That was the Tempe, Arizona show at Compton Terrace.

The Forum shows were taped in Los Angeles in 1982. That's where they recorded the BEST Live Sister's of the Moon EVER. The one from the professional video where she sings, 'sister, brother, sister, of the moooooooon!"

The original definitely wasn't Stevie's finest moment but there were still some really good parts that made it into the released version (Outside the Rain, one more link in the chain part, No Spoken Word, and scary edge wail).

Even knowing what I know now about Stevie's performance and state, I still think I would walk away from that show satisfied. BATB would have been worth my money alone.

We're like so on the same page ancient queen

(and I say that out of love and not anything to do with being ancient, I just like making up special names for people).

Ahh i can always count on you, Viv! That's what i thought it was. My mom is so funny when we listen to this performance together. She'll be like, "Sister...brother...uncle...father!"

Everybody always picks Forum, but I thought the Irvine Meadows was a lot more passionate--it really punched me in the gut.

God this show is just heartbreaking. Gypsy really gets me. And at the end of Leather of Lace (I think), when Stevie talks about actually smiling. When ever I think of the Mirage tour and the incredible performances Stevie gave, I think of the strength she had to have possessed to get through such a sad time in front of thousands of people the way she did.

I'd see a tour from 1975, when it was still early days. Then a show when Rumours was at its crazy height. I'd also see more Dance shows, because I didn't know that Christine was leaving. In fact, I thought they'd probably go into the studio and record more new music and then tour again. So, I didn't hoard those shows like I would have if I'd known what I know now.

Sad to admit, I never listened to that...do you know if there are any downloads floating around?

Go to youtube and search for the Mirage concert video. That concert is a combination of both forum shows.

I'd definitely have to see a Rock A Little show for all it's cocainey goodness!

The RAL tour was the last stand of the Stevie Nicks that drew alot of us older fans in. After RAL Stevie changed due to all the stuff we now know about. Stevie was never again that intense rock & roll woman onstage that she had been in the 70's and early 80's.

Couldn't agree more. This is still my favorite version of the song.

We can only pick one show or tour? Rats. I would have to go with the Mirage tour. Despite Lindsey wearing that stupid hat.

seekerj · #44 04-09-2010, 09:24 AM

Since I can only choose one, I would choose an "Enchanted" tour show, because of the set list. We got to see many songs that were completely unexpected. I was at the opening night in Hartford, so no one knew yet what was going to be played. Even now that I know, I would still choose Enchanted, because the set list covered songs from so many different parts of her career. I remember I was particularly shocked and happy to hear "Enchanted", "Gold And Braid", "Twisted", "After The Glitter Fades", "Garbo, "Rose Garden, and "Sleeping Angel".

I would love to go back to '83 for a WH concert. Not so much for the songs but for the atmosphere. The early 80's were such a great time to be a Stevie fan. She was young (and seemed much younger than she was) and full of excitement. She was part of the coolest band in the world and now a big time solo artist. She was the queen of rock & roll and she was loving every minute of it. Plus she was a babe. A sexy, hot "girl" that me and all my buddies were madly in love with.....well, except for Lewis who still carried a jones for Linda Ronstadt. Oh yeah, I would love to go back just to be in the crowd and feel that excitement again.
