Wow, Stevie's really getting around lately and I love it. :blob2:

Well, there's another award show I'll have to watch. I don't usually watch them, but with all the Stevie and Lindsey action we've been getting lately, I've been watching them more and more.

Interesting. I wonder if she'll perform as a duo with another group/artist, or if she'll break out one of her country-tinged songs?

If I understood the article correctly, she's Lady Antebellum's "special guest."

I think Stevie has the crossover ability that Elvis Presley had and other Rock and Roll artists. I wish she would do more country. Her voice is one of a kind. It touches the heart and soul. I love Lady Antebellum and Stevie, so a special treat. I don't usually watch the award shows either, but will tune in to see our two Ladies. (Stevie and Lady A.);)

Eric Church, Lady Antebellum and Stevie Nicks to Perform at ACM Awards

cool! is this the award show where Lindsey was a presenter last year, followed by Keith Urban and Little Big Town doing the cover of The Chain? it was some country awards show but not sure which one.

well....when she played with Lady A. last year....I really WAS expecting her to do some of her country(ish) tunes...."leather and lace", "after the glitter fades", "that's alright", "think about it" "the highwayman".....I was kind of disappointed that noone were included. I think it would be appropriate and fantastic if she would do "After the Glitter" for the Country Awards show.

[So, if you have a little boy, does Stevie still buy cute clothes for your baby?]

The annual Academy of Country Music Awards telecast is usually pretty open about welcoming artists from genres other than country, so it's no surprise to hear that Stevie Nicks has joined the lineup for this year's show, which CBS will air live from Las Vegas on April 6.

Nicks will sing with Lady Antebellum during the telecast, which will also include live performances from Blake Shelton, Keith Urban, The Band Perry and Florida Georgia Line, among others.


Nicks joining Lady Anetbellum for the ACM Awards performance makes a lot of sense. After all, the Fleetwood Mac frontwoman appeared on CMT Crossroads with the group last year, and the two acts have stayed in touch and remained friends since then. In fact, Stevie has been spoiling Eisele, the baby daughter of Lady Antebellum singer Hillary Scott, by sending her gifts of fabulous baby clothes.

"She's definitely taken her wardrobe up a few notches than what she had originally," Scott told ABC News Radio last year.

Lady Antebellum and Stevie Nicks Singing "Golden" on Sunday Night's ACM Awards

Posted 2014-04-02 http://krvn.com/news/music/?more=34732505


Frank Micelotta/PictureGroup

Lady Antebellum and Stevie Nicks will perform a new duet version of the Lady A song "Golden" on this Sunday's ACM Awards. It's the title track from Lady Antebellum's latest album; the new duet version of the song is now available digitally.

"Golden" was a favorite of Stevie's when she teamed up with Lady Antebellum for an installment of CMT Crossroads last year.

The 49th Annual ACM Awards airs Sunday night at 8 ET on CBS.

Here's a little more news about the performance from Hit Fix Music:

*Sing along with Lady Antebellum and Stevie Nicks: Little Big Town are really the country equivalent of Fleetwood Mac (and they do a killer version of “The Chain” to stoke those comparisons), but Lady A comes a close second with their killer co-ed harmonies. As anyone who saw Lady A and Nicks’ episode of CMT’s “Crossroads” last year knows, they make beautiful music together. Expect them to do a mash up of a Fleetwood Mac tune into a Lady A song.

It could be. Landslide was already on the country charts with the Dixie Chicks years ago.

Again its a hot FM tune that everybody knows. I'll be shocked if they play something else from FM or any of her solo tunes.

I would love to hear a countrified Standback with banjos and steel guitar .Sorry guys.

Stevie or the host can give FM a plug by mentioning the upcoming FM tour on the show.

From a musical standpoint, the progressions of Landslide and Golden are similar and the relation of the melody is such that they could easily be played/sung on the same key and transition from one to another easily.

This was posted at FleetwoodMac News and Reviews. Is it the lighting or does it appear Stevie's eyes are teared up. I don't know if this is when she got the big reception and gave that beautiful little smile. She seemed so small clinging to Hillary Scott's hand. Perhaps the hand thing was mutual for support between friends. I just noticed how sparkly her eyes are. Beautiful lady.

