However I do give them credit for going into the vault and doing a fan favorite. It just did not go over well at all.

I don’t even think the 2013-15 Sisters of the Moon was that bad. The arrangement musically stuck close to the recorded version which is exactly what I’d expect from this band at that point in time. Stevie’s choices vocally were definitely bland but so are most of her vocals in the last 20 years. I thought the repetitive “sister…sister…sister” was lame and the lack of the arrangement fans familiar with the song’s live performances on the Tusk and Mirage Tours was an expected letdown. If anyone thought this song was being resurrected 30+ years later and would remotely resemble the Mirage Tour Video performance, they were being delusional.
