Chris,

You just cracked me right up with this one.

Then, when she leaned over me to shake hands with a guy behind me, her chest was right smack in my face. God, Stevie has a nice rack! Sign me up to be in the SOTB/BOTB club!!! Also, I got to touch her leg warmers and reeboks! LOL

YAY! I'm so happy for you!!

Great reviews, everyone! 2 more days 'til Houston!!!

Awesome reviews, guys. It was like being there all over again... And she got yet another great review here: http://news.tbo.com/news/MGBG9TZK4BE.html

TAMPA - Blond tresses glowing and lacy black wings flowing, Stevie Nicks twirled and cooed, rocked and reminisced to the loud appreciation of 7,500 fans at the Ford Amphitheatre on Wednesday night.
Her sandpapery alto mesmerized, and her multiple wardrobe changes - no less than five in two hours - aggrandized. At 57, Nicks seemed to have only inched away from the edge of 17.

The woman remains one of the ageless angels of gypsy rock.

``I dedicate this to you,'' she told the crowd, introducing ``Landslide'' and singing against a backdrop of images from her youth. ``I'm getting older, too,'' she sang.

Reaching back through the 1980s and into the '70s, she pulled out Fleetwood Mac standards including ``Dreams,'' a dreamy rendition of ``Rhiannon'' and a muscular ``Stand Back.''

She returned to the present with a bewitching ``Sorcerer'' and ``Fall from Grace'' from her 2001 album, ``Trouble in Shangri-La.''

At times dreamy and graceful, her hands floating in hula undulations or curving in flirtatious come-hither beckoning, Nicks was contemplative (``Circle Dance,'' a Bonnie Raitt cover) and powerful (``Edge of Seventeen'').

When all was almost over, Nicks thanked her fans, moving along the length of the stage and bending to clutch hands and accept gifts of roses, stuffed animals, even a crescent-moon sculpture, which got the giver a ``thank you.''

She returned for an encore performance, covering Led Zeppelin's ``Rock and Roll'' and her own ``Beauty and the Beast,'' against a multimedia backdrop of the old movie version.

Opening for Nicks' Gold Dust Tour was Vanessa Carlton (``A Thousand Miles''), an accomplished pianist with a girlish voice who offered an impressive mix of original music vaguely reminiscent of a young Janis Ian.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Happy to hear the tour books are out... I really hope she comes back my way so I can buy one. If she does, I promise to take orders from everyone!

SEX ON CHIFFON I like that description. At Bristow/DC though last Sunday, Stevie really was not playing that up during the song. She made a point to put her hands on her hips,etc...and acting a little sassy, but no rubbing of thighs etc... that was previously mentioned. I know this won't happen, but it would be so cool if there was an official concert DVD made of her at Red Rocks again. Talk about Full Circle.

My first ever Stevie show and got to touch her reeboks, legwarmer and her lovely hand! What a magical night.

She threw the tambo? Hasn't done that in years.

Thanks for the review. Congratulations on touching Stevie--it is wonderful! I haven't come off cloud nine myself. I'm mad about the tourbooks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been to two shows, and I have no tourbook to show for it.

Some believe she's motioning cutting lines on a mirror. She did it in Vegas during the Wednesday 5-11 show - not sure if she's done it every show or not.

The tourbook is nothing to write home about. There are hardly any pictures of Stevie anyway... There are more pictures of the backup singers then there are of Miss Stevie. And there is almost no writing. There is one paragraph at the begining and that is it. It only about 12 pages... It's not a great program, if I do say so myself. The cover of the tourbook is pretty cool though!
