Your either in for 60 + shows or your not...
yeah. poor little millionaire rock stars.

actually i don't remember Lindsey ever saying touring is such hard work. he said it's hard because of the band politics, but not actual concerts. he usually says how hard he works in the studio compared to other band members. he and Mick do look like they work harder on the stage than other band members, but i don't remember them complaining about it being hard work.

now if i was SN, hard work would mostly be standing / walking around in those high heels... so i would ditch them and have fun instead of constantly having to watch when i might fall and break something.

Yeah, I don't think he's said it's hard at all, not the stage work, only the behind the scenes antics. Also, the boredom when they are not on stage that makes good people do bad things .

Now, there might lie a problem! She did it with (lots of) alcohol in the past. How will it be without liquor?

lol yeah. also, during OMS tour he said when someone asked him whether that's harder on him because he's up there alone the whole time, he said that tour was REALLY easy on him because the set was so short. (hello! lindsey? longer OMS set next time please, make it at least a bit hard on yourself!!)

This time, he could do it for Christine, because the world was calling her away.

Also, he could throw in a couple of lines about bridges. I learned they have not burned.

I have no idea. Probably a little less interesting, if that's possible.

No, you're right. She wasn't and someone said she was afraid she might start again.

She wasn't onstage for it. But yeah, she probably got the gist.
