So, Rhona is back in..... :o Here is her tweet: In rehearsal with En Vogue... Getting ready for our dates... See u there! I like Rhona in the group. Not as much as Dawn, but she's pretty amazing as well. I hope that means another multi-city tour. They should film one of their concerts this year and release it on a CD/DVD.

Good I'm use to hearing them sing in 4 parts. Rhona blends well with the ladies.

I saw them live as a trio a couple years ago and they killed it. Worth every penny!

The Pittsburgh show was fantastic!!!!!! Rhona was there instead of Maxine, so Cindy and Terry did most of the lead vocals, but all of them can SIIIIIIIING!!! I was just blown away by the power of their voices. The only gripe was that their mics weren't loud enough for the opening medley, so it was hard to understand them until Terry motioned for the engineers to turn them up. But they were so sweet and humble.
Set list (as close as I can remember to the correct order): Love Don't Love You You Don't Have to Worry Lies My Lovin' (You're Never Gonna Get It) No No No (Can't Come Back) Riddle Sad But True Aria by Yanni Don't Let Go (Love) Whatta Man Hold On

I wonder why Maxine isn't on tour. SHIT!!! Here they go with this bullshit again! Just like clockwork - Dawn leaves, they turn into a trio, somebody else leaves, the trio is two original members plus one replacement, second person that left after Dawn returns, but somebody else leaves.. UGH!!! I'm so over En Vogue at this point. ::Goes back to the SWV thread::

I think it's because they were with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. I was a little surprised they didn't do the entire Love Suite.

I remember reading in TVGuide that they were all set to film a mini-movie for that Love Suite, w/an Alice in Wonderland theme.

That would've been awesome!! I agree about wishing it would've done better. I thought it was stronger than EV3.

I hope you all are ready! According to Dawn there will now be TWO versions of En Vogue. One with Terry, Cindy and Rhona. The other with Dawn, Maxine and two new girls. Dawn, Maxine and the two new girls are also going on tour soon. Check out Dawn's announcement via twitter today twitter.com/dawnrobinson_

After seeing Cindy and Terry live, I would rather they be the ones to carry on the group legacy anyway. Not that Dawn and Maxine aren't great singers but Cindy & Terry have larger ranges and much more versatility.

Terry can sing better than Max and Dawn anyway. I see Dawn couldn't make it on her own AGAIN and had to try and recruit poor Maxine to be a part of her act. I guess that's why Maxine wasn't apart of their most recent tour. But yeah. MESS.COM!

Plays 'Funky Divas' and thinks of what could have been. They were poised to take it to the next level when "Dont Let Go (Love)" became a hit. "EV3" was highly anticipated until Dawn spilt. She's talented but she brings problems. I have to agree, their legacy is kinda ruined, which is all they really had at this point.

Probably a 4th girl for Terry and Cindy too since they usually sing in 4 parts.
The BIG question is if/when they get a major appearance booking like Essence, BET and etc WHICH En Vogue will do the performance(s)??
I remember Dennis Edwards tried something similar with the Temptations many years ago and got sued.

So, last night I gave Dawn some shade, she shot back. I don't care, I meant what I said! There should never be 2 En Vogue's that is just f*cking tired! lol
@nicky715 @dawnrobinson_ That EV name should be retired. For real.
Dawn Robinson @dawnrobinson_ @nicky715 That EV name holds value. For real.

Okay according to DAWN the En Vogues are:
En Vogue featuring Cindy & Terry
En Vogue featuring Dawn & Max
Dawn & Max will be going on tour soon and will be posting dates soon as they get them.
The reason this foolishness may work is because they ALL sing lead on hit songs. This could not work for any other groups.
I bet Dawn's husband is managing her and Max.
They are really too old for this mess. They need put their egos aside and keep it moving.
