Funny that you don't know we are NOT Lindsey fans so much as FLeetwood Mac fans. Stevie used to be my favorite but she has turned into an insufferable human being. If calling us Lindsey fans helps you cope with the fact that MOST OF US used to be HUGE Stevie fans. I own EVERY ONE OF HER ALBUMS. EVERY ONE. Guess what? Someone doesn't deserve my fandom forever if they act like a total a##hole.

Nope. Not a solo song.

Not Dreams or Rhiannon or Sara or GDW or any of those.

I'm a Fleetwood Mac fan and have never made my disinterest or dislike of any of their solo careers a secret. I love the 1975-87; 1997-2018 version of Fleetwood Mac - that music, that combination of those 5 people, that's what suckered me in 30 years ago at the ripe old age of 8. I've expanded my knowledge and interest to some of the pre 1975 stuff as well as the post-1987 output and some of their solo stuff (of which I always found Stevie's to be the most accessible to be honest). I have never been a "Lindsey fan" as is always the accusation to anyone who dares to express their frustration, anger, or disappointment with what went down with the band this past year. I'm pissed that Stevie Nicks orchestrated the breakup of a band that I've loved for most of my life.

It’s not perfect but it’s FAR better then Timespace. I think including Live Edge and Rock and Roll are way better slot fillers then Sometimes it’s a Bitch, Desert Angel and Loves a Hard Game to Play. Plus I think the running order is amazing.

I’d actually say Crystal Visions is the best single disk introduction to either Stevie or Fleetwood Mac. It represents The best of Stevie Nicks both way better then Timespace or that green greatest hits album for Fleetwood Mac.

I imagine her set will look something like:

Stand Back
Outside the Rain
Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around (duet with a special guest)
Edge of Seventeen

Ghosts Are Gone would be a fun rocker, but no one will have heard of it.
This is Stevie--she'll insist on doing the "recognition guaranteed" hits for this occasion.

Also I guess she shouldn't/couldn't do Ghosts Are Gone without Dave Stewart.

The thing is, her live versions of EO17 and Stand Back can drag on so long, how could there be time for any more songs than those two, particularly when you add in her long acceptance speech and the speech to introduce her? There are SIX other acts to induct, after all. The most ever.

Take out Outside the Rain and add in Leather and Lace and you have your set. That's what Goat woman will do.

alot of us forget that she had a few top 10 hits doing duets pre-"Bella Donna", such as Magnet and steel,"( peaked number 8) with Walter Egan, "Whenever I call You Friend," with Kenny loggins (hit number 5) and "Gold," with John Stewart (charted at number 5). However it's very doubtful she would do any of those. "Talk to me" peaked #4 pop and #1 Rock, "If anyone falls," and "I can't wait," both hit the top 16, both top ten Rock charts, and "Rooms on fire," also charted top 16 and #1 Rock. The latter was also her biggest worldwide solo hit. it would be interesting if she did a medley of some of those, reminding people of those other hits. Although "Stand Back," and "Edge of seventeen," are most likely.

I would substitute Outside the Rain with Leather and Lace, especially if Don Henley is there. And even though she loves Stop Dragging My Heart, I don't think she'll perform 2 duets, so Leather and Lace, Stand Back, and Edge of Seventeen seem like good guesses. Plus she wrote all three.

As I recall, when Fleetwood were inducted, they did Say You Love Me and two acoustic songs, correct? I can't imagine Stevie would be asked to do any more than two songs. It's not even supposed to be a "mini-set." It's just a taste.

She'll probably do Stop Dragging and Edge. But I'd vote for In Your Dreams and the Bella Donna + Wild Heart medley, which she worked up for her last tour.

I'd also like to add, it would be great if she did a version of "Moonlight," like she did off of her last solo tour as it brought down the house

Yes, they did SYLM, Big Love, and Landslide. I always thought those were odd choices - I mean, the only 'set' they'd played in 20+ years with no Rumours songs. Only one song with the whole band and then two with Lindsey and Stevie. I was always surprised it wasn't more like the Grammy or Brit Awards set with Rhiannon, Don't Stop, and GYOW.

I predict Leather and Lace (with Henley) and Edge....or Stand Back and Edge.

I don’t think Gold was a duet. It does sound like harmony vocal. Whenever is a definite duet.

The majority of which came on Bella Donna, with SB on Wild Heart. two albums, 1981 and 1983 respectively. One she did not write (SDMHA) and one she poached from Prince (Stand Back)... and one she sort of poached from the Police (Edge.... go listen to Bring On the Night)

Whatever. The point is, nobody here is spewing vitriol about Lindsey, but many of you continue to do so about Stevie, and have for ten months, daily, in every thread. And if challenged, you pump it up. Being former Stevie fans who are upset is one thing, but that kind of behavior is something else. If she does not deserve your fandom then simply stop being a fan.
