Stevie Nicks Soundstage: Reactions and Thoughts On The Show - Page 4

It didn't air until 2 am where I am either, luckily I don't have to work in the morning so I stayed up to watch it. I love Stevie so much, but there were some songs that I felt weren't as energetic as I am used to seeing them. Though as was said earlier, it could have been because she may have had to perform them more than once. I loved the vocals on Sara. They definitely seemed stronger to me than when she performed it on the last FM tour. I also miss seeing her wrapped up in red and Lindsey playing - it adds to the drama of the song. How Still My Love was fantastic, until I saw it live for the first time it was always a song I never paid much attention to. I just can't get into her singing Crash. She does a great job with it, but I think I am just so used to hearing DMB sing it that something just seems off. I loved that she was attempting some of the high kicks - I remember at the Boston show last month she had to hang on to the drum or percussion set up to get her leg high, which I thought was so cute and funny. I'm glad she did Fall From Grace, I was sad that it wasn't in the setlist on the tour, I love seeing all the emotion when she sings it. Plus she looked incredible throughout the whole show, I can only hope I look that great when I'm 60! Overall I liked the broadcast and I cannot wait til I get paid next week so I can order the DVD!

Was a pretty good show she was animated throughout loved the scarf dance at the end of HSML could have done without the covers particularly when I think of the oringinals she could have done .Sara was not bad either I liked that she did all the lyrics in the fade out.

I haven't seen the show yet, but this youtube piece looks fantastic! The stage set is jazzed, the band is UP and Stevie is on fire!

I agree. I also think if we all had not seen her so much and were just casual fans, our socks would be knocked off by this performance.

Oh yeah I was thinking while watching it that she still has so much presence and charisma when she wants to ..puts most much younger girl singers to shame.

I know, I watch this

and think it is good and all (in fact it's kind of hot) -- but something just does not work with it.

Waddy Wachtel is amazing on Rock & Roll- and the man is ageless! He looks essentially as he did in 1983 on the "Stevie Nicks In Concert" video.

I wonder if OETA is only showing a shorten version (It was listed as Part 1 of 2 on the schedule), because "Rock N Roll" is now on immediately after "Crash".

What? Seams like a giant assumption to make. Overdub maybe but another singer?

I'll second that opinion. I'm definitely buying it. Is there a copy of Soundstage that will have everything on it? I know on the Soundstage website it lists the original show and then parts 1 and 2 that will be broadcast. However, "I Need To Know" was shown last night on part1???? So I'm a little confused here. I want to see "Beauty & The Beast" moreso than "Dreams", but am really wanting to get as much of the complete show as possible.

I watched a lot of part 1 over and over again. Really enjoyed the performance she and the band gave. I actually think they've gotten better since then, if that's possible. Maybe it's the setting of a live concert, but I'll never forget the show they did in Cincinnati about a month ago.

The only thing that could make that better would be Stevie and Tom performing it.

Well, Sure sounds like Stevie was singing with STEVIE as it blasted through my 5.1 system - WAS NOT one of the background singers either....Doubt it was a guide vocal (Stevie SEEMS more together mentally than Ozzy & his guide vocal tracks in concert) but it was very obvious to my ears

It was a good performance, Great - Dont think so...

I'm not nut-swinging or fan-boying on that one!

Also it is seems, not seams friend! (Dont think I was being a smartass to you, k?)

Tom was NEVER that hot

Carrie is hot, but nowhere near as sultry as La Nicks.
