Henley/Nicks Tour Update

[HenleyFan]

We're slowly hearing more dates for this tour. Wouldn't an official announcement be great? Here's what we have so far:

6/3 Philadelphia, PA Wachovia Center On Sale 4/23

6/4 Holmdel, NJ PNC Bank Arts Center On Sale 4/23

6/30 & 7/1 Atlantic City, NJ Borgata Casino On Sale 4/30

7/9 Chicago, IL Tweeter Center On Sale 5/9

7/16 New Orleans, LA New Orleans Arena On Sale 5/16


We're also hearing they're going to do VIP tickets through I Love All Access like Don and the Eagles have done in the past. Don't know if that will include a meet and greet, though.

Yes an official announcement would be MUCH appreciated from either the Nicks or Henley camp...

I need to start making plans, deciding where I'm going, etc etc. It looks like this is going to turn out just like Stevie's Vegas shows, no official announcement until all the dates are on ticketmaster and going on sale the next day..lol

Thanks so much for posting here! I'm wondering why they're playing where they're playing. Fleetwood Mac didn't even sell out the Wachovia. Why Wachovia and not Tweeter in Camden?? :confused:

[Tango]

Thank you for the news! Wachovia? Indoors for better sound or maybe to protect Stevie's voice as much as possible. Lots of arenas. Between Henley/Eagles fans and Nicks/Fleetwood Mac fans this tour should do quite well. This tour, as short as it seems to be given the Eagles tour schedule and Don's solo work, should go great. Reading the liner notes on Don's and Stevie's albums reveals they have a lot of band and back up singers in common in the past (ha! even Sheryl Crow!), and they've done quite a few benefits together over the years. I'm really looking forward to seeing what they will put together. Sure, there's going to be some "givens," but, especially with Don being 1/2 of this duo, there could be some surprises. Stevie did "At Last" and a few other numbers for Don's benefits.

Then they should play the Spectrum as it is much smaller. PNC Bank is outdoors, Borgata is outdoors and I believe the Tweeter Center in Chicago is as well. Something just isn't adding up, IMO. I mean, yes, i'm happy this will give people a chance to see Stevie that aren't able to make it to Vegas but I just find the whole thing...odd :shrug:

Great :distress: I wonder how much those will be? Frankly, I am sick of paying a lot of money just to be in the first few rows. I really wish that they would give the fans a break.

[David]

Reading the liner notes on Don's and Stevie's albums reveals they have a lot of band and back up singers in common in the past (ha! even Sheryl Crow!), and they've done quite a few benefits together over the years.Remember that Sanctuary for Illegals benefit they did in September 1985? Stevie, Don, Jackson Browne, etc. It was a few days after the same lineup did a show at Universal for one of Don's environmental causes at the time, Mulholland Tomorrow.

[kato]

Don't you mean Nicks/Henley Tour Update?
lol

[77Rumours77]

well I have heard that offical announcements are always made on a Monday. So we should have an announcement by tomorrow! YEA! Lets hope :D

[ShangriLaTroubl]

Borgata is outdoors and I believe the Tweeter Center in Chicago is as well


The Borgata no longer has the outdoor concert area...only an indoor "events center". They reportedly built onto the casino where the outdoor concert venue was..

Is that true.

[77Rumours77]

Is that true.

The past has proven it to me... Boston was announced on a monday, I THINK U2 was as well. 2004 Fleetwood Mac was too (right?)

I have heard that from many sources and it would make sence b'cuz there are shows going on sale this saturday.

[no_spoken_word]

Well I would HOPE an official recognition of this tour would happen before shows start to go on sale on the 23rd, but who knows?

I haven't been down there recently to see what they did to the fabulous field the FM concert was on (we were all a little surprised about that setup). I wonder if they'll be in the events center or the music box. One seats about 3,700 and the other, 1,000. For that kind of money, i'd hope everyone has an excellent seat.

i know that was a big joke...reminds me of a big giant highschool football field or something. plus tons of people were in the parking lot watching for free.

