Why is Stevie so absent on stage?

[Jondalar]

Just just trying to make it through. This tour has been too long.

Just have to chime in here. I guess I've been ridiculously lucky in my interactions/meetings or she is more animated than people are saying.

I suspect she is just bored, exhausted and done with this monster tour. I second everyone's comments about her vision/joint problems and how she is different solo.

I can see why people get the impression she's checked out - cause I kind of think she has. When she shows up emotionally or has a few days off in between shows she is so awesome.

But she is SUCH a gracious lady and a sweet person to boot - just tired I think.

P.S. If anyone gets a chance to go to a signing. GO. We flew to LA from Vancouver for 1 night to make it to the last one. WORTH IT!

P.P.S Let's give her a break. We're so lucky they are all out there still rocking

Agreed. Second date in Amsterdam she was tired and bored I think lol.

After a few day break in Antwerp she was playful and awesome. :3 Even though the concert was cut short.

Saw Stevie & The Mac in Dublin this year, it was the first concert on June 20th. The show was beyond fantastic, it was my first time so you can only imagine how excited I was but yes Stevie did seem like the lights were on but no one was home. I do wish she was more lively but hey, she's 67 so I can't really complain.
Btw, new here so I thought I'd give my opinion on the matter.

Carmel, Ireland.

"Fleetwood Mac" Stevie tends to be a bit more professional, if you will, and hold back a bit so as not to steal (or be perceived as trying to steal) attention from the others on the stage.

***This answer exactly****

Stevie will accept stuff solo but is hesitant to do so with Fleetwood Mac today. She has no "edge walk" and tones it down to make sure she is not the "star" of the group. I admire her for doing that.
