The entire second verse was apparently forgotten. But upon watching the video a second time, I think it was intentional, to a point. She seemed to be in another dimension during that verse, singing softer than normal and facing towards Dave the entire time. I think there may have been some ad libs in there as well. Who knows for sure but it didn't seem like she just messed up the lyrics...her entire delivery was changed. I think she was feeling something.... or perhaps smoking something

Either way, it was different and far from the Fleetwood Mac script. GDW has become, in my opinion, quite boring on the current tour. This was a nice change of pace, however flawed it may have been.

She evidently did last night's show too.

I may have spoken too soon. That's not confirmed.

Found a better/closer video. Both songs, with Stevie and Dave banter in between.

I know everyone has an opinion, but i think that blogger was way off. She sounds great! I think the adlibbing started as a mistake, but then she just went with it.

Haim are my second favorite band (first is Fleetwood Mac, obviously) so I was ecstatic when I heard this... and mad that I didn't go.

Stevie sounded great, and I actually find the mess up endearing. Finally something that wasn't rehearsed to death.

I'm not a fan of the FF but I thought the performance was fantastic.

Shocking from me LOL.....

I love Haim.They are more my speed for music.

I love the stage cat walk .Stevie should put it in her stage setup.Probably EO17 will be extended to an half hour by the time she gets done with her handshakes.

I did not read the fine print in this thread .Was this special get together.Was it the last or first FF concert in their tour or it was a benefit.

I'm glad that she is having fun on her vacation before the last leg of the FM tour down under..

Thanks Nicole for doing your research homework and posting them.

WOWWWWWWWWWW!!! What an incredible 15 minutes that was. That is a way better way to end gold dust wan then the last 3 minutes of the song on the past few tours. I LOVE the way fleetwood Mac does it all the way up to and including the long jam. But once that over and Stevie's done her dance, hey should it repeat the chorus and cut out the 4 minutes of do it shake it break me **** it do it again blah blah

I think she looked really excited to be singing with a sexy man who actually took notice of her.......

I can't believe she took out the mike though, lol!

she did an interview saying that in the beginning, she tried taking the mic off , but LB mocked her by asking "what is this, Vegas?" or something similar.

I will be the first to say I think Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters are thoroughly "meh," but what he brings out of Stevie is remarkable. He seems to be the only person who can make 21st century Stevie feel comfortable in her own skin. Comfortable enough to let her guard down, try new things, get loose, and have some fun. Forget Dave Stewart- Grohl is who Stevie needs to consult with on a new FM album.

I agree , AND it would connect the band with Gen. X... the Boomers love FM, the Millenials seem to be embracing Stevie, it was my generation that sort of thought FM passe'. I loved them because my siblings were significantly older and introduced me to the music of FM and Stevie. I think DG producing would bridge the gap

...but she just wobbles like a 95 year old woman in those heels. It's like she brings them out on special occasions because they are apart of her "trademark" look, but she's always so unsure of herself in them. Walks too slow. Appears so stiff.

When she's in her Reeboks and other shoes (like on this past tour), she is so confident. She's still careful but the stride in her walk and her dance moves are so smooth and natural and no so calculated.

The platform boots have got to go! It's time!

the song is sort of ominous. it would have looked stupid if she had strutted down the catwalk like a runway model. the slow movement seemed appropriate. She didn't look impaired by the boots

Intentional or not, interpretive or not, her gait was a bit doddering at times.

Im just so happy and grateful that Stevie my all time favorite since 77 is still rocking the stage in her mid 60's, and guys like the foo fighter, Haim etc think she is pretty wonderful as well..
