Since Dave seems to be so proactive and out of the box as a thinker why doesn't someone tweet him to let Stevie know what we think? If the Heart & Soul Tour is to be their hits, plus to showcase them as duet partners like the Two Voices Tour then I'd suggest she do those duets, plus some hit, and she could now do Secret Love since it will have been "released" by then and then tell people during that song, this is from my upcoming new album and I'll be back to play this new music live I'm so excited about. I mean get people pumped. So my suggestions for this tweet if someone were to do it would be:

Leather & Lace
Stop Draggin' My Heart Around
Stand Back (since they both have done it)
I Don't Want To Know
Twisted
Landslide
Whenever I Call You "Friend"

the on her own in her set

Rooms On Fire
Rhiannon
Dreams
Secret Love
Sorcerer
Fall From Grace
Edge of Seventeen
Love Is or Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You?

But PLEASE NO COVERS. You have too much of your own material.

I'm glad to see I'm not being ripped apart for my rambling post. I had a feeling it would strike a chord with a lot of others as well.
I just wanted to react to a few things that others have posted.
I do give her credit for the TISL tour setlist, she did in fact do a lot of songs from that album...but halfway through she dropped Planets and Bombay Sapphires, and Too Far from Texas was only done when Sheryl Crow was present. So actually only three songs made it through the entire tour.
I also really agree with the no covers concept. We are talking about an artist with 40 years of history, and mored than enough of her own material. If she was a new artist with one album to her name, then yeah, covers would fill out the set list. BUT, thats not the case, theres simply no need for them and its infuriating when we know that slot could have gone to one of her own songs instead.
If someone actually tweets Dave, I think they should challenge him to ask Stevie to do only her SOLO material. No FM stuff, leave that for the next FM tour. Lots of Artists who are in both a band and have a solo career manage to keep them seperate. Phil Collins had two careers for 30+ years. His solo tours never included Genesis material and vice-versa. I can only Imagine how awesome a solo only material tour could be if Stevie was to ever do it.

I think the reason she does so many covers comes down to the fact that she really just doesn't like alot of her own material - namely everything from RAL, TOSOTM, & SA. She routinely ignores these 3 albums and it doesn't appear she's likely to perform anything from them anytime soon - with the exception of course of HAEWAFY. It's a shame she feels this way, as she has stated on numerous occasions that her songs are her children - well, she's not being a very good mother as she has been neglecting half her children for many years now.

It'll never happen. Too much of her popularity has stemmed from her Fleetwood Mac success and her solo career has not been as consistent from that perspective. If she were a true singer/songwriter type who did not care about her popularity as much, I could see her doing that. But we all know how much she loves the big stage and her status as a rock icon, so leaving her FM hits out the set is just not an option for her.

WRONG. No Sheryl Crow in DALLAS, and Stevie performed "Too Far From Texas" there, along with "Every Day", "Planets Of The Universe", "Bombay Sapphires", "Sorcerer" and "Fall From Grace".

NO Sheryl Crow.

NO Sheryl Crow.

Same goes for her August 2001 show in Denver - Stevie performed 6 songs from TISL including Bombay Sapphires & TFFT AND Sheryl Crow was nowhere in site.

So while Stevie is on record (In 1 interview from last summer) as saying that she will only do @3 new songs from IYD. I wouldn't necessarily read into that as law. Fact is Stevie performed 6 new songs on the majority of the TISL tour and only dropped a couple towards the end of that tour. And Stevie was very exuberant about that record. BUT I would rank her excitement for "In Your Dreams" to be even higher than TISL. She is clearly amazed at the end result-exhaulting it as one of her finest hours, IF NOT her finest work entirely. So we will have to wait and see after this Heart & Soul tour commences, but she could easily work in 5+ new songs in her set & still have room for all of her classic hits solo & Mac.

Two Kinds of Love
Whole Lotta Trouble
Alice

It's too bad she couldn't be nimble enough to swap out some of those songs for other songs on the album during the tour. Why should a set list be so set in stone? All the classic familiar songs were once new songs that people were hearing for the first time. In order to grow and progress you have to perform and sell the new songs, so 30 years down the road, you're not relying on songs you wrote and performed to death 30 years earlier! I hope Stevie has so much confidence in her new material that she will completely revamp her set list and include a large majority of her new album. Give the staple songs a good rest, and include older songs she's never performed live, like "Sable on Blonde. " It may surprise her that her fans will love it, and no one will be missing 'Stand Back." "Rhiannon." or "Dreams." I hope Dave Stewart will influence her in that direction.

Not to mention "Ooh My Love" and "Long Way to Go" made it to the rehearsal set. Plus, she did "No Spoken Word" and "Talk to Me" on that tour.

She's mixed it up before, I don't see why she can't do it again.

If Stevie chooses to focus more of her attention on playing the Mac songs for her live shows it would be nice if she included Gypsy, Sara, Silver Springs, Seven Wonders, Sisters of the Moon, Angel etc. At least include the ones that still get radio play.
If it's going to be greatest hits set than there is really no sense in excluding her best known songs, regardless of whether they are not usually performed at her solo shows

I was completely unaware, until now, that "Ooh My Love" and "Long Way to Go" were rehearsed. Does anyone have audio proof of that? I'd love to hear them.

Who said it's going to be a greatest hits set? Why should it be? Been there and done that for the last twenty years. I hope the set features mostly new songs (though it won't) and rarely performed if ever, solo stuff.

I really wish she wouldn't rely so heavily on her Fleetwood Mac songs. I understand how she needed those songs for her Bella Donna tour, to flesh out the set with some familiar songs. But she now has her own deep body of work to draw from, and a lot of it she has never performed. I would love it if she didn't perform any Fleetwood Mac songs. It would be a fresher, much better show!

If she wants to perform songs like Sisters of the Moon, she would have done it with Fleetwood Mac, which is context in which I would want to hear it.

Proof?

The Other Side Of The Mirror tourbook has a photo of a rehearsal set list with "Long Way To Go" and "Ooh My Love" on the list (along with "Juliet"), in the section showing Stevie and the band rehearsing.

Most people paying money to see Stevie perform would be disappointed without
Rhiannon", "Gold Dust Woman", "Landslide" and "Dreams". Stevie's performed them on TV solo ~ they're her songs!

I was disappointed in Houston & Austin in 1987 when "Gypsy" and "Rhiannon" were dropped from the Tango set, and even more in 1989 when "Rhiannon" was absent from The Other Side Of The Mirror tour. I'm not a "casual fan". My favourite songs are "Julia" and "If You Were My Love". But, in concert, I wanna see Stevie perform "Rhiannon"!

They are Stevie Nicks songs, Stevie Nicks hits. I praise Rhiannon Stevie will always perform them at every concert!

I assume that the majority of people who attend shows pay money to be there. My point is there are many long-standing, seasoned, older artists like Stevie. There are certain ones who don't (have to) rely on performing a particular set of hits (25 years-plus old) to satisfy their fans. They have a deep catalog of good songs, and they are not afraid to play them willing, knowing their true fans will accept and appreciate them.

Believe or not, some people are happy to enjoy a show for it is, and not for what you expect. It's the unexpected element, a difference, that makes a show special. Tom Petty is a good example of that. He performs whatever he wants. Yes, he plays a select portion of hits. But the set list is not carved in stone. Sometimes certain hits are performed, sometimes they are not. Either way, his fans aren't too concerned or are bitching about what they did not hear just because they paid money to be there.

I guess there is certain demographic of the Stevie fan base who just want her shows to be frozen in time. "It's all the same, it's all the same, it's all the same...Rhiannon!"
