I agree. I love this

As I recall she knocked the entire mic stand over that night.

I freaking LOVE her Street Angel performances! It's like she came out breathing fire after spending nearly a decade on Klonopin, and like she felt she had to make it up to her fans for gaining weight, and putting out what she felt like was a subpar album. I still kick myself for not going to see that tour (I saw the Time lineup of FM instead

). That tour was one last glimpse of that Rock A Little and pre-Betty Ford passion. Oh well, at least we have some clips on youtube

.

I also didn't much care for the daddy dedication at the beginning...

I think she looks like Stevie at a certain time in her life...

The voice isn't TOO bad...I mean, it's a good voice but it isn't too bad in terms of strictly a Stevie impersonator...I've seen others whose voices are nowhere near as close in terms of the Stevie sound.

Uh, and one FM cover band that was around my local area, *cough* the "Stevie" in it had this weird bulging eye. LMAO. I couldn't go and see their show. I just couldn't.

She actually did that at the 3/5 Chicago show this year during I believe Stand Back. She was swinging her big red cape and it knocked the mic out of the clip. the funny part is Stevie was laughing and looking around like "roadies...are you going to fix this **** or what???" She eventually got the mic back in the clip herself but it was very funny to watch. Alicia was up front so she probably got a better view.

No, I don't think she was breathing fire in 1994. People go overboard with their descriptions; their memories are spotty or they're in a revisionist, adulatory mood.

In 1994 on tour, the big difference was that Stevie had vibrato in her singing once again, & she was able to hit & maintain pitch -- quite well, actually (so that the various a cappella bits worked properly). But she wasn't Rock a Littling. She was still big & lumbering. It's just that she could sing clearly & tonefully, so it was pleasurable hearing her again. She wasn't dragging her pitch south in that trumpetlike fashion that she had in 1989, 1990, 1991.

I think this is the best new verb I've seen since 'Googling'.

OH MY GOD!!! When she said "This is for you daddy" she really sounds like Stevie BUT I totally agree with you that she shouldn't have said that...because it's very personal for Stevie...but however, this impersonator is really good! The voice I agree isn't that great but she really looks like Stevie most of the time, particularly from a distance

Although the album wasn't her best, the tour was fantastic. I prefer the earlier version of Edge before she slowed it down like this. And "No Spoken Word" and "Talk To Me" on SA were fantastic! Some of her best!

"Nearly Nicks" is great and I'm so proud of her. She's a friend of mine.

Well, that's the year she was dating a dragon. So, you could be wrong. Michele

Yeah I think there's a fine line between having fun imitating and becoming too eerily similar that it puts people off. I think she does resemble an older Stevie now. I do not think with all the work in the world that she could ever have Stevie's voice. It's just not there and that's something one cannot change about themself. I give her props for at least trying and singing her own songs but I think she'd do better just lip synching and leave it at that. She does look the most like Stevie that I've seen out of everyone and I'll like her more if her hair was all hers. Stuff like that just gains extra points with me.

Hi Tim!

Not only did I have a good view...I photographed Stevie putting the mic back on the stand and the girl that finally came to her rescue!!! What a surprise...me getting pictures, huh?

I'm trying to get word out to interested FM fans in central Mass. We have several Fleetwood Mac Tribute shows coming up and would love to see you there.

JazmenFlowers · #30 12-04-2009, 10:00 PM

good for her! she looks great. she doesn't sound exactly like Stevie, but no one does or ever will. I'm sure she's a great fan doing what the rest of us do...enjoying the music and imagery that Stevie has given us. kudos to her. I'd love to see her live!

I believe I've seen picture of her and it's eerie how much she resembles Stevie. both are gorgeous women.
