Series Finale: The Photo Era Scrapbook #9: Rock A Little

[petep9000]

It's funny how RAL tour pictures generate such reactions. It seems like the tour photos and recordings are free passes for people to rag on Stevie's so-called horrible appearance and sound, since she was doing coke and booze of her own choice. Where are these same strong opinions when someone posts a photo from the 'Whole Lotta Trouble' tour? Or the 'Behind The Mask Tour', or TOSOTM tour? Instead, the usual reaction is "tsk-tsk, oh poor Stevie she was so ill, oh how sad that she was 'forced' by her doctors to take 5 times the daily dose of Klonopin, oh she was only trying to help herself, oh she couldn't help it that she was fat but at least she wasn't partying and gloating over her excesses like in 1986, oh I've been heavy and I know what it's like to have all those health issues, well at least she still had a pretty face," etc etc.