My parents went with me to Atlantic City, but didn't go to the show. We had a room at the Borgatta. After they had dinner that night, while I was at the show, they watched the last few songs up on the roof of the parking garage!

:D that's cool for them.

what did u think about the whole atmosphere?

[77Rumours77]

i checked a lot of the websites and got nothing.. hopefully we'll know more soon! :D

[catinthedark]

WAH!!! Nothing near me yet!

(And it IS all about me)


Seriously, though, I'm betting we'll get the official tour annoucement tomorrow or Tuesday. Especially since tix start going on sale next Monday. I hope so anyway - I need to plan my summer travel plans! :laugh:

[diamondsnake]

:D that's cool for them.

what did u think about the whole atmosphere?
I didn't mind it. My seat was top notch (front row in front of Stevie's mic), so I couldn't complain!

[Kelly]

I have to call this venue this morning to see if this is true about now being an indoor venue? It was only in September that the Mac was there outside..they tore it down and rebuilt an indoor venue since then? That venue sucked and I hope its gone..big ole wall in front of the stage and whatnot but I am skipping AC anyway..the prices are too high.

What is wrong with this whole thing? The tickets go onsale this Saturday for our two shows and there is NOTHING on TM or the Fix or anything. Unorganization...

Pattie..I agree..I hate when blocks of great seats are held for the super high prices and the meet and greet. Stevie does not normally do alot of meet and greets and no offense to the Henley fans, I am not that into meeting him at all. Now Joe Walsh? Yea...but not Don so much. I am paying face value for whatever I see this summer and a boatload for Vegas because its just her.

[Livia]

The indoor venue has been there for awhile - they've had several shows and boxing matches there. I thought they were building yet another indoor venue??

I also recall that the outdoor FM show was the first one they had. :shrug:

Parking:
Parking is available in the adjacent lots. There is up to a $25.00 fee during Summerfest.

During the summer since Borgata has been built, Maxim has thrown parties and concerts outdoors at a venue that is outside. I don't think it's the same "venue" as where the FM concert was held.

I know presently they have two indoor venues...music box and the events center. As far as Fleetwood Mac being the first outdoor show, they have definitely had events outside but I think they were on a much smaller scale in a different location somewhere around the Borgata.

I have a feeling there will be no West Palm :(

This is weird. They HAVE to do Cali, right? I mean, don't they have to? We're California, after all.... :p :laugh:

[skcin]

Godammit. Toronto. How can I not go to Toronto? I don't think it's possible.

I'm in such deep shit.... :laugh:

[MacMan]

Yeah, they probably should have started in California, cause if Henley is going to be there in middle of August with the Eagles anyway then ending the tour at the beginning of August, or the end of July is a little close.

Try searching just for "Stevie Nicks". (I always have that link bookmarked ;) )

[ShangriLaTroubl]

Ok im bringing up Toronto now too...still not seeing Milwaukee

[ShangriLaTroubl]

for some reason it has it listed as just DON HENLEY for Milwaukee is why...weird..im sure they are just having some trouble with editing it all...no biggie

[MacMan]

On Milwaukee... Look over to the right hand side and it says Stevie Nicks / Don Henley.

[Lee]

Hmmmm.... I wonder if this date is it for the Philly area. Friday night is a bad night around Philly, work traffic, the Phillies are playing at home that night; it'll definitely be a traffic nightmare. :( I don't know if hubby will go for this.

Lee :confused:

[77Rumours77]

Awesome! I told you guy we would get more info monday! LOL
I think that Kansas city and denver could easily fit inbetween Chicago and NEw Orleans. Lets hope for more info! WHOOO! :blob2:

[catinthedark]

So there I am.... sitting at work... casually checking out the Ticketmaster site... when

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Toronto comes up!!!!!!!!!!!! :]

I was SO not expecting that!!! But I am SO happy!! She's coming back to my city!!! I was ready to bust out all over. I'm still just stunned!!

(Now, how far is Hershey? Milwaukee?? :laugh: Okay, now I'm getting greedy. BUT I'M SO HAPPY!! I don't feel as bad about missing Vegas now.)

