I'm not saying Stevie should rest on her laurels... and I'm certainly not belittling what Lindsey is currently doing... but fans tend to (or at least seem to) forget sometimes that this is only Lindsey's second solo tour in the 26 years since his first solo album.
So of course it's going to seem like he's taking more chances, since it's all still so fresh and "new."

This is going to be a really goofy comparison, but I was watching a Simpsons episode the other day, and Lisa said that "Itchy And Scratchy" was "still a great show, but after so many years the characters just lose their impact."

I think Stevie still puts on a great show, but maybe she, too, has lost some of her impact. Or at least certain songs have, because fans are so familiar with them now.
