Excellent review Buddy... Thanks. I loved the way you described the fans during the Edge walk... That is so cool that people ended up at the stage even with the tight security.... There's no stopping the sea of love!!

And thanks for the great review! These write-ups have gotten me from planning to skip this tour to saving my pennies for a couple west coast shows.

A couple of more tidbits (sorry I keep thinking of these details and need to share). Stevie was playful during this show. At one point she was at her mike, the lights went on quickly and off again and she said "oh we're in the dark, that's ok, I can sing in the dark and chuckled". At the end of the show Stevie, Henley and her band took their bow in a long row,arm in arm. It reminded me of a bow after a broadway show until they started playing footsie. Stevie started it with those diamond studded rebocks! I saw this happen during the Say You Will concerts too.

Thumbs up

Great review. Exactly how I felt about the show, especially this part . . . "Henley's band was EXCELLENT, very tight. You can tell he must be a perfectionist! Too bad he didn't introduce them. He seems kind of stiff, not the kind of guy you would want to bring to a party, the exact opposite of Stevie!
Stevie came out for Hotel California and thunder struck...the place went wild!!!"

I didn't notice any chemistry b/t Don & Stevie, but she had chemistry with her band & the audience. Philly being the first show, we didn't know what to expect, but all of the sudden the crowd when crazy when Don was singing Hotel California & my husband said, "What's going on?" & I said that Stevie came out.

And I was kind of shocked seeing Stevie hugging all over Don since the only one that I'd seen her hugging live & on tape was Lindsey. She was very playful, very flirty with Don, & I guess he just didn't get it, or wasn't interested in playing back. At least Lindsey does play back & they do have a certain chemistry on stage. This is just my observation.

She was FULL of energy yet again tonight... Stand Back was a big highlight.. she spun a million times, did the high kick again, and was really rocking out.. Rhiannon, Enchanted, and Edge Of Seventeen really stood out as well...during Edge, she hunched down with her knees and belted out the scream while pulling down her mic stand... it was HOT!
she is REALLY singing out on these songs now, and changing up the words a bit, as if they were new to her... great to see

The arena itself wasn't too bad either... i believe it was Dissention who called it "the worst venue ever", but i didn't think so.... i guess it was average.. the sound system and the acoustics were very good, so i wasn't disappointed at all...

Stevie did wear the Frankenboks the whole night, however.. no boots for tonight's show...

One interesting little comment though that she made tonight that made my jaw drop... when she was doing the band introductions, she refered to Waddy as "the man in my life" i was like "whaaaa?" She also made a comment very similar to that in Philly on friday and refered to him as "my husband"... i'm getting the impression here that there might in fact be a little something going on between those two... she certainly seems as giddy as a school girl lately and you have to kind of wonder as to why...

Anyway, the crowd was really into it tonight.. cheered very loud for her to the point where Stevie said "what a great crowd you are!!!"

.. it was definately a fun night at Mohegan Sun


Where were your seats? and
thanks for the review

Well, i do know Don's encore was 'I Will Not Go Quietly' for whoever had asked; Stevie's set was: OTR/Dreams; Rhiannon; Enchanted; Gold Dust Woman, CD and SDMHA with Don; StandBack; BATB: Edge of 17. Then the encores were Leather and Lace and So You Wanna Be A Rock N Roll Star.

Very exciting and fulfilling show to attend, 'Hotel California' alone was worth the price of admission; Stevie soared on it and the place went crazy with applause at each verse she sang, and her 'the wolf is always at the door' on 'New York Minute' gave me chills-- i was thinking of this on Wednesday and then read the idiot review in The Hartford Courant which faulted Stevie on those 2 exact songs- with the 'i'm clever' critic blasting Stevie's "tonal quality'' on 'HC' and comparing her to 'nearly lapsing into becoming a (singing) Katharine Hepburn on ''NYM"- he was just so off,those 2 songs were Stevie's vocal highpoint of the concert! i just dismissed the whole review of '2 80s rockers show their age', which didn't capture what went on at the venue at all. I do feel the piano was too "plunky" on 'Beauty And The Beast' and took away from Stevie's fine reading of it; the pianist is excellent but his playing was too plodding on BATB; it threw Stevie off a little holding the extended note on 'i've changed' though she took a deep breath and recovered and held it on the 2nd try....she has some new, very energetic vocal 'words she punches' during 'Enchanted' which makes this the best 'Enchanted' i've heard from her yet, on this tour. A very fine higher-register note was held at the very end of 'Rhiannon' but the place was screaming so loud i can't remember as much detail as i'd like. what i loved so much about 'Hotel Cal' and 'NYM' was that for the first time in so long, Stevie is singing way up in her higher register and sounding so close to her 'Rumours'/'Tusk' era voice, she CAN do it and it improves her sound so much! During her solo set i think the lowered keys of the songs returned pretty much, most notably on SDMHA, and hearing the notes she hit with such finesse on HC and NYM made the return to her lower range seem needless. She did introduce Waddy as ''the man in my life" and was very up and high energy. A wonderful concert.
