I logged on to my local newschannel website and found this article about Crow being asked by Stevie to join the band. It was in the entertainment section. Seems like old news to me. Maybe the media machine is being dusted off and drug out of the closet in preparation for the Unleashed tour?

Nicks disappointed by Crow snub

Crow recently denied reports she was invited to play with the legendary group ahead of their upcoming first tour in five years, labelling the reports "rumors".
But singer Nicks insists she was desperate for Crow to join them onstage and invited her on the tour, but claims the star turned down the offer over the band's hectic schedule.
Nicks tells Msnbc.com, “I explained to Sheryl what it was like to be in the group - that it’s all-encompassing. Like on 2003’s Say You Will tour, we went out expecting to do 40 shows, and it turned in to 135 shows. So Sheryl called me and said, ‘I’ll have to pass.’ As Stevie Nicks, I was disappointed. As her friend, I told her she made the right decision.”
