Thanks Nicksfix!

[chiliD]

Cool...any chance of posting a, oh, let's say, 300 x 300 pixel jpg of it?

[xxxmx]

it's much 80s, but i like the gold pyramid.

ps, i have some kind of crazy unofficial symmetry-obsessed disorder, so the words sticking out past the corners of the pyramid are killing me.

[dissention]

Can't say that I do.

[jkmaletic]

I think it's kinda cool. It's retro in the fact it resembles the same dove that Stevie has in the beginning of the "Stevie Nicks in Concert" VHS. Maybe it's just Chris Nicks being lazy too :rolleyes: , but either way I like it.

Yarrrrgggghhhhhh! Why'd you say that?! I'm trying to get over my crazy unofficial symmetry based disorder!

Thats the ****tiest piece of crap.

Thanks Nicksfix!It's beautiful. It reminds me immediately of that verse in Genesis in the Y(J)ahwist strand in which Noah sends out first the raven & then the dove, & the dove returns with the olive branch in its beak, indicating the abatement of the flood waters & God's eternal promise never to flush our collective toilet again.

but Stevie's dove is carrying a white rose, which is probably from the Jean Cocteau movie of the beauty & beast.

[strandinthewind]

Or, she is making a gesture of peace to the fans - perhaps on many levels.

I like it a lot. I thought immediately of the HBO Concert logo (I like when it flips at the start) with the tambourine. On my computer I can't tell it's a pyramid. It looks like a triangle. (Perhaps Stevie has switched instruments :lol: .)

I like the words sticking out. More eye-catching this way.

I knew she created it with me in mind.

[EnchantedSLN]

:shrug: I like it. But then I liked the BD tour logo, which this one is very similar to. Honestly I'd rather have this on a shirt than the TISL promo photo from the ads.

There were a few other shirts there and a really cute sweatshirt as well. I guess Chris Nicks had no part in their creation this time around?

:D you won't like the keychain then

it just has a pic of a bag of gold

[Livia]

Destiny Galleria has the teddy bear and a couple other t-shirts for sale on ebay - they say "Stevie Nicks" in the Bella Donna script, and also have the dove on 'em.

[MacMan]

I like it!

[Rickypt]

I like it just fine. It definitely has a Bella Donna look to it, and it captures the tour's theme (nostalgia) quite well. I don't like that it says "touring" instead of "tour", but I don't plan to buy any souvenirs anyway.

[AliceLover]

BLECH! :sorry:

[Serrart]

I like it, it's elegant and simple, and a request for peace, I agree. :)

If it had a pic of a bag of gold dust, I'd probably buy one. :p

Just took a peek - thanks! The gold dust bag is a little weird (I think most people won't know what it is), but I love the BD style shirt. The teddy bear is supercute. I have yet to pick up a Stevie tour bear... I definitely have to grab one of these.

[amber]

Birds aren't cute. I'm not scared of them, but for some reason it's rubbing me the wrong way, here. I wish it was the TISL dragon, or something.

[JazmenFlowers]

Yarrrrgggghhhhhh! Why'd you say that?! I'm trying to get over my crazy unofficial symmetry based disorder!

I have the same thing. I'm constantly checking things to be sure they are equal, lined up or even...it's insane.

[ELIUD]

I like the dove which is totally from the Bella Donna tour, but I'm not liking the triangle/pyramid or the font and overall design.

The dove with the rose alone would have been a lot nicer. And of course some other typeface for the text.

the bears are so cute! i can't help but buy two of them at each show :)
i was happy they had a penguin for syw too. the only thing i don't like abut the bear is that the shirt has green sleeves.

i also bought keychains and two shirts.

[GODDESS6]

i love it & it's retroness :thumbsup: :thumbsup: ~

Ummm... I think it's kinda ugly :o

That's weird, I like the pyramid. But like, the bird and the rose freak me out. I would love it if it had the pyramid, with a crescent moon, somehow. That would be kind of plain, though, I guess, but I like plain stuff. Yep, a gold pyramid with a shimmery white crescent moon in it. Why don't these people call me?

I'd like a moon and pyramid better than the bird, rose, and pyramid. It's just not very original.

A crescent moon would have been perfect....dusted in gold glitter. :thumbsup:

I think it looks a little to 80s in that it's a montage of images. Also, I think the designer is one of those "Hey, I know how to use photoshop!" kinda designers. The type isn't very strong. It's far too small. Doesn't have enough presence in the logo. But I'm a graphic designer. So, I'm a total dink about these things! :sorry:

Heyyyy, dude! You should design one and show it to us!!! Can you do that pyramid glitter moon thing? Or, anything. That would kick much bun. :) No birds!!! :mad:

It's ok. Could have been worse. I do think there's a message here. :nod: To the fans? :shrug: Perhaps. :)

Well, I think it's much better than the selection we were given in Vegas. :)

re: the symmetry thing

i have it bad. like if i stretch one arm, i MUST stretch the other. if something is supposed to be in the middle, and it's not, i really can't look at it. i have been tempted to bit my lip or scuff a toe (really really hard) to 'even out.' i know this isn't normal, but it doesn't interfere so i don't mind. plus, it's something to focus on. but yeah, those words on the logo, if there was something going up the other side i'd be a lot more okay with it.

i like the gold pyramid slash crescent moon idea, like stevie's necklaces. and i must check out this dustbag souvenir, WTF?

