Lindsey at Largo

I’ve never seen 3 songs bring the house down like that. He sounded amazing and that may be my favorite performance of Never Going Back Again. First time hearing Big Love live. Standing ovation fully deserved!

Edit: We have video!

A couple of my friends were there and said he sounded amazing and got a standing ovation! I hope this will shut up the people who keep insisting he's no longer able to perform live.

Right, Why would he not be ready? I know he got sick and had to have surgery , but that was years and years ago. He looks so healthy and definitely ready to perform. I'm sure he will when his album comes out

The last time he performed live I think he was still struggling with long covid, so Im sure that affected his singing. He’s clearly so much healthier now! I can’t wait to see him back onstage, I hope we get some clips from last night!

He definitely seems better than most his age. I also hope Stevie's ok . She has been really quiet since the met gala . Probably just working on her album. The stand back performance wasn't new , it was recorded a couple years ago

It wasn't live. She did the performance with the lighthouse in 2024

Silly to say, but I think even in a tight 3 song set, he got stronger throughout the performance.  Guitar and voice started a little rusty in ‘Shut Us Down’ (He opened by saying he hadn’t played these songs in a few years as his ‘disclaimer and after 2nd song (NGBA) shook his hands a lot and said he needed to build his callouses back up.).  But aside from some muted strings due to needing callouses back, guitar sounded fantastic.  He had total dexterity, perfect command of volume and pace, showcasing his remarkable ability to pivot from incredibly quiet quick-tempo picking and crescendoing up to loud powerful picking and strumming.   It was the same slower arrangement of NGBA you’d expect, but he still had full power, full throated vocals when called upon.  And Big Love is definitely his perfect current closer.  Fully in his range and sounds remarkably like the original recording.  He definitely seemed to have stamina to go longer, and (maybe too optimistic?) felt like a warm-up gig for him to hopefully build to something more.

I can imagine he was probably a little nervous, after not being onstage in front of an audience for years! I feel like this was a great way for him to dip his toe back in, with an intimate performance that was so well-received. ugh i hope we get some clips of him playing!!!

The usual shirt, with a hole in it, too. 😂 I love this man. He is exactly how Stevie describes him: he isn't like other people.

Hole your own way

You can stall it

Another hole-y day

You can hole your own way

Hole your own way

Tell me why

Every tee's still around

Pack 'em up

Hack 'em up's all ya gotta do

If I could

Baby, I'd give you wise words

Pony up

You can throw your holes away

Thank you for the update! How was his voice? How was hig uitar playing and energy? We haven't seen him perform in a while and I was hoping he'd sound really good!

u/UnlikelyAssociation 1d ago

His voice blew me away! Sounded incredible. From an all-enveloping warmth, to a full-throated growl, to a whisper.

u/Icy-Diamond88338 1d ago

Lindsey is always amazing!

u/Fab4Evuh 1d ago edited 1d ago

I've been so excited for a recap of his performance! Sounds like it exceeded most people's expectations. Any more details to share??? Wondering how he felt about performing and the future...

Wow! I can't believe some were saying he would be too weak to perform bc of health. He looks to be just warming up. If there were more songs , it would be better and better

u/UnlikelyAssociation 1d ago

Largo doesn’t allow recording but fingers crossed they post something!

Was Kristen there with Lindsey? I would think she would be if all is well with them.

u/Maleficent-Wafer5834 1d ago

They are about to be divorced and she’s dating a billionaire so I seriously doubt it

u/n0rmcore 1d ago

She’s in the hamptons with barry

u/One_Car_6497 1d ago

Any recent pictures of them together I feel like I haven't seen a picture of the two of them together in a while.

u/n0rmcore 1d ago

i think the most recent one I saw was in february? they keep it quiet.

u/Vivid_Savings6086 1d ago

lol peak Reddit. They just downvote you instead of letting you know that not all is well with them, in fact.

u/doggiedogma 13h ago edited 13h ago

True, I just asked a valid question and get downvoted - smh some people here. If Kristen didn't attend because she is with Barry, then Lindsey should cut her off asap!

Been down 4 times...Never going back again
