Tampa show!

[xxxmx]

great performance! she opened with Stand Back - pleasant surprise - but everything else was the Same (if i remember correctly). lots of new outfit combinations. boots the whole time. frizzzzzy hair thanks to our 100% humidity did the Edge walk and wore gloves, which looked RIDICULOUS in the middle of a floridian summer.

they were enforcing the No Cameras thing big time. i didn't bother to bring mine in but i did get a few good shots on my phone. nothing clear enough to share. a few ladies got Very snippy with security after being asked to put away the cameras. there are signs everywhere, please don't get pissy!

one major complaint that has nothing to do with stevie: TICKETMASTER SUCKS. shocking, right? i bought tix in Row H on the side. the side sections begin with Row F so these were great seats, third row on the aisle. well, someone propped up two chairs in front and called it Row E. so now we're in the fourth row. security did their job GRRR and didn't let us up - first three only - even while i rationally explained why we should be allowed up. i missed half of Sorceror, whatever was next, and GDW because i was hunting down the stage manager. Mike, great guy, had us escorted to the front. so that all ended well, but i felt bad for everyone else in Row H. sometimes you have to speak up to the right person.

great night. i was glad my dad came and he was SO excited to hear Landslide. she talked about her dad for a while and mine just looked so happy to be there. i went into tonight expecting the Same Old and got it. that's all right, because Same Old is a high energy show that leaves me smiling, even if i've already had Same Old eleven times before.

one more thing - for amber if she's still around: stevie belted the "my lonely oo-oONE" toward the end of HSML. it's small, but it was fantastic.

didn't recognize anyone there. anyone have something to add?

? did she still play outside the rain/dreams..maybe she only used that as an opener for the small joints

That is exciting!!! I am glad it all went well. Gotta admit, I am jeleous, as out seats are not as good, but we are on the floor, so I don't think I can really complain. I have 2 copies of a letter to give to Stevie, so we'll see how that goes, but I am glad Rock Momma delivered!!!

Wait...wait.... I don't understand. She went back to opening with Stand Back? What is the setlist for this night? Wait.. What? Could someone please clarify?

[TpaDavid]

Here is the set list from Tampa - the middle songs are not in order- I can't recall the order at the moment! It was a great show, Stevie is in top form and her band was fantastic! Lots of harmony singing with the back up singers. The harmonies on Crash were beautiful....Stevie ended the show with these words - They way to peace is through music - pray for peace.....

Stand Back
Outside the Rain
Dreams
Stand Back
If Anyone Falls in Love
Sorcerer
Crash into Me
Landslide
Fall from Grace
Face the Promise
Gold Dust Woman
Rhiannon
How Still My Love
Edge of Seventeen
Rock and Roll (encore)
Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You (encore)

You know we got problems when Stevie would rather play Stand Back twice then put something else in its spot

I can see it now. She just changes costumes. She starts the show doing the Treadmill Stand Back and comes out three songs later and does the Civil War Stand Back.

Well, why not? We've had doves! She'd know better than to try to get the chickens to fly.

or would she? hmmm, chickens can fly right? They have wings, maybe they can fly to the sky.

thanks for the reviews. does anyone have any pictures from the show?

and had a great time. She did Stand Back with a red shawl which I thought was a nice change. The Seger song ROCKED in my opinion. Also, she made some joke about Craig Ferguson that I didnt totally catch but it cracked her up. She didnt even mention releasing the Soundstage DVD...but she did mention taping the show.