[Kelly]

I AM happy for all you guys who couldn't do Vegas that these dates are happening.
What the hell is going on with how they are being released though? No official word..just trickling out with little to NO press. When Mac tickets were onsale in Philly..it was pushed heavily on the radio. I heard ONCE that Stevie was coming to Philly this summer but the same station also said the Mac was coming in the summer of 06.
Not a word on the Fix or FM.com or anything. This smacks of a smaller promotor or something. If I did not frequent this board, I would have NO idea tickets for my two shows go onsale this Saturday. I am really curious to see how these shows sell...how long before we get some of that infor? do we have to wait until AFTER the gigs to figure out if it was a successful venture? I guess someone somewhere probably sees how the venues are selling when tickets go onsale.
They must because the brokers have been RAISING their prices for Vegas and it appears that no tickets have sold, ie , they still have the same damn seats they had a month ago. I called and the dude told me it was "selling well" so they raised the prices?!?

You're right it is a kind of odd way to start a tour, by waiting to the last second to even confirm it....It's hard to tell how a show sells at first, because often you can't base it on what kind of tickets are left...Usually an article or something ends up mentioning the success so far of tickets, after they go on sale...And yes if a show is selling well they do raise the prices...usually lowering the prices is the best indication of not selling well...Sometimes brokers will get MANY more than just a few seats in a row...usually more than 20, to sell, so while they may have say ORCH Row B listed forever...doesnt necessarily mean they have the same tix sitting around...when they sell tix..they buy more...brokers def. have connections

Chris

[ShangriLaTroubl]

Also to add...these shows still have a good chance of selling well..although they may not sell out quick...one everything is confirmed, and summer comes closer the buzz will generate...a lot of times tours like these sell better when the dates get closer

It depends on the venue.. i've gotten good seats through ticketmaster a few times in the smaller cities.. obviously, places like Boston, New York, etc are going to be much tougher because more tickets are going to be given to the ticket broker cartel..

i had problems with the june pittsburgh show (the hole in my heart never ceases to bleed for that show)... i think i paid too much for third row seats at that crap venue out at Star Lake, but i ended up paying more than twice as much for my Borgata tix. can't hate the brokers too much, else i wouldn't have gotten the seats, i just hate that you become forced to pay out to brokers instead of the band.

[Lee]

ehhh, just leave early.. it'll be worth it ;)


Yeah, this is what I told hubby. And I know he'd rather be going to see the Phillies, so I told him we'd go to a game another night.

Why is the info so slow to come out? Philly isn't even listed on TM yet. I wonder if there will be any type of presale.

I thought about going to A.C., but I've never been to the Borgota, & I like the Wachovia Center. I've been there a few times & I know the seating. And it's the very first show which is cool. :blob2:

Lee :)

[hayley]

Guys, they're not going to be playing the full arenas. More than likely, unless the demand is there (which it won't be), they're planning on cut-down arenas. Anywhere from 7K-11K seats, possibly even less.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. The Wachovia Center in Philly is a full arena. In fact, that's where I saw the Mac in 2003.

Actually Philly is listed on TM now. It wasn't last night, though. But I want to know why some shows are listed as Stevie Nicks and some are listed as Stevie Nicks/Don Henley. Is it possible some shows will strictly solo Stevie? That doesn't make sense to me. :shrug:

edit to add, Philly is 6/3 at the Wachovia Center, which I know was mentioned before, but I guess this confirms it.

I did hear from someone pretty reliable that the tour will end at the end of July..but it does not look that way if there are no Western shows listed yet?! This just gets odder and odder.
OMG..I just realized there are TWO Jones Beach shows? Oh my. The Mac couldnt even sell that place out. This is :shocked: .

[strandinthewind]

Gwinett is a cool arena and close to my friend's house. So, we will probably go :cool:

[AliceLover]

Most likely I am going to hit Mansfield, but I am going to 3 shows in Vegas so I don't know how this will work.

