Cat, I was expressing my opinion. Just like you and everyone else expresses theirs.
I have NEVER once... and I challenge anyone to find where I have... said that anyone is less than a fan than anyone else.

All I suggested was that perhaps some fans would be happier turning their attentions and energies elsewhere... even for just a little while... instead of constantly finding themselves disappointed by Stevie's choices.

That's not a criticism of someone's right to call themselves a fan, it's just an opinion that perhaps there are better, more positive things to focus on instead.

Hate your house -- find a new one. Boyfriend keeps breaking your heart -- dump him. Favorite TV show sucks now -- turn the channel. Bored with your favorite singer -- listen to a new one.

I just can't imagine finding any enjoyment whatsoever in something or someone that continually lets you down. That's all.
I feel that way about ANYTHING, not just Stevie.

Like The Ledge recently

Mostly being a smart a$$ - but in a way . . . . . . . .

Also, this is in general and in no way directed at Le Stew.

For the record, I like a healthy exchange of ideas. And I am capable of writing an epic to back up my opinions. I'm just not interested in doing those things with you.
I try to provide a counterpoint to keep the discussion going, and assumed by the fact that you never fail to engage in these discussions with me, that you were doing the same.

I can name five good friends whose opinions on Stevie are far closer to yours than to mine, and we all enjoy discussing our various viewpoints. Since none of them post here on this board, I seek out those discussions with people who do.

I don't know about anyone else, but it's not interesting for me to debate with the people who already agree with me... it's more fun to talk to the people who have a different stance. That's when a conversation is lively and more challenging... even if it's a topic that's been discussed countless times before... since there are always new angles and aspects to mull over.

Its a resolution I keep failing to maintain.

Every few months I react when the sharp stick is poked into my cage.

In all sincerity, if you don't enjoy the debates, then I'll stop. I certainly don't want to seem argumentative or belligerent.

Mind you, that doesn't mean I'm going to stop expressing my opinions.

this is exactly how i feel. in the end, i will always love her. but i, too, like rickypt, am finding the whole CV sameoldsetlist, boring and uninspiring. i miss the wild, crazy, creative stevie. but if she's had enough, and now just wants to sing the same old songs, i'll still go to her shows. will i buy CV? nope.

RELAX!!!

Are you still inspired to write new material for release some day? Your fan base is loving this release and also yearns for new material to rock to and enjoy for years to come.

A follow up question if I may:
I love seeing you in concert. Your Stand Back spins are a crowd favorite. How do you prevent from getting dizzy or missing the microphone when coming out of the spins?

(I know the Stand Back spins question is kind of lame, but had to think of a question that she will feel safe in answering).
It's called spotting - you pick a point and let your eye meet it coming out of every turn so you don't get dizzy.
