This sounds really interesting. I wonder if she's doing what she did a few years ago when she was label-free and asked us Nessaholics to come out and scream, cheer, etc for her in the right places.

Because this is only an industry event, does that mean that no "non-industry people" can enter? I don't really have a clue about these things.

what is KPRI? TV or a radio station? would that mean there is the potential to hear/see the concert even though we are not there..?I guess I could google it myself..

Can someone make sure they will broadcast the VC performance? like, someone ask the radio station or something.
And btw, should we look out for Stevie's in case V features??

From what I read it sounds as though the station is going to have a DJ there, but they likely won't be playing the performances as they happen. They are running a blog (http://www.kprifm.com/pages/sunset_sessions_blog) of interviews and song performances, though. I'll keep an ear out tonight, I found the station as streamable one on my phone.  :)

ok so, im up again, so sleepy...

before going to bed i asked about the broadcast and this is the answer i got: We recorded a bunch of sessions with @KPRIfm and @sounddiegoblog. They're being posted online as fast as we can get them up. @KPRIfm is broadcasting live from the event, but they're not broadcasting the event live, if that makes sense...

so, they are not broadcasting the event live on radio, but maybe we will get videos, pics, and interviews later on. I hope so!
Let's keep an eye on the official sites and: http://www.nbcsandiego.com/blogs/sounddiego/ and http://www.kprifm.com/pages/sunset_sessions_blog Some pics of Stevie are up already :)

i think im going back to bed..................

So exciting!

"Carousel" with Stevie? You know, I'm so glad she has Stevie in her life. I think she helps balance her & gives her the talks that she needs. I don't mind if Stevie is on a new song because their friendship is so genuine and pure. Stevie is cool.

she said golden ring again, unlike diamond at the 2/14 show.
also added a "you and  me" near the end
hinting at some mixed vocals on the album version, perhaps?
also, yay more Ari  ;D

I hope we get to hear more from this performance. especially the songs with Stevie, that sounds like a rare unique recording opportunity, I really hope someone got it  :-\

oh my god. /initial reaction

vanessa sounds so incredibly good at these sunset sessions.

also, the saddest, most wistful rendition of "a thousand miles" i've ever heard. this song has never made me so incredibly sad. heart-stopping within the first twenty seconds. it's so much softer than i'm used to.

Vanessa sounds amazing, and what Stevie says at the beginning of Carousel is so nice.   :D

After listening to all of the recordings and not just squeeing over Carousel, it definitely seems like V brought her A-game to the Sunset Sessions. Seems like it was a great set! It is also exciting to get such great quality video.

Pretty sure it was a slip. It probably doesn't help "white rabbits on the run" is a line in Carousel. VC has referred to the album as just "Rabbits on the Run" several times.

She said she was grateful for "A Thousand Miles" because it allowed her to completely peel from the major label system she is in. Hmmm... did something happen? If anything, you would think "A Thousand Miles" let her stay in the major label system.

:DD



oh my god. /initial reaction

vanessa sounds so incredibly good at these sunset sessions.

also, the saddest, most wistful rendition of "a thousand miles" i've ever heard. this song has never made me so incredibly sad. heart-stopping within the first twenty seconds. it's so much softer than i'm used to.

I agree. This version is really great.

ATM gave her the financial backbone to break away from the major label system if she wanted creative control of her music, which she did (and was the main reason she left A&M in the first place). There was a story she told once in concert about how A&M basically told her that she would do everything they tell her, or they were going to let her go, so she left. Without the bankroll ATM made, a decision like that is made much more difficult. If V has invested her money well she probably can be set on royalties from ATM for a while.

I haven't felt that way for that song in SUCH a long time. I am so happy that she looks so happy and refreshed and just ready to go! I loved Carousel, it was AMAZING. Oh and again for IDWTBAB. New fav song. :D

I agree. It was the best performance of the song I've ever heard. And maybe, that's the way it really was before the commercialism of the song.

It was just pure passion and love.  ;)

Have you guys noticed that Vanessa's singing sounds a bit different recently? In a good way! Like, it sounds gentler, like on the high notes, I don't know, it's like powerful but vulnerable at the same time. To explain it better, like when she performed A Thousand Miles at the Sunset Sessions compared to when she's sang it in the past, it sounds more tranquil or something. What do you guys think?

I know what you mean. You can hear it in "Bride" when she sings "And I don't need a house on a hill, swing on a tree...". I like this more, because she usually shouts her way through songs and it was starting to get annoying.

I haven't really been posting much, but I was checking these boards at least once a week in the "hibernation period" between albums - and now that the album is about to take off and the boards are constantly being updated with news, I'm on here pretty much all the time!
I love how close-knit the nessaholics are - it's really lovely to feel a part of something so special. And I appreciate so much all the effort people are putting in to share new recordings, videos and updates with everyone.
I love being part of this community :)

My theory on that is she was surrounded by musicians and people who will really appreciate her. Not that she wants to impress them, but she knows they most likely won't just talk the whole time and really pay attention to what she has to offer.  Very unlike the concert I was at a week ago where most of the people just wanted a free concert and maybe handful of fans were out there.   the ATM version does sound like she is singing different and it seems very much like the style she's singing on the new album (from what we have heard on the video at the website).  More angelic, if that could ever happen!  I think with each album her voice has matured and each album has it's own sound.

The internet is amazing, isn't it? I uploaded about 40 videos from Sunset Sessions, and was planning on going back to title all the videos (or con Matt the potential intern into doing it, aka Matt PI), and I wake up to find that 41 people have already watched my video of Vanessa Carlton and Stevie Nicks. How did they even find it titles 8471 or whatever? I dunno. Regardless, I've added more titles and it's pretty obvious that Vanessa Carlton has some ravenous fans because they're eating them up.

Yeah, I noticed that necklace before. She used to wear it a lot more. It's really pretty :)

and she wore it on another video someone posted...the one from VH1 where she names her top video picks.  I am making it my mission to find a necklace like that!

Wow, she wears it a lot!
I want one too!!!
Ikr?? I really want one now haha!

Oh and Sarab, tell me if you find one?

I am in love with "Carousel". I've been listening to it repeatedly.

For those of you interested in the half-moon necklace, Stevie gives them to all her special friends. She's been doing it since the 70's.

OOOOO that is so wonderful!  Do you know where does she gets them?

I'm thinking of trying small botiques and maybe the goodwill.  Also, we have a lot of summer art festivals, I'm thinking someone might make something similar.

I just did a search on The Ledge (Fleetwood Mac forum) and twitter, and everyone said that is the best place to get the half-moon necklace.

Good luck! :)

By the way, here's a link to a thread that has pictures of Stevie wearing different variations of the necklace through out the years: http://ledge.fleetwoodmac.net/showthread.php?t=44611&highlight=moon+necklace

And the moon symbolizes femininity, right?

Vanessa looks so happy.

You could tell she was on a (natural) high when Stevie came out. Vanessa was looking at her smiling throughout their performance.

On the website where people make stuff to sell  I think it's Etsy.com or something like that, there are people who make them.  There were some for pretty good prices. We should all get one!
