This reminds me of Silver Springs when Stevie was crying. She might have continued to indulge in a good weep, but once she realized that Lindsey was singing all over the place, she thought "oh man," pulled herself together and finished.

I really think people are reading into this way too much. A little controversy to pass the time til IYD I suppose

Most important things are she is doin L&L and she sounds awesome (even on a bad recording on youtube) Hopefully she will consider some of her other lesser performed songs for HER tour.

[QUOTE=MacMan;960419]She needs to chill out a little more.. she seems so "by the book"... Gotta be perfect! Can't mess up! Relax... it's all fun... An audience likes a little humanity in a peformance.

I'll never forget the night I saw her on the Unleashed Tour in Manchester NH. While singing Storms, she actually forgot the words in the second stanza

Lindsey kept on strumming, the audience kept right on singing, and after two lines, Stevue just shrugged, smiled, and said :I got it now!" it was one of her really endearing moments, especially since the audience remembered the lyrics

Rod may not have sounded "excellent" on this performance, but to me he did something very, very brilliant. I think he "coaxed" Stevie into performing a beautiful song she has not included in her setlist in about two decades. After the first verse and he just gestured toward her while the audience applauded. She sounded absolutely amazingly beautiful and it was refreshing to hear it. Maybe she could keep it in the set list and sing all the verses herself or just do harmonies of it with Lori and Sharon if she doesn't like Rod's part on it. She performed it with Lori and Sharon during the Bella Donna tour. SHE sounded fantastic performing L & L. Wish I was there to see it live.

Didn't she do it in 2001 with Sheryl and on the Two Voices tour with Don in 2005??

Anywho, Rod did much better tonight

I am loving these versions of Leather & Lace! Rod did sound better the second night. Stevie needs to put this in her set . It's been too long.

Agreed... she just sings it so incredibly beautifully. Something about her older voice just makes it all the more poignant and special too. Hearing this one song is totally thawing my frigid heart!

thats a real shocker you said something negative about stevie

gtfo she sounds very good on L&L

StandbackStevie · #**117** 04-07-2011, 04:32 AM

I have to say the duets are not that great with her and Rod I really think they should just do there own sets each instead the duets they are doing are terrible it especially the Leather and Lace they both look like they can't wait for this tour to be over with. Stevie sounds great as always Rod seems lost they both seem lost during there duets. They didn't rehearse for this tour and it shows glad I passed this tour hopefully Stevie's headlining tour is awesome.

I agree with you on this one I love rod too i think they should have rehearsed more than they did which they lacked in rehearsing and it shows thank god I didn't waste my money on this tour.

This is so much better than the Philly performance! Both Rod AND Stevie improved tremendously! I saw the soundcheck in Philly and Stevie was worried about performing it that night. As they say "practice makes perfect"!

I knew they would be better. They are both total pros in the music business, and they care about their music. Yep, it's about practice.
