Wouldn't bankrupt me, but it seems a bit silly for 6 songs that I never heard before. Ooops. Subtract At Last, SKOL, and Landslide, as I bet she will recycle those and it means three. That 2k a song.

Looking like a foolish expenditure of money.
Well, I would be going to see Australia and NZ, which I have always wanted to do. But, the timing is not great for me then. So, I am most like not going.

Tell me about it.

Let's compare $7,000.00 with no guarantee of anything fresh to $25.00 for a DVD and/or free possible show recordings. I'm planning on keeping my $6,975.00....

I can't even afford to think about going. This concert is clearly for Australians, rich people and crazy fans with credit cards.

At least we will have great overdubbed vocals to look forward to.....instead of tired, uninspired vocals in person.

I'm not really loving it either. Most of that can be blamed on the bad lighting (I sure hope this wasn't taken by a professional photographer) but the make-up is off also. She still looks darn cute though, if you are willing to look past what I just mentioned.

Pffffffffft!

Yeah, the pic leaves a lot to be desired. She is looking her age here, which is not a bad thing, I'm just used to all those "touched up" "good lighting" pics of her. She clearly was not groomed for this shot.

It's the whoreanus hair that is most offensive. The rest? Meh. But the hair is criminal.

Speaking of gas:

I went into the 7-11 gas station the other day
and asked for five dollars worth of gas.

The clerk farted and gave me a receipt!

"She's still got it!", raves complacent Stevie Nicks fans throughout the world.
I don't consider myself complacent... I'm just not unreasonable in my expectations or interested in ****ting all over everything the woman does.

Stevie's touring Australia solo for the first time in 20 years, and she'll be performing a half dozen songs with a full orchestra backing... that's something out of the ordinary and worth being excited about.

I haven't noticed any of the Australian fans pissing or moaning.

I'm amazed that people are actually considering going to these.

you know what it is? it's like, after you've had a long day and your makeup has started smearing, falling off etc... and you HAVE to be somewhere like, NOW for something really important and you have no time to wash off your face and start over with nice, new makeup, so you clean up the smear marks and you put new makeup over it.... that's what it looks like.... and the lighting is bad.

Ditto. It must be the angle and the eye make-up.
