Yes it was so bad. I actually felt sorry for Stevie. I could sense Rod's arrogance and it was sad how they had to find clever ways for them to appear on stage together. Correction: On Rod's stage. She was an opening act and came out a few nights to sing with Rod. They did Leather and Lace a few times and Rod looked like he never even practiced with Stevie. His singing was reduced to reading every word off the monitor.
Its all about $$$$$ money. The next few years Stevie was packing arenas. She did not need to do that just like she does not need to open for Billy Joel. She's on stage during the daylight with people fumbling around trying to find their seats. She does not need to sell out for such gigs.
But then again I say all the time. These concerts are not for us hardcore fans. They are for the bored masses who want to attend concerts in the summer.