Stevie Nicks & Hillary Scott Are Both Bewitching In Black At The ACM Awards!

Stevie Nicks and Hillary Scott arrived at the Academy of Country Music Awards together on Sunday, and both ladies looked bewitching in mostly black ensems!

Miz Nicks went for a simple, all-black number that showed a seksi glimpse of shoulder, while Hillary's frock featured white sleeves and zig-zag panels down the sides.

Each musician incorporated a few pieces of statement jewelry, and Stevie finished up her look with ombre shaded aviators.

Lookin' good, gals!!

http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/the-615/6039723/watch-lady-antebellum-stevie-nicks-golden-rhiannon-acm-awards-video

"I love Lady Antebellum, and to me, this song is their 'Landslide’ because it's just that spectacular," Nicks said earlier in the week in an announcement for a special release of their joint version of "Golden."

Nicks' appearance at the ceremony precedes a North American tour with Fleetwood Mac that, for the first time in 16 years, features singer-keyboardist Christine McVie as part of the lineup, after rejoining the group in January.

Lady Antebellum's star has continued to rise on the country charts, returning to No. 1 on the Country Airplay chart last month with "Compass," which received songwriting credits from the likes of production duo Stargate (Beyonce's "Irreplaceable," Katy Perry's "Firework"). "Compass" is off "Golden," the trio's May 2013 release, which also hit No. 1 -- including a top spot on the Billboard 200, Lady Antebellum's third such album.

The Nicks-Antebellum collab came about after both parties performed together on "CMT Crossroads" last September. They tore through country chart-toppers "Need You Now" and "Just a Kiss," as well as rock standards "Landslide" and "Rhiannon" -- the latter with Scott singing the song's higher melody.

http://www.zap2it.com/blogs/academy_of_country_music_awards_2014_stevie_nicks_told_christine_mcvie_to_get_a_trainer-2014-04

2014's first big reunion is Fleetwood Mac's: Christine McVie, a founding member of the group and the singer-songwriter behind many of the group's hits, will tour with Fleetwood Mac starting in the fall. On the 2014 Academy of Country Music Awards red carpet on Sunday (April 6), Stevie Nicks got a chance to comment on her bandmate's return.

"She had us all completely convinced she wouldn't come back," Nicks replied when asked about the reunion, adding that she told McVie: "'It's your band. I don't really think you have to ask.'"

There was only one caveat that Nicks had for McVie: "Get a trainer," she said, referring to the tough job of fronting a band on an international tour.

Apparently, McVie is up to the challenge. The band confirmed to Billboard in January that the singer would return to tour for the first time since 1998. The new tour is expected to begin in September 2014.

^^^Thanks for posting the vids. I love this heart-warming performance. She does look a bit nervous at times, but the band are so supportive of her, you can tell they love her to bits. Golden is a very sweet song, with wonderful vocals and harmonies. It was great to hear the appreciation from the audience too.

I agree as Golden is a beautiful song. I was shocked Rhiannon started playing. Actually, I was shocked by many of the performances last night...and wondering is this what country music sounds like now? The whole night seemed to have a rock n roll feel...I mean I thought Keith Urban was country.....and last night it didn't sound like country to me....more rock.

I agree as Golden is a beautiful song. I was shocked Rhiannon started playing. Actually, I was shocked by many of the performances last night...and wondering is this what country music sounds like now? The whole night seemed to have a rock n roll feel...I mean I thought Keith Urban was country.....and last night it didn't sound like country to me....more rock. I don't know though as I am so unfamiliar with country music.

I'm not a fan of country music but I did watch most of the "pre Stevie" performances and enjoyed most of them.

Yes My speed is into the classics from the 1930's to the 1980's like Merle Haggard,George Jones,Tammy W,Loretta Lynn.Dolly,Kenny,Judds ,Hank and Hank Jr.

The list goes on.

The show was OK.The Highlights were Stevie with Lady A of course .Merle Haggard George Strait on the show.Some of the tunes showcased sucked.

Shakira was great on the show and looked stunning .Sheryl Crow and Darius Rucker were great too.