Also, didn't i read somewhere that Henley solo only sells about 1,000 out of 3,000 in an amplitheather. Stevie pulls in about 7,000 max now a days. I don't know how this is going to work but hey its great shes still going.

I have to draw the line on my shows this year. So unless they're coming to Buffalo, Rochester or Darien Lake, I'm probably going to have to sit this one out. :(

[hayley]

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. The Wachovia Center in Philly is a full arena. In fact, that's where I saw the Mac in 2003.

A cut-down arena is when they sell only a portion of the arena's seats, pull the curtains to cover a great deal of the empty area, and reconfigure the seating so that it's a smaller, intimate show.

Most markets don't have a venue that's the size they're looking for, so it's easiest to just play an arena, and cut down capacity. It's becoming more popular.

I've been to a few shows like you. That'll probably be what happens at Wachovia :nod:

[Rickypt]

The cut-down arena makes much more sense. I saw Dolly Parton in such a setup last year and it was a pretty good environment.

I love my Stevie, but I highly doubt she can draw 7K this year. This tour is pure nostalgia with no new music. Plus the Eagles and FM have been all over the country the past couple of years.

I predict a bit of a bust with this tour, hoping I'm wrong. I'm much happier to go to an arena, cut-down or not, than a shed. I swore I would never go back to an awful shed no matter what.

warning to tampa bay fans: the show at ford amp will suck. the venue was poorly designed and so many neighbors have complained they can't use half of the sound system. hope that it's seats-only because the lawn tix aren't even worth it. i saw jimmy buffett there last month and (from the foggy bits that lumber to mind) you can't hear a thing from the lawn. i swore i would never pay to see another show there. thankfully i won't be tested - i'll be vacationing elsewhere this summer.

Shady Pines, Ma!

[ShangriLaTroubl]

I hope this is correct...the Gwinnett Arena is in a perfect part of town...much nicer than Philips, and a little smaller, it doesnt go as high up...Fleetwood Mac played the Gwinnett Arena in Sept of 03, great show, awesome sound there (I had 2nd row for that one, straight from ticketmaster)..Fleetwood Mac played 3 shows in Atlanta in 03-04, all sold very well...

Stevie and Don together will be able to draw a lot of crowds, you might be surprised...you say it's just nostalgia...well that's what sells concert tickets. The majority of Mac fans that saw them on tour, didnt come because they bought the new CD..shit nearly half the ppl there had no idea they had a new cd out till they saw it at the merch stands...

This is the perfect tour for soft classic rock fans..

Chris

[TwistedGypsy]

I saw them at the Gwinnett Arena also and I did like it better than Philips. I would kind of prefer Hi-Fi Buys Amp. but oh well... I'll def. be there and may even try to swing Tampa. :nod:

[77Rumours77]

WHAT IS GOING ON HERE! NO WHERE NER CLOSE TO WHERE I LIVE!!!!!
Looks like I will have to sit this one out. :(

[SoundBoyBrad]

Actually Philly is listed on TM now. It wasn't last night, though. But I want to know why some shows are listed as Stevie Nicks and some are listed as Stevie Nicks/Don Henley. Is it possible some shows will strictly solo Stevie? That doesn't make sense to me.

edit to add, Philly is 6/3 at the Wachovia Center, which I know was mentioned before, but I guess this confirms it.

Carol

Perhaps I'm missing it, but I just checked Ticketmaster with no sign of the Wachovia Center in Philly with Stevie and/or Don. Most of the other shows mentioned came up under some combination of the two names, but I can't find one for the Philly show. I know it's on Pollstar, but I guess I'm just looking for another source to confirm it. Suggestions?? Thoughts??

Brad

[StevieNicksEO17]

I'm totally going to the Chicago and the Milwaukee one! :D Hmmm Maybe the Des Moines or Detroit one too!

You know, I'm not seeing it either, Brad, & it was there this afternoon, I swear. What are they doing? :( This is a mess. They don't have all the dates listed together, they are spread out all over.

Well, it looks like I'll be going to Borgota afterall, if the Philly date doesn't come back up there.

Lee :(

Oh, BTW, that's interesting about the "cut-down arena". I've never been to one of those before.

