she did at Red Rocks since I'm seeing her this week. And I hope your toe is doing OK. I know you still have a bunch more shows to see this week.

Glittermoondust · #10 07-24-2005, 11:18 AM

Cool! Thanks for the quick review--I always love reading these

Hope the toe is feeling better--I broke my toe eons ago but I remember it hurt like h*ll!! Couldn't hardly get a shoe on my foot

It was miserable for a few days I remember!! Sorry about the camera thing too--the security nazis strike again!! Hey I think I remembered from some earlier posts that Raul is now gone?? Is that true?? He hates me!! LOL!! He gives me the evil eye every show I see him at

I wish I could catch another show that he isn't at!! ha ha I know that's his job but it is just so uncomfortable to have someone glaring at ya from the side stage

Makes me feel like I'm the only person to ever try to get a photo--geesh!

jkmaletic · #11 07-24-2005, 11:20 AM

I concur with Tiffany's comment on the photo-taking. However I did get some pictures, but they are on analog so I'm not sure if they turned out. One of them I took with a flash (oops!) and Stevie looked down in my direction after it went off.

So I took the rest without flash, so I'm not sure how those will work. We'll see I guess. I will shoot some tonight in Anaheim as well.

Great review, Tiff! You sounded so excited.

I'm so glad she was on.

Your poor toe, though - hope it feels better soon. At least, you have something to remember the show by - and a great story: "hey I broke my toe once. How? Stevie Nicks' monitor fell on it.... " If you have to have a broken toe... not a bad way to get it. (I'm a silver lining kind of girl, can ya tell?)

Great review Tiff! Thanks! I usually go to the shows at Coors since San Diego is where I grew up but I am working on a project in Phoenix and couldn't get away. How was the crowd? It's a great venue but can appear empty if it's not very full. Glad you had a great time, sorry about your toe and the pics. Your pics from Chula Vista during the SYW tour are still some of my favorites.

AliceLover · #14 07-24-2005, 12:17 PM

Tiff...

Glad you had a great time once again LOL!

Was this the show at the Shoreline Amplitheater (Mountainview?)? If so it just got a terrible review.

I know! Where is she? She's normally on AIM spazzing out to me! LOL

Tiff, I'm glad you had a great time! Are you going to all the Cali shows?
