Stevie Nicks Mohegan Show

[StandbackStevie]

Stevie Nicks Rocked The Sold Out Crowd at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut on Sunday April 20th 2008. Stevie was in top form incredible band and amazing energetic performance. Stevie's second performance at the casino with in a year and Stevie took control of the crowd under spell as always. had 4th row end seat center and moved my way to the front of the stage during edge of seventeen didn't get to shake hands with stevie just see her upclose was good for me and waddy was amazing as always, met some great fellow board members from last years show like Kim Songbird 4. and Looking forward to meeting up with everyone at the boston show i might be also going to the jones beach show in new york if my wallet allows me to do so. Stevie is an amazing artist and so glad she is back on the road touring again this year.


Stevie had no opening act at this show it was an Evening With Stevie Show awesome show she did the same set as the Reading Show lots of talking in between songs which was awesome Stevie is really a great woman and artist and performer she is truley like Fine Wine.

It was great meeting with everyone it really did get very tight up front during the Edge of seventeen walk and it was so cool to be up at the front stage again. Great group of people at the Stevie and Fleetwood Mac shows. Hopefully Fleetwood Mac would reunite again next year if not hopefully Stevie will do another solo tour as well.

Peace and Love,

Steve

OH MY GOD!! I am on such a concert high. I drove two hours with my mom and grandparents down to Mohegan and it was worth every second. We were very worried when we were told that she was coming on at 7 and we were still looking for parking at 6:30!! But we made it. I had 5th row seats in section three on Waddys side. The crowd as Bill said was very loud, but they sat for most of the show....Not me. I only sat for the Piano intros, drum solos ect.

Stand Back - I am starting to love this as the opener. But next time I am going to make sure to enjoy it more. She was wearing her skirt this time and not the boots, but the short skirt. Her twirls were very slow and the high kick wasn't so high....still a great version.

Enchanted - Ehhh same old. Most people sat down for this one.

If Anyone Falls - I hope this never leaves her set. I have been dying to see this live since I was 7 years old. I got my chance last summer and loved it, but tonights version was even better. Everyone got into the acapella part.

Crash - First of all, I love this song. I have always loved it by DMB. I have to take back what I said about Stevies version. Tonights was great, she really got into it at the end. She said something in the beginning about how playing this song has made her the happiest shes been in 15 years?? Blamed FM or something. I think she was blowin smoke. But still this was beautiful.

Rhiannon - Black ruffle skirt with wings. Ahhh same old, but the end kicked ass. She really got into it.

Dreams - Go away

Sorcerer- Now THIS was GOOD! Waddy and Al gave me some smiles because I was one of the few who knew the words. A lot of people stood for this one surprisingly. At the end she belted "yeaahhhhh, yeahhhhhh, YEAHHHHHHH" and hopped up and down for each "yeah". It was awesome.

Gold Dust Woman - Very, very good tonight. I loved the ending. Last year this one seemed to float on by, but she really got into it. For this one she was in her longer dress and the GDW shawl.

Landslide - Yeah I guess it was good. Im just so sick of it. My ex bf joined this one, he wanted me to call him.

*At this point I left my seat and tried to sneak up to the stage but an angry Indian Tribal man came up to me and told me to go back to my seat. SECURITY SUCKED! I saw this one poor guy just dancing a few inches away from his seat into the aisle and he got talked to multiple times. They were serious pricks!*

How Still - This was pretty good. I love groovin to this one.

Edge - I bolted for the stage and got yelled at again, but ignored the guy and planted myself in front of Waddy. There was a very short woman in front of me who was no bigger than the stage. I think I might have shoved her a bit when Stevie came to me. This was the most amazing handshake ive ever gotten, and Ive gotten to shake her hands a few times. I grabbed her left hand and then she took my other hand and looked at me. I told her I loved her and she just smiled. But my stomach dropped. I was starstruck.

Rock and Roll - She came out and I think she high-kicked Waddy with her boot. She tried to apologize, but it was funny!! This one rocks!

Beauty - Purely beautiful. She thanked the audience for being super awesome.

I had an amazing time and I cannot wait for Boston!!!

