Default A review of the "In Concert" video

I just posted this two hours ago, so I'm not sure if it'll show up for non-Epinions users quite yet. Since I know all of you love reading my 1,000+ word reviews!

I thought your review sucked. It read like an Amazon reviewer who was unfamiliar with the artist and the music.


The greatness of Stevie's White Winged Dove tour was her astonishment-to-her-own-self that she actually pulled it off. "Gold and Braid" was hedonism personified. She actually realized what "Gold Dust Woman" and "Sara" really meant to her at this point. And she really-only-truly understood "Edge of Seventeen" at these moments- every other time was just melodrama and/or conjecture- with a few exceptions.

It doesn't really matter. Stevie did her thing and she's done.

Why are you being so mean-spirited? Definitely not called for around here.

I enjoyed the review, but I do like Dreams!

This is the part of every response to everyone who writes a personal attack in response to something I wrote, and all I say is "big deal!" Unfamiliar with the artist or the music? What does a guy have to do to be a "true fan" around here anyway? Besides, the website I wrote the review for is intended for people looking for detailed reviews of products, not thousands of words of gushing chiffonheadism.

Dreams is almost heartbreaking. What's not to love? It's not Stevie's fault that Waddy sucks.

I have to chime in and say that this version of Dreams is amazing. when she screams "well, women they will come and darlin', they will go" - it's just magic. I find very little, if anything, to critcize about this concert other than the fact that they cut those other songs. also, you may want to re-read your review and correct a few grammatical mistakes. otherwise, it's a fairly interesting take on the video.

I'll fix some of the grammatical errors and update my review sometime this morning. MS Word's grammar check is the most goddamned obnoxious thing ever created by Microsoft. Every sentence with more than 20 words is "too long to process for sentence structure," it hates contractions, Waddy belongs in an "AC or DC" tribute band, and "Gold Dust Woman" is gender specific and should be changed to "Gold Dust Person!" Give me a break already.

This video would have been so much better if Stevie had worn something red during Sara.

Get over yourself BIG GIANT HEAD .....

Your review was inadequate- big deal.

One criticism and this is the result?? All of sudden your "true fan-dom" is being called into question?? I won't refer to the irony to follow...

Good thing you were detailed.....................
