They didn't have the entire front of the front row reserved for handicapped, I believe it was only on the right side. And they didn't do wristbands either, we had a chat with security before the show and they knew we'd be rushing during HSML. After the rail got full, they wouldn't let anyone else come down - it was actually very orderly, without any pushing or shoving. I got the 2-hand-hold from Stevie AND a hug.
I believe the issue was safety as you pointed out. There were a lot of wheelchairs up front. Compound that with if someone in a wheelchair gets trampled, it's more likely that the repercussions directed at both performer and venue would be far more serious. Not that anyone getting trampled is not serious, but lawyers would be like "you didn't take extra precaution to all the handicapped".

Dani knows she is spoiled when it comes to Stevie. She is in full blown fangirl mode and there's no stopping her! Dani, if you're still acting this way in your 40s, we'll talk, okay?

I'm 60 years old and have been to many, many FM and Stevie solo shows. I've never been able to afford being close enough to the stage to shake her hand so I'm hoping she'll keep on rockin' so that I get the chance someday

That was two days ago, Dani. But I love that you're still floating around in Stevieworld, which runs on its own time.

It took me twenty years to get there (Gold Dust Tour). I could never have afforded such amazing seats when I was a young thing. Hell, I can barely afford them now.

a lot of people sneak up to the stage from afar to shake her hand. it's worked for them if security doesn't care.

i've grabbed her hand so many times during the walk. i don't like to count the times she had gloves on though

If you look at ROCKAHO1IC's videos from the unleashed wembley show, his sound quality and picture quality is much better than what I got. He uses a Canon PowerShot SD890 IS

Here is his video of silver springs for comparison

I'll check his vids out.Thanks for the camera info.I use a Nikon s550 .the video part lacks but the photos are great for what it is.The vids are not a Hidef like the ones showen on here.And yes keep them coming.
