I heard she did ALL THE KING'S HORSES at this show. Is this true, or just another silly rumor?

She did adlib during songs..
But I am not entirely farmiliar with ATKH...so I dont know if the lyrics were adlibed or not [EO17 and I think two other songs she added some extra lyrics at the end...]
but I do know she did not perform any entirely new songs AT ALL...which was quite dissapointing.
but as far as I know David, it is just a silly rumour.....

I thought it was a great show, yeah the same old set list whatever. If you've been thinking about going but don't like the set list, don't let that stop you. Stevie is having so much fun on stage that it carries over into the crowd. This is the ninth tour I've seen of Stevie's since 1986 and it's one of her best. As she said last night, she's nearing 60 and she'll do what she wants!!

I love how she said that, how what shes doing isnt 'show bussinesslike' but shes almost 60 so why should she care.

that made me love her even more.

Stevie is amazing. and this show proved it to me even more!

I had a great time at the Mohegan show! To be honest, I was pretty excited to find that there was no opening act. I was sitting waiting for the show to start and realized that Stevie's scarves were already tied around the mic stand and that the stage seemed ready for her set.

I haven't seen Stevie in a few years, I missed the last tour and the one before that, so the setlist being pretty much exactly the same as it has been for awhile didn't really bother me that much. Highlights of the set for me were "Gold Dust Woman", "Stand Back" and "Landslide", which got the crowd roaring and beating their feet afterwards. "Sorceror" totally rocked as well, I need to pay more attention to that song! Stevie looked absolutely fabulous (I especially loved her top hat) and was her wonderful sassy self ("this isn't very showbiz like, but I'm almost 60 years old, what do I care? Like I care!") and reminded us again that she was the breadwinner and playing "Cinderelli" in those early years with Lindsey while he sat home writing his "angsty" and "miserable" songs.

The best for me was toward the end of the show. Since I was there by myself, it was easy for me to just bee-line toward the front of the stage when I realized "Edge of 17" was starting. As I got up there, a security guard pretended to stop me but he really didn't seem to care and I plopped myself right in front of Waddy for the last three songs. SO fabulous! I have never been that close at a concert, Stevie or otherwise. Got lots of Waddy in my face, was able to rock out to "Edge" and "Rock and Roll" and "Beauty and the Beast" was especially gorgeous being so close to Stevie and so much a part of the action. Plus, I got to shake Stevie's hand during the Edge Walk, which I really didn't think would ever actually happen!

I think there may have been a few Ledgies up there too, I was the one in the gray top, so if you were up there, say hi! I had a great time at the show and I'm glad I got to go!

Hi Kathy,
yes tour merchandise was the same except no tour book and they brought out the poster which i though was limited the herbert worthington pic of stevie in black with the feather headress it was the cover of the standback remix cd single cover they brought that poster back and the photo shirt from the cover of crystal visions that she was the same except it didnt have the citys she played in 2007 just on back of shirt just said Stevie Nicks but basically everything esle was the same baseball cap which i bought and the poster was so happy to see that poster cause I missed out on it last year when they played mohegan sun they didn't have that poster.

my guess with the new tour coming up in june i would think she would have new merchandise cause of the soundstage dvd /cd package coming out in July 1st.

Peace,

Steve

Did Stevie wear her signature wet T-shirt?
