Why does the tour have to open on the damn west coast! She won't hit the stage until midnight east coast time.
So do we have anyone confirmed posting for us? I'm sure if not from our community I'm sure one of the other social media outlets will have some people posting stuff.

You're absolutely right!! I also heard she's throwing caution to the wind by adding in the "runnin' in the shadows" version of "Gold Dust Woman" followed by a fiery version of "I Need To Know".

Phoenix, AZ is Mountain, however Arizona does not observe Daylight Savings, which Pacific is currently on, so Pacific Daylight time is the same as Mountain Standard time in Arizona.

Wow, no grand, dramatic closing ballad. I was wondering if She Loves Him Still might get that slot.
sorcerer999
10-25-2016, 10:55 PM
I can't believe she's doing both "Wild Heart" and "Crying In The Night"!!! I'm also excited about "Belle Fleur"!!! :]
Disappointed there's no "All The Beautiful Worlds" or "24 Karat Gold" as I think they would have sounded amazing live...but maybe she rehearsed them and they didn't work out?
Or maybe she actually IS doing the "alternating set list" idea and Denver's show on Thursday will be different.
Regardless, I'm happy there are five new songs she's never performed live, and two (Gold and Braid and Leather & Lace) that she hasn't done in quite a long time.
It will be interesting to see what gets dropped and replaced with "Landslide" and "Ho Still My Love" after the first four or five shows. :laugh:
Hawkeye
10-25-2016, 10:57 PM
Mixed on this. Blown away with gold and braid. VERY dissapointed Enchanted is in the set taking up space. Crying in the night is another cool surprise despite not caring for the song. Very disappointed in 3 24 kg songs two of which being If you were my love and belle fleur which I didn't want. I like the overall flow of the set, which Rhiannon and L and L being the encores.
But yea, minor complaints but a very decent and varied enough setlist to have met my expectations. Plus it's really long if she really does them all. Maybe we'll get more 24KG as the tour goes on.

Another noteworthy observation - She's performing TWENTY SONGS, which she has never done before!!! :woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:
I am usually one of the first people to stand up for Stevie and I hate being negative, but I have to say that I am kind of disappointed that four of her solo albums get no recognition in this set. Also, Annabel Lee??? Meh.
I'm with you on that one. Once again, no love for TOSOTM or "Rooms On Fire". :( Sadly, nothing from RAL, either...but how much do you wanna bet she'll pull out a bunch of songs from those two records when (or if) they get the deluxe treatment and she's goes out to do a "cash grab" tour to promote it? :laugh: There's a very good reason this tour is very "Bella Donna/Wild Heart-centric" - Gotta promote those upcoming deluxe editions!!!
In regards to TISL, I'm glad she gave "Sorcerer" and "Fall From Grace" a rest. They needed to go...but again, a little disappointed the title track didn't show up. Also bummed that "New Orleans" and "Annabelle Lee" (my two least fave songs from IYD) are taking up slots in the set... BUT YAY FOR "MOONLIGHT"!!! :nod:
KenshiMaster16
10-25-2016, 11:21 PM
Amazing how well Bella Donna has held up live after all these friggin' years. She's doing it so much justice too despite not hitting some of those same notes the way she used to.
And Wild Heart.....ugh. Such a special thing to witness. Probably the best thing she's pulled out in quite a long while.

They really "stepped it up" in regards to her background FX and props!!! I'm really loving the "Studio 54" light show that happens during "Stand Back"...
...and the descending "spherical lanterns" at the beginning of "If You Were My Love". LOVE IT!!!
And speaking of "IYWML", wasn't it gorgeous?!!! That's yet another song I thought I would never hear her sing live. :]
So far, this is shaping up to be a fun set and memorable tour.

The only thing i would change is that new backup singer. Too loud and dominating. She is not the lead singer.

