I know you weren't asking me but I did not recognize the song at first. When I did, I was in awe. It was the highlight in an evening full of highlights. It was really cool to see her standing there with Waddy, Lindsey and Carlos. That was one incredible show.

Thats incredible. What were your other highlights?

After seeing Elise in Vegas, I call her "Mini Stevie"....she looks just like her from afar. Up close, not so much. I thought it was hilarious how many random fans thought she was really Stevie though.

BTW...another highlight from AHI 2000 was Lindsey being there. He was incredible. Acoustic Gypsy was the best thing that had happened since the Enchanted tour! I cannot understand why they have never done that again.

His whole speech, about his family coming to Arizona and then coming to visit Stevie's parents....so sweet.
~ Stevie singing Solitary Man was another killer moment.

2001's highlight was Lindsey's version of "Love Minus Zero"

YES. I love that. It's one of my favorite Dylan songs and Lindsey really did a great job. His speech was lovely and spot on also.

^ Hell yes. The boot from that 2000 show is probably one of my all time favorites. I wish I were a more die hard fan then, I would have definitely gone. Love The Difficult Kind w/ Sheryl too.

Anyway you could post the boot? I'd really love that.

As for Sheryl, I cannot STAND her now. I hated that she basically rode Stevie for a year and then wrote her off when she got her spot in Stevie's limelight. Skank.

wait. what? Sheryl Crow? the same woman that helped get Stevie's music on the Practical Magic soundtrack, co-produced TISL (a top 5 and critically acclaimed album) and showcased Stevie to a world audience at her Central Park concert - among other things? surely you mean some other Sheryl.

Uhuh, and NOW where is she? Yeah...She can blow me.

I kind of share your feelings about riding coat tails, but I think that went both ways. I didn't buy the 'oh, we're BFFs' at all, and I think that it was all cleverly arranged to garner more attention, because you're right, you don't hear anything about them at all anymore.

But it's not fair to put all the blame on Sheryl and say she didn't do anything after that. She released an album, she toured, just like Stevie did. They both just went their separate ways after the TISL era.

I think they were friends and still are. I think their friendship was just way more visible then because the working aspect was in the public light. We really never hear about Stevie's friends outside of her work do we? So, for all we know, they could have dinner or lunch on a regular basis. It is not like the press is following either one of them to any significant degree. So, unless they went to The Ivy in LA or some other place to be seen, it is likely it would go unnoticed.

You're right. I didn't really think about that, but I'd of been curious to see how TISL turned out without Sheryl's guidance. I actually have a feeling it would've turned out better.

I'm not saying they hated each other, but I definitely think most of their very special, sisterly, ~magickal~ friendship was exaggerated. They were all over each other's stuff, and then their names aren't linked to each other for years in a row. And there's Stevie telling Jim in 2005 that they hadn't seen each other in quite some time and that Stevie emailed her but hadn't gotten a reply. She acted somewhat condescending towards Sheryl's 'bicycle world' involvement.

Who's Jim?

And STEVIE, EMAIL, well I never!

Good work Stevie. She was right to be condescending, 'cause look how that turned out.

I took that as tongue in cheek. But, to each their own.

I agree, I think they were promoting a product from 1998-2002 ish. But, I do think they are still inner circle friends.
