Jake- World Turning would be awfully short without the drum solo wouldn't it? Perhaps it could be interesting though...

Oh! Before, some other posts mentioned Don't Let Me Down Again, which I hadn't even thought of until I read those posts. I love that song, and i'd love to see it in the set list. As for it in the set list I made up, I thought that maybe DLMDA could be rotated with #14 I Don't Want To Know.

Voice range maybe? I'm glad she's not trying to (except for the "Don't Stop" and "World Turning" parts). I tend to think that some of Christine's songs would fit better into Lindsey's range. I would like to hear "You Make Loving Fun" sung by him, for instance. Or "Isn't It Midnight" perhaps?

I think it is refreshing to hear Stevie sing songs or parts of songs she has never sang a la CM's parts in WT and DS and I think her vocal range can totally handle it - it did the three times I saw her on this tour. Having said that - I do not think it would sit well with most fans and certainly the press ("Oh they just can't wait can they" - to tear them down) to have either La Nicks or LB sing a CM mega hit that only CM sang lead on. I think WT and DS really do not fit this like definition YMLF, OMH, IIM, Everywhere, Save Me, etc. To me, it would somehow be almost disrespectful even though I am sure that would not be the intent. Instead, I think they should out of respect to her, move on from CM (it breaks my heart to say that as I lOVE CM) and intead sing from Crying in the Night, Frozen Love, and Long Distance Winner from BN. We have not heard them sing these songs for about 30 years, so I think their voices would be refreshing in these as opposed to the rote standards.

I had to cut somethings since I listed twenty-nine songs (and wanted to do more still), and I could definitely do without Mick groping himself. Especially when he gets most of the credit for the drum solo but the other drummers are doing the harder work, it seems.

Strand, I agree that Stevie's parts on Christine's songs should be minimal. For one thing, there are enough Lindsey & Stevie songs to do, so they don't need to use many Christine songs at the expense of the others, particularly when they're not including songs by Green or Welch. For another, Gerald & I chatted after the Dallas show about how I like Stevie on World Turning - it had more bite than with Christine's sweet voice, as Stevie's voice works on this kind of gritty number - but I didn't care for Stevie as much on Don't Stop, which is too tame and sunny a song. I wish they'd drop that one.

Oh, interesting stuff here. I aready dropped don't stop in my list, darklinensuit, so I agree!

I'd like to opt for Without a leg to stand on, too. That one fits in the overal darker, maybe more cynical atmosphere of this FM.

You're totally right. Lindsays voice would probably sound much better than hers on Christine's songs.

But actually neither of them would sound as good as Christine. Man I picked a bad time to get into this band. The real setlists I've seen for this tour just don't excite me in the least.

Oh no, neither of them are Christine, for sure, and I don't think they HAVE TO perform one of her songs at all! It's all up to them I suppose. I'm just stating that, given the case, I think that those songs would sound better with Lindsey taking the lead vocal rather than with Stevie singing, but then again that's just my opinion.
