I'm listening to Petty's version right now - I can't WAIT to hear Stevie do it!!!

Everybody's covered this song. Stevie's version should be interesting.

Yes, we really do care (We're kind of sick that way ). Actually, we'd prefer cargo pants over jeans....but he probably wore black slacks or his "old man pants" as we lovingly refer to them.

Okay, I'm gonna guess....black button down shirt, and jeans!

We have names for them:

Old Man Pants
Yoga Pants
and then there are the Cargo pants

He always wears the same footwear, so unlike y'all we don't need to discuss that.

We're also wondering if he had stubble.

It's fun to watch y'alls reactions to the shows....it's like doing homework for when we see the show in Jones Beach

"yoga pants"
You've made my day, dear.

HOWEVER.

Doing this cover instead of Landslide, which would have been the most well-received song of the night, was very risky. For that, and the damn studded pants, I'm loving Stevie extra special tonight.

Yup. I'm proud of her.

I should add that George has been a fan since 1977, and has seen Stevie dozens of times on, I believe, every tour from 1982 forward.
He told me "everyone always says this, but she really did sound terrific and looked so beautiful and sexy." He also said that she was in "a fantastic mood," was being "very playful," and did a little "hula dance" during "Outside The Rain."

Before she left the stage after singing during Don's set, Don said she was going backstage to "try on clothes"... during which time, Stevie modelled her pants for the audience.

George also felt her and Don's chemistry was far more exciting than her and Lindsey's on the 'SYW' tour, and that she was "energized," "animated" and seemed very happy to be there.

Yeah, thanks for the info... So was this a revolving stage like they were reported to have... did they share bands what's the deal with all that stuff.

so sad, so beautiful. so poignant. so perfect.

And now I'm thinking - "why don't I have Bonnie Raitt albums?" seriously, this song is so heartbreakingly beautiful. Hmmm, I wonder what Stevie did on the high "ooohoooooooooohoooo"?

diamondsnake · #**264** 06-03-2005, 11:00 PM

Yippppeeeee!!!! No Landslide!!!!

Do you live in California? They're loose fitting, kinda, comfey pants, that tend to sway a bit, tend to be a bit loose. Often they are beigey tan...could be made of natural fibers....etc.

thepoetinmyhear · #**266** 06-03-2005, 11:02 PM

All right, where are y'all finding the circle dance song?

She introduced Circle Dance as one of her favorite Bonnie Raitt songs. There was handshaking, and the venue was fuller than expected.

Ironically, the album that has Circle Dance on it also has a song called...Steal Your Heart Away.

Thanks for the update on Don's wardrobe everyone. We really appreciate it.

Yoga pants are knit and very loose....and very unflattering and ugly.

Old Man Pants are like Chinos, but without a belt.

Don always wears work-type boots like Dr. Martens or Redwings. He LOVES his boots.