L&L sounds great! She hasn't been flat all night. Sure she's doing her "shout singing" on a lot of parts, but she's been more on key here than I've seen her in awhile, including her appearances on Ellen/James/AGT/etc.
Now if she can just make it through this whole tour without getting sick or have vocal issues or dropping songs, we'll all be happy campers! :D

Even thought Starshine sounded awesome. I am surprised no RAL or TISL songs and even though I would have loved Twisted, All The Beautiful Worlds, and 24 Karat Gold - the only real disappointment like I said is The Dealer. I've waited my whole life to hear that song live. But I get to hear New Orleans - or I better by the time she hits Chicago anyway. What an awesome set!!!!

There are honestly no words to describe how good Tonights Show was. She was everything tonight. That endlessly youthful cool rock chick fairy godmother good White Witch amazing singer songwriter woman of amazing strength and talent that we all know that she is. hearing wild heart and Belladonna life brought me to tears I was so completely overwhelmed as my whole body and soul felt it so deeply. And her doing Moonlight Tonight was one of the best performances I've ever seen from her and I have seen her many many times. She talked about the set list and how she wanted to try it here in Phoenix where she has written a lot of her songs and feel safe and it was just really beautiful. She is still the hero that I have always needed her to be in that she always has been and as we all know heroes are hard to find :-)

I must say, the set list looks pretty good, but of course the DJ in me thinks it could have been sequenced better. I have watched a few clips. Crying in the Night and Wild Heart sound good to these ears. I agree with the one fan that Enchanted is taking up space. With the inclusion of Starshine, we don't need Enchanted, as they are similar sounding songs. I saw a clip of Gold and Braid and while there is a warmth to it (like seeing an old friend that you haven't seen in a long time) it just doesn't have the punch a good opener needs. The song is better suited in the #2 or #3 slot (depending on what song it is following). Outside the Rain has been built up over the years to be this grand opening, so now to have it later in the set just seems less impressive. Perhaps just drop it unless it is used as the opener. Also, I can't remember if Stevie said she was going to represent ALL of her solo albums, but obviously that isn't the case. I would have liked to have seen a few more choices from other albums. I'm sure we've all heard by now the Street Angel bootleg tour rehearsals featuring Long Way To Go and Ooh My Love, which sound fantastic. So with all of that said, I just couldn't resist coming up with what I think would have been a better set list. This is realistic and totally doable for Stevie.
01. Starshine
02. Dreams
03. Gold and Braid
04. Long Way To Go
05. Leather and Lace
06. The Dealer (swap out with Belle Fleur at various shows)
07. If Anyone Falls
08. Stop Draggin' My Heart Around
09. 24 Karat Gold
10. Sorcerer (feat. Marilyn Martin) *
11. Moonlight
12. Wild Heart / Bella Donna
13. Crying in the Night
14. Stand Back
15. Ooh My Love
16. Edge of Seventeen
17. Rhiannon
18. Carousel
* I would like to see this in the 1984 Street of Fire arrangement. She could bring Marilyn center stage with her and sing it as a duet. Sharon and Lori have been showcased plenty over the years, no reason she can't do the same for Marilyn.

That's interesting - I also agree that Starshine would make a really upbeat, attention grabbing opener.
The encore isn't exactly upbeat either - Rhiannon is not the alimighty tour de force it once was, so I would rejig things a little bit.
Using Stevie's song choices, I would do something like this:
1. Starshine
2. Enchanted

I dunno, it seems like the alternating setlist might actually be a thing. There are only a couple of songs from 24K Gold, which doesn't seem to be Stevie's MO in recent years. It's certainly a more daring set than she's done in a long time. I'm sorry I won't be able to see her on this tour.

Truly can't get over last night's show (and THANK YOU) to those who live streamed it.
The setlist truly blew my mind - and makes me wonder whether she in fact will follow through with alternate setlists.
I literally broke out into tears when she sang WH/BD - truly gorgeous. Hard to believe she didn't do these live sooner. The stripped down version of Moonlight (with her white coat!!) was stunning. Starlight and Belle Fleur rocked. And the stage (and hanging lights!) were absolutely gorgeous.
Bravo to Stevie for taking some risks with this tour - it's definitely paying off, and I can't wait to see her next week in Atlanta!

