Weather or not you like sheryil crow, cris isack, ect. is beside the point. I just wanna hear Stevie. My friend that I went to the concert with was all excited about don. don this, don that, then when he did none of his songs my friend left dissappointed. And also, so did I (yes, Leather and lace still gets me choked up, but after hearing it at every single bennefit I was ready for something different) as far as "so ya wanna be a rock and roll star"PHULEEEEZZE! I would trade that for "if Anyone falls" any day I like this pitty party, I feel better already!
You're not the only one. Phoenix fans often feel cheated by the benefit. Normally I only feel cheated about not getting near the stage, but not about the guests. If guests provide variety I like it. I like a special show not just a cut down version of a tour show with a guest singing along on Stevie's songs. That blows. As I predicted in another thread about the benefit, we got the worst of all worlds. No songs from Don's set. Nothing special from Stevie. The set list was cut down from other Gold Dust Tour shows. To top it off we got Don screwing up Stevie's songs and we got the same stale L&L and SDMHA. There are a lot of other things I'd like to say about the benefit but I won't. After hearing about tonight's set, I do wish I had gone to Vegas for the closer. Oh well.

[QUOTE=Mokona

Anyone else feel this way? I shouldn't be so greedy because at least I got to see her a few times this summer, but I'm still feeling blue... [/QUOTE]

I feel the same way. I saw her four times. Had great seats each time, got to shake her hand once, and got to meet Taku, but it's still not enough.

I am, I am. Plus I'm back at work officially on Wednesday. I wish I could have ended the summer with a bang. (Don't go there, pervs. )

I'm really not. I had a great time at all of the shows I attended this past year and had the opportunity to see her in Vegas twice. I honestly cannot complain (well, I could but I won't )

So I guess lunch with an old Jewish woman cracking jokes wasn't really an ideal ending, eh?

Yeah, I'm sad I missed it. I chatted with Ken on MSN the night before he left for Vegas and he was really excited. That made me want to go. And then watching the karaoke stuff really made me wish I was there. And the video clips from the show made me have a heart attack! WHE WAS ON FIRE!!! But I'm happy for everyone that went. Wish I coulda been in on that action though!

Cool Like I said...

I'm not in the least depressed by missing a show this time around...I did miss hangin' with fellow Ledgies in Dallas though.

I think we should get the nicest seats and the best alcohol at the pity party, since we live in a totallly Stevie-free country! Glass of wine, anyone?!

Works for me! I'm very happy that everyone had a good time in Vegas last night...and the clips were great...but that doesn't keep my selfish human nature from rearing it's ugly head by wanting to be there myself. Thank God I can stop watching the clock now....it's officially over (for now). Time to save up for this Australia gig next year....I wonder if they'll let me get into my 401K???? Bring on the wine!

Heart

Joining the pity party:

I got to see her twice this tour and I found myself doing the same exact thing. If she never does a solo tour again the world is going to be missing out on something great. I do know and I can hold dear in my heart that the very last place I (may have) enjoyed her beauty on stage was in the best place...Rod Rocks Colorado.

It is a very sad day!
