Having said that, and taking note that the fiddle players in the band do, in fact, play their instruments (I've had two separate reports of at least one of them contacting people who played fiddle on the recordings in order to get some pointers on specific passages), it looks to me as

Not to be the type of cad who would pile on a delicate flower like Ms. Twain, but if Jon can pick out a vocal phrasing thing from the Maines gal in the Dixie Chicks that bugs him, I'll do the same for Shania. When she starts off a song, by saying, "cool" or "get it, boys" or something like that,

Clapton was embarrassing, and are we sure he and BB even rehearsed? That was a pretty lamo blues performance all around. As stated elsewhere, Clapton/King was a mess. Is it me, or is BB King mailing it in when he performs these numbers? I know that the man is an original, but he relies on
