Default Night 3 of 3...should I worry.

The Boston show is on night 3 of 3 shows in a row. Is that a good thing or bad thing? I'm thinking it's a good thing because 1) it's a Boston show (and she likes my city) and 2) she has a day off the following day so she can use up some reserved energy and not worry about the next day. Then again...

Why do I worry about these things?

And she has two stretches like that!

I wouldn't worry about it. Granted it is 3 days in a row, but it is not like it is a long tour or anything that her voice would be strained.

Don't worry and just have a wonderful evening with our beloved Stevie and rock and dance the night away.

Were there any 3 night stints during the SYW tour? Can't recall. It seems to me that she considers the FM shows to be a bit more taxing...Lindsay seems to point out that they tour painfully slowly because of her. They are a louder band than her solo band, so maybe that's why? dunno?

A stevie solo show MAYBE reaches 90 minutes...A Fleetwood Mac show is a consistent 2 1/2 hour event usually. This last tour she got to skip out on Mick's Drum solo, Come, Big Love, some of I'm So Afraid...She sings for a good 2 hours. In a Stevie solo show she gets about 10-12 minutes in breaks thanks to the Rhiannon intro, GDW Intro, and Edge Intro...

I'd be worried on a 3 day stretch just because her voice might be a little hoarse..

Well, in all honesty, I bought a Boston ticket way before I found out about the Borgata shows, and I was a bit worried myself when I found out.
But, you know, I also worry too much.
I'm sure they wouldn't book it if they didn't think it could be done. And, for what it's worth, I think a lot of her vocal problems with SYW came from working the outdoor sheds and allergies/asthma or whatever. The Borgata is indoors, so we have that working in our favor.

The Boston show is RIGHT by the harbor, with a constant breeze..never really muggy, buggy or pollen-y.

Ah, goody.

You can get there easily by bus or subway?

Stevie will be fine I am sure of it for Boston it's a beautiful venue on the boston harbor. Not sure if she will have an opening act or not. She didn't have an opening act at Mohegan Sun it was an evening with Stevie Nicks so it was awesome. But I want to say she will be fine for Boston, It's like if she thought she couldnt do it they wouldn't book a three day stint. I will be at the boston show and lookin forward to it.


Peace,

Steve

Yes (if you like to walk a bit - a mile or so - which I do), you could get off at the red line's south station stop and find you way to the venue. I recommend having dinner at Lucky's, which is on the way..it's very fun and very cool. I'm sure i'm missing better bus routes, silver line stops, etc that get you closer, but on a summer night it's fun to walk if you're not in a rush.