Hi Jim,

I am such on a high still from this show and I am going to the boston show too I sat down once or twice during stevie talking i was up and moving i can't just sit still in my seat i am pumped up at Stevie Fleetwood Mac and Heart Shows especially I was lucky to meet up with some people that were the same way. Some people next to me in my isle I had 4th isle seat section 2 which is center and go to the front of the stage didn't shake hands with her tonight but she did give me a big smile and wave it is awesome experience to be in the front of the stage and have her be right in front of you like that it's really like meeting God to Me...lol Stevie is a religious spirtual experience I can't believe it I so wired from the show still its like you don't want to the concert to end.

Jim are going to any other shows on this tour? good to hear from you


Peace,

Steve

IM SOOO GLAD U HAD FUN!!!!!!! Great review.

Im still totally jealous of annyone who's gotten to shake her hand durring the edge walk. Yes ive met her, but this is just like a must.

[StandbackStevie]

Thanks and the mohegan sun arena is probably the best place in connecticut to see a great show can't wait for the boston show .

[teedee]

the show was great, stevie sounded and looked great. there was no opening act, which i actually liked it being just stevie. yes the set list is the same, but you should keep in mind that this is an extention of the crystal visions tour and not really a new tour...just new dates... she was in a great mood and sounded fantastic. one thing i dont like is when stevie refers to her self as an old lady, yes she will be sixty, but that is not old today... maybe as a rocker, she feels she cant do what she did on stage when she was 40, but thats true for everyone stevie,i still walk away from her shows in awe.... shes still young at heart, has a great sense of humor sounds great and as always looks beautiful...

[Songbird4]

I just walked in the door....who knew poker could be so much fun!!

The show was great!! She defininately put all her energy into it. I think Sorcerer was the highlight of the night for me. I don't really like the song, but with the waitress and cleaning lady bit she does before combined with her nailing the end...it was the highlight of the night for me. Crash was the real reason I went to the show...needed to hear it live. I thought the first few notes were a little off, then she settled into it nicely. She was Chatty Cathy and very animated.....she seemed all around happy and really appreciated the crowd.

Security could have cared less if you took pics or videos, but wasn't letting anyone up til Edge....or the "White Dove hits the screen" as they were telling everyone. I took some pics and video. I'll try to get the pics up tomorrow....I'm not sure about the video yet.

Steve, it was great seeing you!! Look forward to seeing you again soon. Tina, sad I missed you....hope to catch you at the next show!!

thanks for posting the reviews. i loved reading them. were you allowed to take any pictures? how long was the show?

[MacMan]

Thanks for the reviews people....

[StandbackStevie]

yes they say no camera's and people were flashing left and right i had 4th row center isle seat actually people were going up to the stage with there cell phones taking pictures in front of the security guys and they seemed to be more laxed than with the two voices tour at mohegan in 2005 had front row in front of stevie and it was very tight security then last night seemed more relax with security i though and seemed alot more people were able to go to the stage felt like the all the floor seating was up against the stage last night great crowd and awesome show. i am sure you will see pictures being posted from this show soon. I didn't bring a camera with me i should have would have had awesome pics.

steve

[kathy1]

what was the merchandise? is it the same as last year because i have read it is the same.

[Chrislit18]

The show was so amazing!
I seriously almost cried during Landslide.

I took some videos, and some mostly blury pics, she never stops moving! lol.
[they didnt even notice my camera under my sunglasses lol!]

I was in sec 5, row N...I wish I could have been closer....better luck next time....
the people around me were standing up the whole time too, except during like Enchanted, Sorcerer, and the drum solos [which IMO could be taken out of the show, it was the worst part of it for me!]

I love Rhiannon, I took a video of the opening piano solo
Crash was soooo good. I have a video of this as well. I like Stevies almost as much as the original.
Dreams was blah, and Sorcerer too-but I loved the air guitar she did during it. I have video of it as well!
Enchanted was fun actually. so I have no complaints.
Rock and Roll Kickd A$$!!
and Eo17 was great, I didnt think I could tolerate such a long version of it, but I did
HSML was probably one of my favorites of the night. I wish she'd do more BD songs....

I wish I could go to the Boston show now!!
But I'm saving my money in case other tours come around by this summer.

[The Catdancer]