That is pretty severe. I had no idea you were crazy when I was hanging out w/you. :lol: Mine mainly has to do with any shapes/colors I can see. And body jewelry/tattoos. Get one nipple pierced? Not on your life!!!
Erm, apparently the glitterbag is actually a bag with gold coins? If I'm remembering correctly? Not as cool. Rock on Gold Coin Woman? Not exactly.

http://nicksfix.com/2005_logo_200%20.jpgI've always loved the dove w/ white rose graphic from the 'In Concert' video, so I love this.
And this design makes for an interesting contrast between the symbolism of the dove (peace) and the pyramid (sun, energy).

[macfanken]

I don't think I like it, shouldn't it say "Gold Dust Tour 2005" or something like that? "Touring 2005" sounds so vague, like she'll be touring sometime in 2005 but who knows when or where. :confused: I'm also very disturbed by the words going past the edge of the lines... it looks like "Stevie Nicks" is sliding down the side of the pyramid.

I like the logo. However, I wish it had been a little bit more creative and I'm not a big fan of the "Touring" either, but I LOVE the pyramid.

Every Sissy,
Every Cowboy, let's tongue-kiss tonight..
Our Backside's back alright!

All you homos and tight young boys,
Crisco brothers let's make some noise,
Got body hair we're gonna shave it now,
Gonna dress you up like a little boy scout..

Do we like Liza - Yeah!
DO we like juicy butts - Yeah!
Do we love nipple rings - Yeah!
-If you look like Ricky Martin jump in to the shower now!

Every homo, yeah
Every Fairy, yeah
Every Cowboy, let's tongue-kiss tonight,
Our backside's back alright!

(the breakdown)
So every homo everywhere,
Let's see what's in your underwear (yeahyeahyeah..)

If you love penis we'll be your friend,
We'll be your Friend!!

I must have what Mariel has because the words just do not look right to me and I want to just give them a little boost up. :lol: And when I got online earlier and that popped up (Nicksfix is my homepage) my first thought was that someone must be proud that he or she can use Photoshop. (I believe Daniel alerady commented on that). It just strikes me as cheap, tired, and uninspired. As Amber said earlier in the thread, the TISL dragon would look better, though I think it would be necessary to change it a bit so that it wouldn't be identical to but reminiscent of the TISL one. I also think this thing is too busy. The landsliding bringing the words down and that's distracting, the dove has a white rose and that's excessive in my book, and then that damn pyramid. What's that about, anyway? Okay, is everyone getting that I don't like it too much? :lol:

[GateandGarden]

Oh, and I meant to say in the last post--they should have asked Daniel and Mikki to design it together instead.

As for Stevie's logo....

It must be a Chris Nicks original. Nothing else could explain how horrible it is.

[SeattleMark]

I own a very small design firm and I personally would never let that logo leave my studio. But, I'm very picky about graphics and anything Stevie, so that's just me. The dove is pretty, but the colors and fonts don't say "Stevie" to me. It looks kind of Pink Floyd in Storybook Forest.

I guess she has to let Chris do something, he and his family do live there free of charge . . . but why graphics? Ugh. (I'm mostly referring to SA and Enchanted cover, not necessarily this pyramid.)

[SeattleMark]

Yes, most of the solo tourbooks are "ass". How about the OSOTM Rooms on Fire storyboard? Fabulous!
RAL & WH were good. The BD sheetmusic was almost like a tourbook - that was cool.

And what an amazing opportunity for some incredible design. She has the budget. She should hire Margo Chase to do her design. Check out her work at www.margochase.com. She's my absolute favorite designer. She's done stuff for Madonna (aka that hag no one in their right mind likes anymore) and Cher and Loreena McKennitt (the album artwork she's done for Loreena is absolutely enviably gorgeous! I have never done anything even close). I think you guys will agree that she would do some seriously amazing stuff if Ms. Nicks would ditch her brother as her designer!

Yes, much better... although for some reason I still can only picture this logo on a T-shirt worn by a 200-pound middle aged woman with leathery skin, fried/bleached blonde hair in a shaggy mullet holding a lit Marlboro while coughing up last night's phlegm. Does this sound like anyone we would see at a Stevie Nicks concert?? :lol: :eek:

I think the most annoying element is the triangle- it's too Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon." I think a tambourine needs to go in there somewhere...

[SapphireSister]

The logos and merchandising for our girl are nothing short of embarrassing. There could be so much more done to make this stuff creative and beautiful and visually stimulating. I mean the t-shirts in Vegas were atrocious. We are not dealing with some opening act here...it's freakin Stevie Nicks and we know they have the budeget. They need to bring in a fresh new face with new ideas and creativity to be the head of Marketing for Ms. Nicks and I know just the person for the position - ME!

Yeah Curtis, it's not bad. I think that will definitely be a t-shirt, when she moves away from Don, if it's not already

Yeah, I'm really not a fan of the flying dove with the white rose and the stupid gold triangle. But at least I improved the type! If I have time, I'll tinker some more with it. A tambourine would be tits (to quote Cartman)!
