I think it's a bit presumptuous to say "it's time to stop". What if she loves touring and hates recording? It's HER career and her life- we don't get to control how she chooses to live it.
I agree, and I've seen every tour starting with RAL as well, so that's a helluva lotta Stand Backs!! We haven't even gotten In Your Dreams, chalk full of 13 newly recorded tracks & probably a bonus track, and people are already sayin' Stevie go back into the recording studio. Yes, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but you also have the choice to just enjoy the new record, and not attend the tours. Because strap yourself in, Stevie is going to go for all the touring $$ while she still can, even if some presume she doesn't need the money. And next stop ahead is another FM tour in the next couple of years. We can only hope and pray that Stevie & Lindsey agree on an outside producer and record one more FM album.
On the other hand I can empathize with some who became fans since The Dance, because there's been such long periods with no new material. Having been a fan beginning with Bella Donna, I was lucky to have a decade worth of new releases almost every year except 84' & 86'.

And even on those "off" years we still got fantastic new songs, i.e., "Violet and Blue" and "Battle of the Dragon." The 80s were great years to be a Fleetwood Mac/Stevie fan.

Hell YES! How could I forget those songs. And we should add, in addition to V&B in 84', we also got the Marilyn Martin cover of "Sorcerer", in which Stevie literally takes over the 2nd half of the song.

^ I just saw it too - I like it live much better than the studio version.

it might be nice if she look at or monitored her on-line presence .. Website instead of a guy who gave up years ago and her FACEBOOK that an intern at the record company runs ... Cher has started using it she even asked for people to submit songs (for her Tour this year ) they want to hear ,, that are not hits she already knows that .

I agree with you - it would be nice. But not likely to happen. Stevie's infamous for shunning things that she deems "high f*cking tech."

Like, for the rest of the tour? Or...

It's actually much less pitchy than I predicted it would be. However, the entire vocal is flat, flat, flat. I don't get what the point of her fancy little ear monitor is if it doesn't help her out with these issues?

Despite my vocal grievances, I adore her passion in this performance . You can see it in her eyes, you can see it in her movements... she's really into it! It's been quite some time since we've seen Stevie get into one of her songs!
