This is my 11th time seeing her and I'm still excited as ever. I've almost knocked over lamps spinning around the living room w/ m' shawls!

1. With Chris Issak, right?
They'll be here next month, I believe.

Have a good time tonight, Ronny. :-)

6. Chris was good.
A bit long for his set, but he was very good.

3. OMG OMG
I am SO J
I'm G with E.

My best friend saw her the other day and he said he cried like 4 times. The audience spent the whole time freaking out!!
I've seen her 6 times including the FM concerts but I can't see her this time because she's too far away and I can't drive. And this will be the best show ever!! Have a great time!!! :hug: :party: :hug: :party: :hug: :party:

8. She still amazes me.
This was my 11th Stevie and/or FM show.

She is just fantastic. I'm so glad that her sister-in-law Lori Nicks is back singing back up. She along with Sharon and Jana just blend vocally so beautifully.

She started with "Stand Back" and did just about every song I wanted to hear. She closed with "Beauty and the Beast" and Stevie sings the shit out of that song. I cried my ass off during "Landslide". She dedicated it to Lori's dad tonight. While she sang it there were pictures of Stevie as a kid and other pics of Stevie's wonderful father who passed away in 2005 and pics of her mom and brother it was beautiful.

I love that woman so much.

17. Stand back, stand back. In the middle of my room..
My friend called me for Stand Back and I heard the whole song. I mean I was on the opposite coast and it was over the phone but I was surprised how good it sounded, I could hear all her words and the crowd freaking out. I was sad about not seeing her but it's been an exciting tour for me anyway lol!
"Landslide"s one my friend bawled at too.
He took two people with him who are turning into late Stevie fans, especially after that show.

14. I had a great time.
Good friends and a good show. The show was at the Greek Theater here in LA. My first time there, a beautiful place.

I've been there a few times to see
Carlos Santana.It is a beautiful place,
and the acoustics are great.

I'm so glad it survived the Griffith Park fire.

I'm happy to hear you had a good time.

:hi:

15. I loved the the show.
I was just telling the ol' ball and chain ..... seeing Stevie really grounds me in a way. I've seen her from 1979 off and on 'till today ... I plan on seeing her again as long as she wants to perform. Stevie's shows really fill my heart. Yeah, I'd love to be up front near the stage, but that's cool if I don't. She's a performer that really seems to LOVE singing. All of us fans in the seats in the back had a great time. Being with other Stevie fans is something I really can't describe. It's really just a peacefull love. I know I sound really corny right now, but that's how I've felt over the last few times when I've seen her. She's part of my life. I'll probably never meet her, but I really feel she knows that fans like myself are "there" and she gets that.

19. Glad you enjoyed it.
I've seen her 3 times & it gets better every time. So I don't think you sound corny at all. :hug:

Stevie is going to be in OKC on the 30th. I bought tickets back in March but something else came up. I'm probably going to give the tickets away.

10. Oh my god Hedi ...
It was so GOOD! Stevie Nicks is just perfection. Her voice is better each time I see her.

I've only seen her once that I didn't care for the show back in 1983. Maybe because I went with a shitty boyfriend. But that's another story.

She really LOVES to perform. Her set changes over the years and she pulls out songs that she doesn't do often. But she just LOVES to sing. You can feel it.

A Stevie Nicks concert is just magic for me. Stevie's fans are loyal and have the best time. Just like the line from "Landslide" .... "Time makes you bolder, children get older and I'm getting older too". That song always gets me. I was 15 when I fell in love with her. I'm 46 now and I'm happy to grow old with her. I've never met her face to face, but every time I see her in concert it's like still seeing an old friend. She's given me so much love and joy in my life and I know I'll see her again and feel that same love she gave to me tonight.

11. You're 46?1!!!1!!
:wow: (That's a compliment.)

Thank you for the report. I've _gotta_ see Stevie in concert one day. (Checkin' now to see if she's touring Europe this summer. :) )

12. Yup 46 ....
Edited on Sun May-20-07 02:58 AM by ronnykmarshall
Hard for me to believe too. My mom can't believe that her little baby is 46! My guess is that Stevie will do a tour in Europe. I hope so. I'd love to get your report !!! xoxoxo
