Nicks McNuggets - Page 10

We wrote a chatty little letter to Stevie Nicks one night out there, like we all were old friends… that still makes me laugh. We never mailed it or anything; in fact I think I still have it in the “archives” here somewhere. It was just one of those things that didn’t make any sense, but just felt like the right thing to do.

Rick James put it best: "Cocaine is a hell of a drug." It's highly addictive and destructive and has destroyed countless lives over the years. Like any drug, it causes its users to occasionally go to drastic lengths to get it and use it. That leads us to the case of Stevie Nicks, the singer for Fleetwood Mac, one of the most popular rock bands of the 1970s. The story goes that she became a cocaine user during that time and did it so much that she eventually not only became tolerant to its effects but had a hole in her nose and couldn't snort the cocaine. So she did what any reasonable human being would do: she had a roadie blow it up her ass with a straw.

She would leave "Little Women" and books by Willa Cather and Tennessee Williams at my bedside. They would go unread as I preferred, at bedtime, my own fantasies of running away to Stevie Nicks' house where she would seduce in me in a room with a wicked amount of candles. It wasn't until my mid-twenties that I began to actually read.

I read with great interest your piece devoted to the selection of performers for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ["The Genesis of a Progressive Rock Trend?," Jan. 1, by Mike Boehm].

As pointed out, there is clearly an inconsistency and bias in the decision-making process, which has left many deserving artists overlooked year after year.

I agree that the Fifth Dimension are well worthy of consideration and clearly the Monkees' extreme commercial success combined with their teen idol reputation seems to work against them, though in a fair and balanced world they would have been admitted years ago.

However, the Hall of Fame board is particularly guilty of a boy's club mentality that passes over female talent as if they are second-class citizens. How else to explain the absence of trail-blazing singer-songwriter Jackie DeShannon ("Put a Little Love in Your Heart," "Bette Davis Eyes"), who was at the forefront of the folk-rock era, paving the way for later girl rockers like Stevie Nicks and Sheryl Crow.

This is an excerpt from a New York Magazine article about John Edwards and his mistress Rielle Hunter.

http://nymag.com/news/politics/63045/

Brumberger thought that she [Rielle] was trouble from the get-go. She looked like a hybrid of Stevie Nicks and Lucinda Williams, in an outfit more suitable for a Grateful Dead concert than an evening at the Regency. A few minutes later, after Edwards departed for a dinner around the corner, Hunter came back over to Brumberger and started quizzing him about his job. “I think I can help you guys,” she said, and handed him her business card. The inscription read, BEING IS FREE: RIELLE HUNTER—TRUTH SEEKER.

* Contemporary knitwear company Qi launched in 2002 with a mission to source the next big thing in luxury yarn every season — which means that Qi’s signature luxe cashmere can be imported from Italy or harvested from as far away as Mongolia. The easy-to-wear, cozy-yet-cool sportswear pieces have been given a retro rock-girl treatment.
“I was inspired by Stevie Nicks’ ethereal personal style and the concept of being a world traveler with layering and combining textures to create a modern gypsy look,” says design director Karina Mazzilli, who studied knitwear at the Fashion Institute of Technology and previously worked for Seventh Avenue heavyweights Donna Karan and Zac Posen.

So I find myself diving (as I’ve always wished) into the pop artist/performance artist career. Today I had my first voice lesson with Steve Real-he’s a vocal coach to the Backstreet Boys, Olivia Newton-John, Stevie Nicks, Chloe Lattanzi and so many other amazing and I mean AMAZING artists! It was real inspiring and motivating to work with him and to have him take the time to shape and direct the voice I hope to someday broadcast to the world. I think I’m going to grow so much as a singer as long as I stick to it with Steve.
