Don and Stevie confirmed - Page 2

desertangel · #16 04-05-2005, 09:21 PM

Boy, I really wish we had some INKLING of what her show will be like. Just a TINY clue would do!!

First of all, we need another box set release like Enchanted only with more unreleased demos, outtakes, rareities and B sides. Then at the shows she could do a few standards, a lot of ones she hasn't done it a long time and a few never heard before. Sound good?

I would go to one or two of those kinda shows, even if she doesn't get to be on stage for 2 hours.

Agreed on the Dirty Laundry thing.... GAG!!! (where's the puking green smiley when you need it?)

PLEASE COME TO WEST VIRGINIA......

I'm on the same page as everyone else here. I'm having mixed feelings and even if I don't go to one of these shows then the fact that I will have just seen her in Vegas certainly softens the blow. I just think the whole thing sound uncomfortable. During Don's stuff all us Stevie fans will be miserable and during Stevie's stuff all of Don's fans will be in distress! I am confident she will also be doing some solo shows after this little tour with Don. I will go to as many of those as possible.

I am also fairly confident the songs she will be doing in Vegas will be a similar setlist to the songs she will be doing on tour with Don. So, the fact that I am going to Vegas makes me not crave this Don/Stevie tour as much.

You know what? I'll just take anything I can get. I'll be wanting to stick knitting needles in my eyes 'round about the time you all resurface with your Vegas reviews. So if I need to endure a little Don to get a lot of Stevie... I'm so there. My bet is on a mini-tour, too - maybe the month of July (which I've conveniently asked for off from work). The ticket prices will indeed be outrageous, but her touring years are fast fading... I'm not about to miss this...

I love "Dirty Laundry" I remember when it came out, It is that awful "Taking You Home" song that makes me want to GAG!

That is a sad thought.

Can everyone stop saying this please! She has shown no signs of slowing down. She has been involved in touring at least every other year since the Dance so why is everyone acting like she is going to be in a nursing home soon? She is just in her mid fifties for crying out loud. And 50 is the new 40, so let's look at it that way! If she was a man no one would be saying this. No one is saying it about Lindsey and just how old are the Rolling Stones anyway? I'm just saying that being in your 50s does not automatically mean that your living on borrowed time.

Lindsey's touring years are fading fast.

The Rolling Stones' touring years are fading fast.

Get over it.

maybe it's because i know that the tix prices will be outrageous? maybe it's because i know that i'll vomit in my mouth when he mumbles 'dirty laundry'? maybe it's because i know that i'm not going to get (what i consider to be) the full stevie concert experience?

i'll go anyways, i'll go to any/all shows within reasonable driving distance...
i also know that i won't be paying hundreds upon hundreds of dollars for my seat...

I think those are all good reasons not to be psyched.

Oh, and that one might be a good reason, too.

How are her touring years fading when she is touring more then ever these days? And I am not going to get over it. There is nothing to get under. She has not shown any decline in touring, if anything it's the opposite.

Much like i'm sure Don's decision to allow Lisa Marie Presley to record and release Dirty Laundry as the first single off of her new album was. Dissapointing.

MacMan · #28 04-05-2005, 11:33 PM

How is it Don's decision to let Lisa Marie Presley release the song as a single?

I would assume (and of course, I could be wrong) that since it's his song, he probably owns the rights to it and he would have to be given compensation for allowing someone else to re-record his song much like Stevie made a lot of money from The Dixie Chicks version of Landslide. It's a cash grab...much like IMO, this tour will be.

Man, the riches they will accumulate on this tour will be mind boggling.

I'm so glad for Stevie-in-Vegas, so I can skip that Don thing, or at least see only one show.
