Its a very messy performance but I love it. Everyone sort of stops playing at 8:00 and Mick has to try and get everyone back on track.

People forget just HOW MANY shows she slurred and bungled her way through over YEARS starting from the Rumours tour....she was a mess. Personally I don't really respect that... I mean yes there are some funny moments, but it just is a lack of respect for the audience who paid money to see a performance from someone who actually wants to be there and not someone who'd rather be backstage partying with their pals. She finally got over it after decades of it and several trips to rehab.....and old age......

This is spot on. I'm a theater actor, and won't drink during a production. Not even on my off days. Remembering lines is important, remember lyrics is IMPORTANT, and emoting the writer's script is your job!!

You get money to do your job. I do understand the rock and roll life and being f*** up. But, you have to know your limits and what chemicals you can do, and what's diminishing your tool box. Let alone diminishing your life.

Some performers can handle it, others, not so much.

Thankyou for being a true professional, who respects their craft, their audience and above all yourself!

The version of Rhiannon they did that night is my hands down absolute favourite. Nothing comes close.
