I got to say the BD band.I like the line up now and miss Lenny.As Waddy is the engineer of the band.The band keeps on chugging along right on track.

Ok .As other artists have names for their bands.How come Stevie never came up with a name for her band .Or did she ever had a name for them.I can't recall.

The Wachtels or Wads. That should work.

Agreed! The Bella Donna "White Winged Dove" touring band were top notch musicians, with "Wild Heart" then "Rock A Little" a close 2nd and 3rd. The "In Your Dreams" band would land a respectable 4th in my estimation.

I can remember when it was first aired on HBO. I was totally blown away and Stevie was looking incredibly BEAUTIFUL! To this day it is my favorite VHS ever, a close second is The Dance.
The current IYD's band is tight and sounds great as well.

Yes I remember those days and nights I tuned in that late March and the month of April 1982 and watch every airing of the concert.We had no VCR at the time so I end up watching it as it aired.

During those times I recorded the sound track on to cassette and reel to reel tape.I still have those tapes somewhere.


On the second run which was in 1983 or 1984 I borrowed an old reel to reel video recorders like they had at school or the library from a friend.I copied that tape to VHS
in 1985 .Those tapes are somewhere.

The Showtime Rock a Little tour shows got recorded to VHS when it aired on Showtime.
