What was you most memorable Stevie show/shows that you attended? - Page 2

I've only been to three - so it's slim pickings...

But it would HAVE to be the Auckland show where I met Stevie after the show - It was so amazing.

I actually just remembered this morning that Stevie cracked a joke when I met her, to the best of my knowlege it went like this...

Stevie had just walked out from her dressing room, and we were waiting outside - I was holding a bouqet of flowers, so when Stevie came over we said Hi and she went to shake my hand, but because the flowers were so big, I couldn't - and Stevie said "Oh, hello Mr. No-Hands!!!" and she started to laugh quite heavily at her own joke.

It sort of reminds me of the whole singing fish 'joke' in the Destiny Rules doco

Jason. I was THERE.

8th row!!!!

Unforgettable for me was Rock A Little at Jones Beach, because it was my first show and she was INSANE. Then, this past Gold Dust Tour- when I FINALLY touched her hand after all these years!!!

I'd have to say in 1998 on her Enchanted tour...at Irvine Meadows. Didn't think her performance was anything special, but we had a Ledgie get-together before the show and I ended up carting a plethora of Ledgies (actually, I think most are now ex-Ledgies...if anyone who was there, is STILL here, please speak up and be recognized; I don't remember everyone's name these days) in my van to & from the show from our "meeting spot" to save on parking fees & gasoline.

I was there but this neanderthal didn't know about the Ledge at the time...

My most memorable - I guess I'd have to say the March 1977 Rumours show at the San Diego Sports Arena mainly because it was the tour Stevie developed the persona that would enchant for at least the next 3 decades. I also saw her on the white album tour but, to me, she hadn't become a star yet.

The most memorable show I didn't see - her cancelled San Diego appearance during her first solo tour. I'm still a little bitter 25 years later

but I swear I'll get over it

I was there at that one, too! March 10th. Stephen Bishop was opening act. ("Save It For A Rainy Day" was his "hit" at the time)

The one where Lindsey botched the introduction of "Rhiannon" (saying "this one is from our new album called Rumours"), thinking they were about to play "Dreams". Sure, Lindsey..."they" changed the set list on you. Riiiiiiight.

Have you heard the bootleg of the first half of that show?

My buddy & I drove down in my parents' 1973 Toyota Corona station wagon. It was his 22nd BD...and 12 days before my 21st. MANY moons later (like 22.5 years), he was the best-man at my wedding.

I don't think I have. I don't have it on the list of bootlegs that I have. Stephen Bishop is from San Diego - not sure if I even saw the opening act. 1977 is not the best year for my memory. As a matter of fact, neither was 78, 79, 80 or 81. Hell back then you got high just entering the Sports Arena.

It was a beautiful day too. The temprature that day in Denver was a record 105! But where Red Rocks is is about 10 miles west of the coty up in the hills, so up there it was about 75-80.

What's this? You getting so heavily involved in a Stevie event?

J/K Bud, glad you had a good time.
