[dark stevie]

dear "ledgies"~
is there anyone who was at the chicago show who knows, remembers or has audio/video record of excatly what stevie said when she dedicated "LANDSLIDE" to a fan named "melissa winburn"? that's me...and of course, i heard nothing beyond my name, as i was utterly stunned wondering how she knew my name...i've never been on this site before and am sorry for taking up so much room...but if anyone knows anything i would be deeply grateful for you sharing with me...

Basically , thats all she said, this is dedicated to YOU of course. She said basically that you were overriding her dad that night. What did you do or say or send to her that would make her mention you?? Yes, we all heard it.......................

Hello Melissa! :wavey:

I met you after the Chicago show -- I was the girl wearing the "Chiffonhead" shirt and moon necklace that you commented on. I bet you're still on a high after that dedication...it was one of the coolest Stevie stories I have ever heard! Congrats again...I'm so happy for you!!!

I posted some of my pics from the show if you want to take a look. ;)

Hi Melissa..

How EXCITING!!! Welcome to the Ledge!:wavey:

[dark stevie]

my friend kim somehow contacted an agent or publicist of stevies attempting to arrange for me to meet her...i DID NOT know about this... i've never really cared for "arranged" meetings they can be artificial...well, the request to meet her was obviously denied, but apparently whomever my friend contacted forwarded this request to stevie/her people and instead of a meeting, stevie dedicated "landslide"...that is the reason i did not hear anything beyond my name...my friend kim who was at the concert w/me had such a reaction and was explaining this to me...because i truly did not know....i was hoping someone would have audio/video (youtube) so i would know exactly what was said and have the "full memory" instead of the "stevie nicks once said my name memory"....thank you for your quick response(s) and thank you both [i'm not that computer savvy] for welcoming me and not being mad about my lengthiness...

[SandyMac]

dark stevie, that is just so awesome. You have to write this down in journal or something so you can remember it always. Thank you for sharing your story.

Welcome to The Ledge :wavey:

[David]

That's pretty cool. Congratulations. Hope you get a video of the moment -- there's bound to be one sooner or later.

[Erin]

I remember her saying that you (Melissa) had been to all of her shows, and that the only other person she knew who had been to all of her shows was her (Stevie). It was cute. So have you really been to that many shows?

I was the tall big guy LOL

[dark stevie]

i have been to too many shows to count...i did miss the "tango" show due to being sooooo incredibly pregnant...i really regretted it...but only until "the dance"....most of the shows have been here in chicago or the surrounding area (w/in like 6-7 hours)...but like the rest of "us", i'm no stranger to airplanes, "midnight" or otherwise...and "david" if you are who i think you are, it was great meeting you...and you really are tall, because i felt short...and that doesn't happen very often...

[BTFLCHLD]

only one person has been to ALL of her shows...bwaahhha...right david? ;)

[DavidMn]

I dont care where I sit, I just want to say when this is all over with that I can look back and not wish I hadnt enjoyed this ride as much as possible.:)

[GlennGlenn]

because i truly did not know....i was hoping someone would have audio/video (youtube) so i would know exactly what was said and have the "full memory" instead of the "stevie nicks once said my name memory"....thank you for your quick response(s) and thank you both [i'm not that computer savvy] for welcoming me and not being mad about my lengthiness...


She actually said you name TWICE if I recall properly; It was heartfelt as if she knew you!!!

Dave, I love ya man, BUT thats F***ed up!! Its only music man, its only music!!!


*** Wish I were going too :) *****

[camchristo]

Dark Stevie/Melissa, I was in the second row and I heard the full dedication. She said Landslide was dedicated to you because you had been to every show she has ever done.... and she thought she was the only one to have been to every show she has ever done. She said that she usually dedicates the song to her dad but that you were beating out her dad that night.

