it's a wake up , she needs to step it up or she could be opening for some 20 something lip syncer,.. or touring with REO Speedwagon , and STYX I see this as a good thing and hopefully she will leave this tour and go into her Headlining tour with a new appreciation and understanding of her career you can't get by on calling it in, and cover songs don't always cut it and you can be over rehearsed, it makes her look bored ,.. she need to be a little "Foot Loose and Fancy Free"

This is from that Boston Globe article. Yeah, he really doesn't have to move behind her like that.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the artist who hasn't resorted to doing standards be the headliner of a tour? Just sayin'...

He draw a bigger crowd , the last time I saw him he was still doing 3 hour shows no opening act 1,5 hour 2o minute break and another 1.5 hour .. she's been doing her sorry ,,lifeless oldies act in small arenas and casinos with no new music in 10 years , people are not interested ..not everyone is a super obsessed fan , Rod been doing this for a while and his way he knows what his audience want and fully delivers ....Iam really hoping she gets it now .

When actually the opposite is true. It was ballsy for Stevie to want to shake and jiggle with Rod on Young Turks & Passion. Her intent no doubt, was wanting to showcase something more spontaneous, rockin', uptempo and exciting. However the execution leaves something to be desired and looks awkward. It's probably more fun and exciting to watch in the moment, than from these YouTube clips. But I believe in this instance, Stevie should've stuck to her strong suit and done a duet/harmony on First Cut Is The Deepest, Reason To Believe or Leather & Lace.

I think the reason she hasnt duetted with him on her songs is because his people dont want Rod singing during Stevies (the openers) set and her people dont want to put stevie nicks songs in his set.

That does make sense.

That's true to a point - BUT she & Don Henley sang a few of eachother's songs in the other's set during the Two Voices Tour & neither fan base seemed upset about it. It was pretty cool actually. I honestly don't know why they're not doing a duet. L&L seems like a no-brainer to me.

That's different because they have a history and are friends.

Is "You Wear It Well" in Rod's set this outing?

That's a perfect song for Stevie to join him on.

Rod's lack of rehearsal, and Stevie's lack of confidence without one (or 20).

It's almost painful to watch Stevie duet w/Rod! She looks sooo uncomfortable!
