The first sentence of this article just cracked me up. There is a small Stevie mention.

It's time to drain the life savings account, mortgage the home and sell the kids to Michael Jackson. We're on the brink of the 2005 summer concert season and, well, let's just say that -- apart from attending the American Music Awards -- this might be the only opportunity to catch Coldplay, MC Hammer, Wilco, Judas Priest, Avril Lavigne, 50 Cent and the Dave Matthews Band in one fell swoop. Here's the Pink's clip-and-save scorecard for the summer's essential shows:
STEVIE NICKS July 30, Chronicle Pavilion. Even without the rest of Fleetwood Mac, she's still got an amazing voice and all those songs about witches and unicorns..

To be fair, the writer could be referring to the Legends footage in Vegas, which featured Unicorns. That certainly would go with the "amazing voice" comment :nod:
