It seems like security is for the most part, clueless about the Edge rush/walk.
Sometimes it seems like they are. I've heard them telling concert goers that the first 3 rows will be allowed up and they seemed to have been instructed on that before hand. Sometimes, I guess not. Michele

I was told before the concert started that only the first row would be allowed to go to the stage, as per Stevie's request. I found that rather strange. As for Steve Real, he has been her vocal coach since the Dance Tour. Since then, her voice has improved with every tour. |If he is not on the road with Stevie or Fleetwood Mac, he is also Olivia Newton-John's back-up singer. His picture is in several tour books as well and has released his own cd a few years ago as well. He sat on stage last night on the right hand side all night. Over the years, I have also asked if he could get her to change up the set list and actually gave him a list of songs that we would love back in the set.. Also John, your pictures arenot showing up. Ugh. Please try to reload them. And as for the edge walk, where were you sitting?

Do you think that Steve Real is responsible for Stevie's monotone voice?
Granted no one in their 60's has the vocal range they had in their 20's and 30's.

I ask that question because I think Stevie plays it a little too safe.

Yes, I have done the edge walk for more than 20 years, but last night I felt the love. I felt she stayed with me longer than she has in the past. Maybe she knew I needed that. I do feel bad to those that were held back, but I am glad that I got so much love last night. . I am hoping that some pictures show up for this show. I would love to have some memories of this night.

My experience at the show was a lot like that. I was also in the front row (got the ticket on ticketmaster website at around 1:15 on the day of the show). I too have done the edge walk for many years (first time--1983). I felt some really good vibes from Stevie that night. She also stayed with me longer, and held both of my hands.

Your seat must have been somewhere near mine. I was also front row center.

I would imagine Stevie must worry sometimes that somebody might get hurt. Granted that it was decades ago, I could picture the incident in Cincinatti still being on her mind when she's thinking about how to handle The Edge Walk. If you try to look at it from her point-of-view, it must be pretty scary sometimes, i.m.o.

I know, that is why I think she is wonderful for doing that at each venue if she can.
I aways wondered though what it must be like on the other side bending down and looking into the crowd. I bet it is wild from her perspective. We need a "Stevie cam" attached to a head wreath or something.
