Saw stevie in gainesville today, by puuuuuure luck....I ALMOST FLIPPED OUT!

i had to go with my candidate to a political event at the hilton hotel. It was a luncheon for "house of hope" so we come out, going out the backway of the hotel and we see huge buses getting stuff put in. It was then i thought omg....i bet petty is stayin here and there were blk cars just sitting. As soon as i saw what was going on...stevie came out the back doors. I shoved my boss aside and walked up to her all confident and told her that i was so sad i couldnt see them tonight, but there was a huge political event in gville i was forced to attend, but ive seen you 4 times solo, and 3 times with the mac. She said "wowwww you are a fan arent you? and a lil cutie 2"then i said....i was anxiously awaiting linds new album, and she said "yahhh its so great for him, this was his baby". Then i said..."im also looking forward to another album from you" and she winked at me and said..."we'll see, i am writing like crazy, would make sense to get them out there at some point, bye sweetie, and it was so nice meeting you".

I CAN DIE NOW....she was so sweet, she wasnt done up at alll though, she looked like she were on her way to work out or something (workout/pajama type outfit). She seemed so happy, and I guarantee this will be a great show, SUCKS I HAVE TO MISS IT!!!

That is awesome! I'm glad she is as nice to people as I would expect her to be. Writing like crazy, eh? That's a good sign.

she had a small entourage with her, but she was literally just walking to get into her car from the hotel, while all the petty tech guys were loading stuff in/out of their buses.

she had no makeup, and her hair was pulld up. Her little outfit was a black jumpsuit (pajama/workout style). She looked great for not being done up, and while the outfit may have been misleading, she looks like shes dropped a little weight.

WOW!!! That's so awesome. Congrats, Gavin!!!! I'm surprised you could even say something.... And she called you a "lil cutie". I'm surprised you're still alive :lol:

Thats so cool! I guess it was one of those times that you wish you had a cell phone camera :cool:

Oh. My. God. That is so awesome. I would've died. That is good you went right up to her, I probably would have fainted on the way. It sucks you are missing the big TP homecoming show, though. :( Wow, you know, only a relative handful of people get to meet her, and you are one of them! And you didn't have to pay $1000 to attend the Arizona heart thing!

Holy CRAP! :eek: :shocked:

1. She called you a litle cutie and sweetie and

2. You were able to maintain and ask her the important questions.

Moderators, this person deserves elevated status here at the Ledge, in spite of his few posts. :laugh:

Congratulations....I love the "random meeting" stories. I live in South Florida and when I was walking in to work this morning I remember thinking.....Oh Wow Stevie's here. Three hundred miles away....but hey that's still here!!!! :]

wow- that's SO COOL! I guess all your stars are in alignment today or something! :thumbsup: And it is good that you were able to ask her a couple questions. Congrats!!!!

SandyMac
09-21-2006, 08:53 PM
Congratulations Gavin ! I am bowing and taking my hat off to you. I am so glad you had the courage to just walk up to her and ask those questions. Once in a lifetime opportunity and you took it. :thumbsup:

Wow, I love the fact that she winked at you. Sometimes though it really does come across that she does not fully realize how badly her fans want a new album or the fact that we see her multiple times either solo or with the Mac.
(or it just comes across that way because she is being humble)

I bet you were on cloud 9 all day today. I know I would be. You should write this down in a journal or something so you will have something to read and re-read to look back on this wonderful experience.

i love that it was pure fate - nothing planned or set up, and that she was SO great to you!! honestly, i love stories like this. you are SO lucky, gavin. probably most of us would chew off our own right arm to have this experience.

sable
09-22-2006, 07:30 AM
wow,wow,wow,you are one lucky guy, so stevie thinks your a cutie hey? :lol:

lets see a pic then, we at least wanna know what the face of the person who asked the right questions in the heat of the moment looks like!!! :wavey:

Stevie_Buck
09-22-2006, 08:22 AM
Oh my god. Are you serious?

I'm heading to the show tonight (atl)... without tickets. Hopefully I'll get lucky like I did last time when I get there. Too bad you can't make the show, but I'd rather meet Ms. Nicks face-to-face anyday! =o]

GavinBrown
09-22-2006, 02:41 PM
Here's my pic so you all know what "type" of guy stevie likes these days...lol....or just a guy she randomly calls cutie, but one can dream right?

Livia
09-22-2006, 02:48 PM
Aaaw! You ARE a cutie! :p

DrummerDeanna
09-22-2006, 03:38 PM
