The wallpaper on my home computer is a pic of me kissing Butch on the cheek.

I'm talking REALLY tiny venues, way smaller than a high school auditorium. Places that only hold about 200-250. Looks like the Beachland has a ballroom and a tavern side - they both have live music. I hope Butch is on the Tavern side. Tix go on sale this Friday. I've only heard "Summer of 1989" so far - waiting 'til I get the whole enchilada. I pre-ordered package #3, with the vinyl, t-shirt and playing cards.

I don't think anyone knows what's going on, just speculation. I'm counting on the show on Wednesday.

Yes, and so was I. Actually the latest I saw was 90% of the seats sold out.

Ah I see... we all worry about her and her pushing herself I'm sure. Hope she's ok and feels better soon and takes care of herself.

I know! I wish she would pace herself more if that would help.

No not really. Traveling and the road and shows nightly would get to a 20 year old after long. So I can imagine what she must feel like at her age. She's forever our timeless Stevie, but she's not 27 anymore and can't take on tours like that today. She has to think of herself and take care of herself.

I just don't want the business to overrun her.

Actually travelling now-a-days on tour at her level is probably pretty easy, it's not like us everyday people who have to do all the leg work for travel ourselves... All that is done for her. She flies private, she has a driver in every city to get her where she needs to be, a tour manager to watch over the schedule and keep things rolling who likely makes sure people are where they are supposed to be for her. She doesn't do her own schlepping of luggage or checking into hotels, that's all done for her... All the personal scheduling stuff is done by her assistant for the most part.

What would be taxing and stressful is that time before a show when she says she has a little stage fright and nervousness that goes away once she's on stage.. That part, even though it's nervousness, is really stress on the system. Then the show. 2 hours on stage giving it her all... She probably boards her plane right after the show for the next city and unwinds... That part would be the taxing part the constant up and down of adrenaline... The travel part would be a piece of cake... Time zones and the not being in one place long enough to really relax would get to you too.

Exactly. And, I have friends her age who have a lot more trouble sleeping. So, that could really be a problem for her and add to the strain on her physically and cause her to get more run down.

re: beachland, since the numbers band is playing that night, i would guess he is on the ballroom side. it's still an intimate setting, though. and if you do go, check out the end of the numbers band set -- they are local legends.

A few hours in Red Rocks and I felt like *I* was pushing 63. Dancing (swaying, really) in FLATS and walking around the venue gave me the most painful muscle pains in my calves for days. Just sayin'.

There was one recent extensive tour where she made it the whole tour without a single cancellation or postponment. I'm obviously not counting the 2010 "Not a Tour" tour since it was just six shows. I want to say her whole 2005 Two Voices/Gold Dust Tours went off without any cancellations. And I think the 2007 Crystal Visions tour was the same. Correct me if I'm wrong if anyone was personally effected by a cancelled show or just remembers. I also can't remember the SYW tour getting cancelled at any point. And if thats true thats impressive since that was 135 shows.

TISL was probably the worst health related Stevie tour. Even shows she didnt cancell, it was so obvious she was singing sick. Unleashed had many cancelled shows too, but I'm thinking 2003-2008 was a rare 5 year healthy period for Stevie.
