For 60 years old. She sounds great. She looks great. We could say that
with the rolling stones and tina turner and cher and neil young.... they all get
old and their voice changes.

Stevie for me I love now more than ever. I didn't like the stoned out Stevie
that didn't even know if she had an audience out there.

Rock on Stevie.....May the younger fans see how great you truely are.
Darla

UOTE=studyinscarlet;765639]I thought part 2 was 'meh'. No, she doesn't look like she did all those years ago and she certainly doesn't have the vocals that she did. I dunno where people are seeing or hearing that. I'll watch the HBO special or the Red Rocks to see Rockin', gravel-voiced, Stevie.

This was Stevie today, as she is now. Okay. But I wince when people say this was the best ever and she hasn't changed. Like 'Yikes!'. Of course she has. Things change. Even Stevie.

I did like Part 1 better.[/QUOTE]

I loved that video! She looked and sounded superb! She is ageless!

I know. And, not only does she look great, but she is agile. She certainly does not walk like any 60 year old I know. She still moves like she is half that age.

Well, I don't know many 60 year olds that wear boots with heels like Stevie was sporting, but those I do know aren't so decrepit that they can't walk like that. Some of the people I know over 60 even jog and rollerblade. I don't think she's particularly spritely for her age. I do think her face and skin look really good and completely natural, not botoxed up. So, I think she is younger than most looks- wise, but not movement wise.

I think it is the way she dances around the stage, twirls, and takes agressive stands while singing. I do not really see many 60 year old women doing that. I am sure some do though.

As for the shoes, Dolly P. wears similar sized heels, though not in platforms.

Platforms make it a little easier, I think. They give you more balance. But I won't even mind if the Reeboks come back for the FM tour. Whatever it takes to get you through the rigorous schedule. I'm all for it.

I haven't seen Cher since her "farewell tour" was in Los Angeles. I'll be seeing her next month and I'll check out her moves. She's 62 now.

Alas - Cher!

She may move but her face won't

No problem! I have more actually... I just have to figure out how to transfer them quickly from CD-Rom to my computer (long story, but i'm kinda computer illiterate).

Ok so I can finally comment on part 2 of soundstage since I had my dvr record it yesterday during the day so I could watch it last night. I was so irritated when I turned on DWQED on thursday night to find kennywood memories on. How stupid to NOT put Stevie on for that. I have seen that stupid show at least 10 times.
Anyway, Part 2 was not as good as part 1 but I really enjoyed Gold Dust Woman. That was the best one I have ever seen in terms of her just being so very into the song and I loved the looks she was giving when she was singing the You dont feel me now, you should see me now part. Has she just started singing the You dont feel me now part? Either way she looked really good and there was something so sexy about the way she sang this song. Its amazing how somebody can be so sexy like that without having to show any skin at all. Good stuff.
I also loved Landslide and seeing all the pictures of Stevie and her family. I thought it was very well done.
I also enjoyed Rhiannon and Edge of Seventeen also but I cant get over how good Sara and How Still My Love were from Part 1. I keep rewatching those songs over and over again on my dvr. I wish I had the cd now just for How Still My Love. That song is one of my all time favorites!!

Okay - I just watched the whole show again.

I have to say that La Nicks can totally rock on some songs. She slays FFG and is electric on EO17.

I also think that if you never heard of Stevie Nicks and saw the SS video, you likely would be hip to it if you are into rock and roll. So, I think on its own, it is a slammin concert.

I think around here, we are oversexposed to her and we (myself included) also compare her way too much to what she was almost 30 years ago.

Yes,yes, yes, yes and yes.
I was delighted and comforted by seeing Stevie Nicks be all the stevies i love. Rocking,Mystic,80's synthisized,Sexy, Sincere.ect. The older I get, the more i feel i NEED her to still be her, and watching soundstage, i feel like got to see my hero shine. I AM SO GLAD *MOST* everyone enjoyed it as much as I did. I'd stayed away from the ledge for a bit to just be able to enjoy her SoundStage withought any overanalizations (that happen sometimes). I had a get together, and people who had never really seen Stevie were captivated. Seriously.After they saw the shows, they were like "alright, I get it. that was cool. She 's good, theres really no one else like her" I breathed a sigh of relief. I loved watching some of my friends watch Sara and get absorbed in watching, or watch Rhiannon, and say ....WOW. at the end. Guys and Girls were like shes HOW old? She's Hot. and then show me their I pods the next day with How still my love on it, and then say, i think i liked it live better, whens that coming out? She did good folks. She did good.
(im gonna try to resist saying something cheezy....trying...trying.....nope, can't...)
Rock-on Gold Dust Woman.

Thumbs up Timeless

I still find it hard to believe that Stevie is not married, I know this thread is not talking about this, I just look at her and wonder, maybe she has a torrid love affair going on! Timeless she is! Go Stevie!

I posted some mini-screen caps from the show on my blog. Unfortunately I didn't realzie if you put them in the margin, people can't open them and make them bigger. I'll have to do a separate post with just pictures.

The pics are on the right-hand side margin beneath the "Gift Of Screws" covers.
