Christine looked absolutely stunning. She's aging in reverse. Now if we can get her to sing and play keyboards...errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr her job that people are paying to see... we'll be fine.

I'm explaining why she was wearing black.

Her last facial work leaves something to be desired. She looks like a cream cheese filled latex glove.


So Christine does look wonderful. But if her voice is shot, why isn't she at least playing? Arthritis is my only guess. Unless it's memory/stage fright(of forgetting the parts) issue.

I'm not buying any of this. I think it's just lazy. Artistically lazy. Thank God she wrote songs when she came back or I would fire her in my head.

Still, kudos on those sparkling eyes, and her updated outfit.

Just watched both performances. Was very sad to watch but tried to keep an open mind.

Overall, they sound "generic" to me.

The energy that Lindsey brought is gone. The buildup and guitar solo at the end of "The Chain", as an example; you can tell Lindsey loves that part and gets into it every show. This iteration of the band just feels "meh". Like, the little piano roll coming into the end... really? Felt like a jam band, not this unique and iconic band that we've all grown to love.

Stevie has a massive smile on her face during that performance. It's clear this is what she wanted and is enjoying it; good for her. Both her and Christine look good.

Lindsey's uniqueness is missing in every possible way - his stage persona - his energy - his production - his guitar playing - his "sound" --- all balanced out what this band otherwise has as a generic rock 'n roll sound. And that's the Achilles heel of LB solo and FM without him, they just don't balance each other out at this level without one another.

I'm looking forward to seeing LB on his solo tour next month!

It's like: Careful what you wish for.

Her enjoyment was far more important than the band actually having a quality sound, so no wonder she's smiling. As far as she's concerned, "Mission Accomplished." The band could be in the crapper but she can still dance around the apartment as long as Lindsey's not there.
