Fleetwood Mac superstar Stevie Nicks has a horse race named after her in Melbourne this week.
Race 7 at Flemington Race Course this Saturday (November 5) is the Stevie Nicks Plate. "I am so honored to be a part of something with such cultural value as the Melbourne Cup and the whole week of the racing carnival” she said in a statement. “I know it's a very special time for the city and I'm thrilled to be able to experience it all first hand”.
A day at the races means dressing up for the star. "Besides the great racing, I've been told the fashion is wonderful and so my designer Margi Kent and I are having so much fun planning my outfits. I know it's going to be a fantastic week" she said.
Nicks is in Melbourne this week to announce her forthcoming concert tour. She will perform with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra on February 18, 2006. The show will be filmed for a live DVD. Promoter Andrew McManus was also the man behind MSO shows for DVD with Kiss and Meatloaf.
Stevie will perform with John Farnham in Perth and Brisbane as well as her own shows in Sydney and Newcastle.
Vanessa Carlton will support all shows.
Dates are:
Saturday February 18 Melbourne, Rod Laver Arena * with the MSO
Monday February 20, Brisbane, Entertainment Centre * with John Farnham
Friday February 24, Newcastle, Entertainment Centre
Saturday February 25, Sydney, Entertainment Centre
Tuesday February 28, Perth, The WACA Ground * with John Farnham
