However someone posted that in February 1977 the band went into Rumours tour rehearsals and Lindsey was trying to teach Stevie the acoustic parts to perform live. However she could not cut it and the band was forced to hire Ray Lindsey. I suppose Ray would be forever grateful for Stevie not able to do the job. They actually posted the audio of Chris talking, Lindsey playing, etc. Stevie jokes that her debut is not debuting
Sort of surprising since she plays piano fairly well

Hope this link works

Stevie COULD play the piano fairly well if she actually prioritized it. Her playing isn't totally awful (her piano demo of Sisters is better than many others and shows her potential). I do think she tried to play better in the beginning what with her demos having to be presented to the band up against Christine's playing. But then she got famous and had all sorts of people to help her and she just got less and less motivated to play anything more than her two-notes with two fingers. Sad really. I think she was similar with guitar.

But the idea she was EVER capable of playing live onstage (no discipline and no consistency) and especially on one of LINDSEY'S songs is beyond laughable.