I'm not a fan of Luke Bryan Rascal Flatts,Big and Rich.




Heres a song that sums it up.

Who is going to fill their shoes.No .Taylor is not going to fill Tammy Wynette's shoes and so on.

It was great in the 1970's and 80's when Linda Ronstadt,Eagles,Poco,Pure Prairie League ,38 Special.Allman Bros,Bellamy Bros and other rockers cross to the country charts.

Now country is rock and roll.

Enjoyed the performance but I would have rather heard the entire version of Golden, as it's such a beautiful song and has just been released as a single. Rhiannon seemed rather out of place at a country music awards show.

I was surprised that Golden was shortened so. I don't think I was disappointed, but just surprised.

The debut TV performances of new singles from Miranda Lambert and Lady Antebellum were crowd favorites, with the latter bringing Stevie Nicks on stage to join them and busting into a few verses of the Fleetwood Mac hit “Rihannon” which brought the whole theater to their feet.

Which performers stole Sunday's ACM show?

Lady Antebellum with Stevie Nicks, Golden/Rhiannon (****). Two acts that know how to make their live vocals sound magical blended into a dream country-rock quartet, first on an acoustic version of the Lady A single then with a full band on the Fleetwood Mac classic.

Stevie was perfect.

However, Hillary was pretty pitchy throughout which really screwed with the harmonies of Golden. Still enjoyed the performance but I kind of cringed during that last chorus.

Timeless as a kiss'! Stevie Nicks and Lady Antebellum wow crowd with duet as they sing Fleetwood Mac's Rhiannon at ACM Awards

By Jessica Earnshaw

Stevie Nicks teamed up with Lady Antebellum for a special performance at The Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday evening.

Singing the trio's latest hit Golden, the Fleetwood Mac star was seen holding hands with lead vocalist Hillary Scott at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

The talented stars then went on to belt out the group's classic song Rhiannon, after first duetting on TV show CMT Crossroads in September.

'I love Lady Antebellum, and to me, this song is their 'Landslide’ because it's just that spectacular,' Stevie said last week ahead of the release of their joint version of Golden, Billboard.com reported.

The 65-year-old is currently preparing to tour North America with Fleetwood Mac alongside singer and keyboardist Christine McVie, who rejoined them in January.

She arrived on the red carpet for the star-studded bash in an off-the-shoulder black dress, slouchy boots and sunglasses, before posing with Shakira and Hillary.

Her Can't Remember To Forget You companion, who was dressed in a racy blue dress, also sang a duet on the night with Blake Shelton.

The 37-year-old later took to Twitter to say: '@BlakeShelton you killed it tonight at the @ACMawards, was so much fun performing "Medicine" with you! Shak'.

The awards saw George Strait, Miranda Lambert, Keith Urban and Kacey Musgraves carry home the best trophies, but Miranda's husband, Blake, and his co-host Luke Bryan may have been the biggest winners.

At one point, he joked that the show was their tryout for David Letterman's job, and they backed it up with some truly funny moments.

At one point, the pair, who have given themselves the celebrity name 'Bluke,' suggested they recreate Ellen DeGeneres' selfie moment from the Academy Awards, before they walked down the front row rejecting one star after another.

Strait won his second entertainer of the year award — 25 years after he won his first — which was not unexpected.

The 61-year-old is a few months from retiring from the road and won the same trophy at the rival Country Music Association Awards five months ago. But the ACMs entertainer award is voted by the public and some wondered if Strait's older fan base might vote.

'I've always said I have the best fans in the world,' he told the crowd. 'I heard this was a fan-voted thing, so I rest my case.'

No problem! I tried for ages to find a really good multi-purpose capture tool for free and ended up giving up. I bought one instead and it's fabulous. I got it awhile ago when it was on sale and because I wanted ALL the products. However, there are options to get individual bits of software and not all seven.

http://applian.com/replay-capture-suite/ details what all the products are etc.

If you're just wanting the product which will record whatever you want onscreen (doesn't have to be streaming on the web, even) then this is what you're looking for. Have linked to this because it tells you the price whereas the information page doesn't: https://applian.com/order/order_RVC5?