It's funny to see you post on here because I actually thought about that dedication and took her literally. In fact, on the way home, I asked my boyfriend who in the hell could go to every show Stevie has ever done? I said it must either be someone who works for her or someone who is loaded and doesn't have to work and can follow Stevie cross-country. She really made it sound like you hadn't missed a show - ever!

Cool story and nice of your friend to try to arrange a meeting! :)

[steviefan59]

hey melissa/dark stevie...welcome to the ledge and thanks to u and david for supporting stevie all these years and all those tours too...stevie's not going to be recording forever and i'd do the same thing if i were able...she's one of a kind and there'll never be another...where did u come up with ur id of dark stevie? there are a few ppl who go to these shows and record them...perhaps this chicago show was recorded...i'll do a little scouting around for u to see if the one i know of was there...take care...pat

[dark stevie]

unfortunately for me, i am not "loaded" nor do i work for her...wonder what that'd be like...my friends correspondence indicated that i had never missed a "CHICAGO show...not knowing i missed "tango" ~ as my friend is, well WAS not a "stevie listener", she only knows that i've been "following" stevie nicks around for well over half of my life...which she thought was odd... until i told her this is common in the "stevie world"...so something got lost between my friend, whomever she contacted, whomever they contacted and the stage...i wish i would've had time and resources (and energy) to attend EVERY SINGLE stevie/fm show ever...and why am i calling myself "dark stevie" ??? well... that's what people at the concerts have called me over the years when i walk by...i am "dressed" and i have long "DARK-STEVIE"-style" hair...

[dark stevie]

i hit that send button...i just want to say that i am totally blown away by how friendly and helpful those of you who have posted have been...i never had cause or skills to get on here beore...further, i didn't really think i had anything to add...you have the best pictures on here, too..and little "treasured tidbits" of info...thanks to all of you again for your kindness...(i'm gonna try to do this smiling face over here, i hope it works...):laugh::wavey: (that doesn't look right) i hit the button and...oh well...lmao at myself i'm so wilma

[GarboSpeaks!]

That's off the hook that dedication! There is hope for us nutso people who've seen a billion and a half shows! lmao. If David, myslf or any of the others that spend serious dough to city & state hop for shows don't meet her this outing, I throw in the towel! :lol:

Don't throw in your towel just yet Anita..:laugh: Im not meaning to sound pessimistic here, but I look at it as, "if" it happens, it happens..I pay a lot of money to go and see Stevie, because I want to.. It would be nice to actually get to meet her, other than just be able to shake her hand for the Edge walk..But I'm certainly not going to bank on meeting her- as to me, that's like waiting for a kettle to boil.. LOL:lol:

[StevieRox2]

That's really awesome Melissa!

Stevie is NOT meeting anyone after the shows this little tour, as she's too busy. One of my friends gets to see her regularly, and she's not even allowed to see her this stint. :distress:

I hear ya! I'm hot/cold with this issue. One side of me is like all the money in the world is worth being able to see SN frequently w/ no need of a "payoff" meeting w/ her.
The other (EVIL) lol part of me says jeez...you'd think I could have some meager run in encounter w/ her ala LB & the meetings I've had w/ Mick. Cause back when, you'd get that if you paid to go to the AHI Benefit. For that I always figured $1000 would get me multiple SN shows and I'd MAYBE get a chance...vs ONE show and the big finale. But now even that opp is no longer available. JeezLouise! :laugh:

For the Honda Benefit in February, you could get a meet and greet with her if you bought a whole table of tickets. For a table of 10 (at $1500 each, I believe, at the platinum table), I think only 2 people would get the meeting opportunity.

The radio station that sponsored the show at DTE was having a contest to go backstage and meet Stevie...... I got to the venue too late to enter :mad: The contest also upgraded people to the front row.....

Well at least she has met with her on a regular basis already!

[StevieRox2]

She just met with her in Reading and saw Stevie playing a black guitar. This tour - no backstage passes, even for this Stevie's Sister of The Moon. Which makes me wonder what's up - no backstage passes, her not wanting pictures taken of her at DTE.
