Yeah. I was listening to a boot of one of the later shows on The Dance tour. She sings Silver Springs and her voice is ragged. I wince in pain at some of the notes. They sound like they hurt. That said, it's amazing that she was able to do it on the SYW tour. In retrospect, after listening to that Dance performance, I can't say I'm surprised.

what I should have said is that she can hit certain notes, but that the times she's tried and failed have scared her to settle into a comfort zone.

I wish she would do a four night gig where she tears the shiittte out of the warhorses - does SOTM - and then takes the next year off -- I'd hock the silver to see that one!

well while we're wishing, I thought about this the other day. she should make the AZ benefit shows a tradition to do whatever the hell she wants...acoustic sets, demos, old stuff, covers - not the routine setlist. fans would keep coming back year after year just to see what she'd pull out and raise a ****load of money. but, like I said, since we're wishing and all...

...she might want to share that ability with her fans sometime.

Agree. Cept on TISL there are like 4 songs that irritate me to no end, her vocals I mean, she just drones on and on with no spark, blech.

She is more consistant at least on SYW.

I'm sure that's on her list of things to do right behind 1)change setlist 2)break out fabulous clothes 3)put out collection of unreleased demos.

That's a great idea, Jaz. I think the AZ heart benefits are done now that the building has opened, but what about a yearly benefit in Vegas or L.A. for her troops ipod foundation thing. I'd pay top dollar on a yearly basis for that.

oh, I guess I didn't know the benefit shows were for the building alone. for some reason I thought they were just to raise money for the foundation. I never made it to one and I was hoping to be able to. oh well. but yeah, I think it'd be a great way for Stevie to satisfy some of our cravings and raise some money for a great cause.

I've enjoyed her hitting some of the "Dreams" notes on this tour "What you haAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaddd"...I noticed from my bootlegs she didn't do it at ALL shows, but when she did it was good.

She sure as hell did it at our show and I almost passed out.

I'd have to agree. I've just haven't heard her hit or hold the notes like that anytime recently.

YES! And same for HSML - when I saw it in Vegas 5/05, it was OK, but not great. Had the sexy vibe, but she didn't go for the "you go your way!" or "Go on...get out!" It was a big (and pleasant) surprise to hear her make more of an effort at the Camden show this year.
