Have Fun!!!!

Have some setlist tidbits that I believe to be genuine....

"Second Hand News" is opening the show (with "The Chain" as the second song), and "Without You" and "Sad Angel" are both in the setlist. "Sisters" is there too.

I remember doing the "bow-bow-bow" part of SHN with Stevie in 09. She was smiling at us.

Don't worry. They can't stop cell phones. There will be photos.

Monday Morning is a better opener. Second Hand News would be better in the home stretch

[sanders8323]

Being that Second Hand News opens Rumours, and the band's so wrapped up in the 35th anniversary of the album, it makes perfect sense that they would open with that song.

I can live without any photos, but I want to hear the songs on youtube.

No cameras?
I wonder if it'll be like that for every date? The tickets I have for Prudential Center don't say no cameras on them.

To top things off, I just realized that this summer will mark 10 years of fandom for me!

[Musicman408]

Question. THe show I was planning on attending later this summer isn't showing any more Premium Seats. Does that mean it's selling really well???

here is a vid i took of SOTM. the sound isn't great because i was right under her mic and directly next to a speaker that was pumping out ridiculous amounts of lindsey's guitar and lori's backup.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3ZYIGeRl7A



a couple of things i noticed-the ending of SOTM, her tempo was off. she also said it hadn't been played since 1979, to which i had to correct her. she probably didn't hear me, though, so the next venue will get the same spiel lol

stevie messed up a word or two on say goodbye but it went unnoticed because she just picked up like it never happened.

during a guitar part on GDW, stevie turned her back to the audience (i love when she does that). i'm not sure if she actually SAID something, or if she did something or what, but john mouthed "wow" to her. also, she trotted off to get her hat for GYOW. when she left the stage, john kinda put his finger up in the air, and made a circling motion to indicate "there she goes again" they shouldn't really be surprised by her leaving the stage at this point.

the beginning was terrible from my vantage point. SHN, the chain, dreams and rhiannon were all basically stevie-less with random moments of lori soaring through the speakers.

someone said she didn't dedicate landslide to anyone, but i was pretty sure she dedicated to columbus. she also said "i wrote this song in 1973, it's called landslide. take it in" wtf.

oh, during silver springs, it was changed from "and did you say that she loves you?" to "and did you say that you love her?"

sara was very intense. during the "i think i had met my match" and "i stayed home at night, all the time, i'd go anywhere, anywhere, ask me and i will be there" they were singing to each other pretty intently. i'm not saying this as a shipper (although i am LOL) but i just found it interesting because she's never really admitted that song was about him, but there they were.

something else that you're not able to see on the video of without you (i videoed it, but somehow lost it as i was frantically removing stuff from my phone to get more pics/vids) but when they sing "if i never knew, the likes of you, where would i be?" stevie kinda brings her hands up and drops them like a shrug, and smiles a huge smile. that song was the highlight of the night for me. the only time i've bawled listening to a damn fleetwood mac song

Sweet. And I don't want to out myself, but, um, I did the Stephenie Meyer thing hard, just not as hard as Stevie.

When Stevie goes to Lindsey's mic and he moves away and she sings and then turns back to him, he moves too. They kind of float in tandem like wheels on a Lazy Susan. It reminded me of Bella's mother Renee telling Bella that: "The way you move -- you orient yourself around him without even thinking about it. When he moves, even a little bit, you adjust your position at the same time. Like magnets . . . or gravity. You're like a . . . satellite or something. I've never seen anything like it."

That's what Stevie and Lindsey make me feel sometimes, the gravity between them and the end of Sara brought it home. Both of them very aware that we fans made the Sara hug from last tour iconic, they didn't hug this time (although they didn't initially hug for Unleashed either), but her hand on his shoulder was very powerful and when she walks away he swerves too, crouching around his guitar. It really is like a slightly wrenching goodbye between them.

Very artful.