Chris

No argument that it will draw on the nostalgia factor. I question whether it will draw thousands of people to indoor arenas. This tour can't really be compared to Fleetwood Mac--their draw is unique regardless of new music.

I could see this bill bringing a few thousand people to sheds because a lot of people like that summer outdoor experience and this would make a great summer night show. Warm weather, a few drinks, and a night of nostalgia.

But will the same crowd go to a basketball arena to see Stevie Nicks and Don Henley? Something tells me probably not. I predict 3/4 full arenas. Hope I'm wrong though.

In the Philly area they call it the Spectrum Theatre,when they hold thes shows in the old Spectrum,but this show apparently is in the new building.
I just saw Velvet Revolver in the winter and that was the setup.
Most of the upper level is covered by a black curtain.

[77Rumours77]

Is there a chance of anymore dates?? I mean after the Eagles mini tour?
I mean no LA, Fresno, San Fran, Seattle, Portland???? Hell for that matter.. Wheres KC and St. Louis? WTF! Oh well, I am sure I will c this show no matter where it is.... Am I smelling a trip to dallas? :shrug: :rolleyes:

Ooooh.... and Detroit.... So close, and so many great memories from the last show last year...

I think I must do at least one additional show... Detroit may be it. Anyone know how this venue is? (Sorry if that was answered above - I ferget :o ).

I have to say I loved the Detroit experience. The city was just okay to me - I do not think gldstwmn and I will soon forget eating something resembling meat in a run down steak house that Sinatra probably used to frequent and then the CD cut of TD comes on just as we are baggin La Nicks :laugh: - SPOOKY :eek: - But that concert and the partying afterward was WAY cool.

Pine Knob/DTE is a very cool, clean, little amphitheater that I think doubles as some sort of bunny hill ski area in the winter. Be careful, the lawn is very steep.
I have a very soft spot in my heart for the blue collar city that 40 years ago was one rockin' town.
Just be careful where you stay there.
I have been there twice and have really enjoyed it both times. :)

Cool - thanks for the tips. Luckily I can do Detroit and drive home - the adrenaline alone is amazing for staying awake on that four hour drive. :nod: I absolutely loved the venue last year (wait a minute - is this the same one? Pine Knob doesn't sound familiar - but DTE does), primarily because the stage was low (and I got to shake Stevie's hand... oh, but I digress...). What was I saying about adrenaline? Anyhow, after the stage from hell in, where was it... ooooh... brain fart... anyway, there was some venue where the stage was, like, 12 feet high, I am very careful about where I travel long distances to! :)

Same here. Vegas was a splurge, even though I'm only going to one show. So unless they come to Cincinnati, Nashville, or Louisville, I won't be going.

They are? I wonder why?

Exactly what I said. And I'm looking at this today. Oh great, I can get parking for a nonexistent concert! :shrug: I e-mailed TM yesterday afternoon asking them if they (Don/Stevie) are going to be at the Wachovia Center or not. I got an automated reponse that someone will reply in 48 hours, but you know how that usually goes.

I guess Nicksfix got so many emails, they HAD to post this...

I want an official list of tour dates now! I don't want to get too excited about the Florida tour dates on this list because no other source confirms it. I really wish the Tampa and Miami shows were popping up on ticketmaster but they are not right now, so I am worried that that could be false info.

On the other hand, I am just so excited about Vegas it is hard to start planning other Stevie related things right now because I have Caesar's Palace on the brain.

[Kelly]

Taku said about a month ago that he was NOT playing Vegas because of his inability to rehearse because of the Bette tour in Aussie. He confirmed he WILL be with her this summer on the Henley/Nicks gig. I adore Taku and find him pretty charming.

Would Stevie ever NOT do Stand Back??? I think in the 22 years of the song's existance, she didn't perform it only once.. 1996 was it?

if nothing else, you can count on Stand Back :p

I think Peter played on that set, which I mean WHY.

Brad Jeffries was probably the guy who danced with Stevie onstage. He's her old choreographer from her videos.
