Happy Birthday "white winged dove" video/performance

'Twas 23 years ago tonight that Stevie gave her final performance for this "very short tour." Although i wasn't there to see it live, i DID see it a few months later when it was broadcast on HBO when i was the ripe age of 12! SHE cast a spell on me then.....and i WON'T forget her.

So, I want everyone to go home tonight and watch it in celebration!!!

I can never get the tambo dance to time right. I know it is two taps to the right....two taps to the left....but the "pathway...ending with a doorway" and "all these years" parts are so hard to get. I'm a dork.

A truly great performance, indeed. I love every minute of it. I used to know the GDW twirls and spider-fingers, and used to practice them with my favorite blue velvet chenille throw...

My favorite parts of the show are when Jimmy Iovine comes onstage to play tom-toms during Sara, the FABULOUS Roy Bittan piano solos on G&B and Rhiannon, and Bobbye Hall -- every second they show her on screen. Best ... percussionist ... ever!!!

What a shame that we're having to dig out our dusty and now-warped 25-year old VHS copies of this, instead of listening to it in 5.1 surround on a remastered DVD version, which has been expanded to include the "Leather & Lace" video and the extra songs that were cut from the concert.

Then i am too (was that ever disputed? ) because i do the exact same thing. The two taps mess me up sometimes... plus, you HAVE to sing along at the same time
Amber "sometimes rhythmically challenged" G.

you're all forgetting about the high kicks too...and the dosey do away we go...swing your partner (waddy) round and round....

my favorite moment is the spasms she does at the end of the song in response (or in sync) to waddy's guitar.

i also love her trying to kiss bob glaub...could his head stop bobbing
(and no pun intended) for just one second in that concert?

I have never seen this video.

WAAAHHHH...LOL.

I do have a small mpeg of Gold & Braid though. I love it so much...hmmm I don't see what's so hard about the tambo dance myself I love the high kicks and when she does the crouching down booty shake....damn now I want that f-ing video!

Mapquest? the high kicks aren't hard, it's the "double tap, other side, and back, then THROW" while singing. or, maybe it's really easy, and i just can't do it
