From an interview with Terry Manning:

"When I was in junior high school, the girl in front of me in homeroom was really, really cute. I mean I really had a crush on her. Probably my first real crush. But I didn’t know how to deal with girls, and to be honest still don’t. So I’d poke at her, or pull her pigtail if she had one, or whatever. Just stuff. You know, thinking maybe she’ll notice me. One day she’d had enough. Couldn’t stand any more of me being a pestering little idiot, I guess. So she leaned around, took her pencil and jammed it right into my leg. Right into my right knee. And a piece of lead that broke off in there. I still see it every day, right under the skin.... Now here’s the thing. The girl got in a band later too and changed her name from Stephanie to Stevie Nicks"

Later he worked with her on Rick Vito's solo album, but he didn't talk to her about it. There's a little more to the story. Definitely worth a read:
