YES! Remember, I'm a soundman(specializing in monitors). I have a monitor mixer directly behind my keyboards.

Sounds like a personal problem. If I were in a cover(tribute-sorry!) band, playing Rhiannon, I think my first response to the soundman might be, "Hey, this singer's not bleating enough! Do you have a bleating patch in one of your FX units?!"

You do know that the sign for "perfect, stop there", is to close your fist, at them, right?

I did not know that! I usually just pop the okay sign. From now on, I will close my fist & shake it at him ... did you say?

But what if he punches me back?

I didn't say to shake it. And oddly, the fist is always presented "sideways".

I think we're talking about what Christine says before they start Songbird.

She says something like "too loud guys, too loud" and I assumed she was telling John and Lindsey to tone it down a bit. But probably she wasn't and well ..... actually it doesn't matter

There's quite a bit of that kind of stuff during this show, especially from the McVies. I think this may have been the show when right after "Second Hand News", Chris said "I guess I just wasn't cut out for playing the chair".

Somebody else was complaining that the Little Rock recording (I think?) didn't have any older tunes, but it's important to remember that these recordings are probably not complete.

You have to be very careful when you extrapolate concert set lists from recordings. You have to have a wide knowledge of other recordings from the same period in order to derive probable set lists. For example, someone listening to the recording of the first Hollywood Bowl night might conclude that they didn't play Sisters of the Moon, when that wasn't the case. Or if you listen to my recording of Stevie's set at the Toxics benefit, you'd have no idea that Stevie & Tom also sang Leather & Lace at the end of the concert.
