Well, it's also in the (European) Tango tourbook so it could be a very early Tango shot or maybe RAL? It looks more early Tango to me.

It's Rock A Little era...they used this photo on one of the tour t-shirts.

Are you sure it was used on a T-Shirt?


I honestly don't think it looks anything like Stevie.

Maybe it wasn't on a shirt, I might have confused it with the head shot they used on one of the RAL shirts...but that pic was used somewhere -- it's driving me crazy now!!!

Really, Rock a Little? It doesn't look anywhere near a RAL era to me! ha ha, shows what I know I know it was used on the shirts for the Mirror tour....

I took the 1st pick from the rock star baseball card thingy and just photoshopped it:


here's the uncut pic:

I think I saw it on Chris's site once, so I am pretty sure it would still be there. I'll have to check it out~

yes, it was used on a t-shirt, which I have....I think the photo really captures her...one of my favorites...

Didn't she use that white tambourine on the 1988 portion of the Tango Tour?

I have one of those baseball cards. It's one from 1979 from "Tusk". And on the back of the card it's got all the bands info on the album and all that stuff.

The hair isn't RAL tour. It was a bit shorter then, more layered and something close to (but not quite) a mullet style- you know, longer in the back than on top or the front.
Plus, she was doing heavy kohl around the eyes then. I'd say this is a studio shot from TOSOTM era made to look like a stage shot, or a photo from a dress rehearsal. Which would explain to me why it was on the tour merchandise. But I could be dead-wrong.

P.S, I bought my t-shirt (a black one) and handed my $ to Christopher Nicks. My first thought was "WTF. Why's HE working the t-shirt booth??"
That's an awful big responsibility to lay on her little brother. Hope the stress of it isn't going to make him do a Christopher Ciccone and write a tell-all book.

Like I said, that photo is in the TINT tourbook so that isn't possible. Her hair also looks early TITN tour, so I'm just sticking with that.

EDIT:
Here are 2 TITN photo's that look a lot like that photo, same dress and if you look closely you can even see the pink & blue extensions in het hair:

Whoops, I must have missed the TITN reference, sorry. Ok, well than that makes perfect sense too. By the time the OSOTM tour merchandise was created, that pic was already 'out there' yet recent enough to not look like 70's or early 80's nostalgia so they went with it. My theory of a 'Mirror' tour rehearsal pic didn't have much weight, since that would be a real rushed job to get the pics developed and then silkscreened before the first show. Because gawd knows, the tour merchandise is done with perfection and an eye for detail.

I just dont' remember this pic in the TITN tourbook. But then, I don't have mine anymore to even refer to- all tourbooks, scrapbooks, cassettes and drawings lost forever in one of my moves.

Oh God, don't you hate that? I have lots of items that got lost in moves too.

This is the era I least like. She looks so bloated and puffy and her eyes say "help I am in misery" it is very sad to see her this way.
