STEVIE NICKS-GREEK 5-20-07-FAN REVIEW w/ PICS

[newyawka]

did you take these w/ a digital camera?

[petep9000]

How do you guys manage to get cameras into the shows? Whenever I see Stevie at Jones Beach (which, admittedly has not been since the FM SYW tour) security roots through your bag at the door and I'm pretty sure I've seen people get 'felt up' by security.

I'd just die if they confiscated my digital camera, it cost me $400!

I guess I could try stuffing the camera in between my butt-cheeks (I mean, it's not like I haven't had stranger things there before anyway)

I think she has consistently said POTU has the angriest lyrics, not the meanest

She used the word "meanest" at one of her TISL shows when introducing Planets. People always call the one version of SAY the "Angry version" and the lyrics are certainly mean. Angry lyrics, mean lyrics.......very similar. And who really cares anyway.

BTW...didn't Stevie say she "softened the lyrics to POTU because they were just too mean and written when she was at her most dramatic and she she just "couldn't do that to LB".

She might have. I just remember her saying she was angry when she wrote it and the lyrics are angry. She recently reiterated this lang. in the J. Benson interview.

But, seeing as how POTU is about LB and FFG seemingly is inspired by LB - the tone is not surprising

I've always gotten mine in the same way - I strap it with an ace wrap to the side of my ankle, then my pant leg goes over it. Metal detectors have not found it either. Once you get it inside, they USUALLY don't care if you take pics. And if they do, like in Vegas for example, they usually just warn you and tell you to stop.

You could try inbetween your butt cheeks, but it's probably not as comfortable.

The Greek Theatre didn't say you couldn't take cameras inside, but I had mine hidden anyway and they didnt wand us either. Once inside, there was a general announcement made that was to be no flash photography, but did that stop anyone from using flash? No.

It really depends on the venue. If you get the camera into the venue, I would try to hide it when going in. Then, when the show gets started, see if others are using flash. If so, give it a try but if you can be discreet for the first few shots until you know what kind of security you're dealing with, that's the best thing. You can try to take shots without flash. For me, somethimes they come out okay and sometimes not, depending upon the lighting.