I feel sorry for the "so called Stevie fans" posting over in the Rumours forum, who are boycotting this tour and not attending SIMPLY because she's not in the studio with Fleetwood Mac. :rolleyes:
When the inevitable happens (when she goes into the studio to record with them next year after her tour is over) - and IT WILL happen, like always - these "fans" will be kicking themselves for missing this tour, which is probably the most eclectic and interesting tour she's done it DECADES! :nod:

I saw this setlist this morning (I do live in another timezone aka Europe) at my breakfast and soon found the Periscope-stream. Was able to listen to a few songs while cycling to the railway station to get to work ... the trains sung the same kind of blues, but Crying in the Night almost became Crying on my Bike.
Just wow ! Never ever thought hearing this as a live performance.
I think this setlist is just great. And she transcribed it very well, be saying that she now had the song all the songs instead of just 1/3.
At work i counted my savings, checken airline-faired and hotels and my agenda ... but too bad, a trip to the US to any concert is not whitin reach :-(
Hopefully the YouTubes vids and sites like DimeADozen will be filled with recordings....

Let's face it, there's something downright magical to Stevie Nicks.
When I think of Nicks, three things come to mind: Fleetwood Mac, the sexiest voice on the planet, and magic, probably in that order. Even the way I had the opportunity to see Stevie Nicks and Pretenders on Tuesday night at a nearly sold-out Talking Stick Resort Arena was magical — a last-minute assignment to review the show.
I was all in for Pretenders alone. Granted, Chrissie Hynde is the only original Pretender here after many generations of different lineups, the newest being completely different from any previous incarnations. It's her show though, and it has been for some time. I was particularly excited because Pretenders just dropped their first new album in eight years, Alone, last week. The set opened with the title track, which sounds like an ode to Iggy Pop with a hypnotic Stooges keyboard line. It was followed by the forthcoming single "Gotta Wait" and then by "Down The Wrong Way," from her 2014 solo outing Stockholm. The first album deep cut "Private Life" was something of a surprise, and the crowd loved every second of it.
Hynde slowed things down for a bit with "Hymn to Her," a beautifully haunting ballad, from the Pretenders' 1986 album Get Close, that she dedicated to Stevie. It was a dreamy number immediately blown away by the following back-to-back-to-back hits "Back On The Chain Gang," "Don't Get Me Wrong," and "I'll Stand By You," all far exceeding expectations in both quality and integrity. The set contained further hits like "Brass In Pocket," deeper cuts like "Middle of the Road" and "Mystery Achievement," new single "Holy Commotion," as well as their take on The Kinks' "Stop Your Sobbing," which was the Pretenders' first single. The band finished the evening with a cover of the Jimi Hendrix obscurity "Room Full of Mirrors." It appears that Chrissie Hynde can rock with the best of them. Oh, and since it was the main talking point everywhere by everyone after that electrifying set, Chrissie Hynde is doing incredibly fine at 65.
It was soon time for the Enchantress herself, Stevie the Good Witch. The crowd was visibly excited, this was their generation's bewitching chanteuse. The one thing the crowd wasn't going to get was a lot of Stevie talking this time around, and she commented more than a few times that she was trying to keep her banter to a minimum. Still, though her vignettes surrounding each song were rather brief, they only served to enhance and evening that dug as deep into her recording history as possible. She made it very clear that this tour was going to be different, that this was going to be about songs not often played, that fans have pleaded to hear live for years, with some hits thrown in for good measure.

Stevie Nicks Mystifies Phoenix on 10/25/16
To be honest, it's one of the finer concert concepts going these days. I'd pay good money to see Neil Diamond do some weird stuff from his early days, or Neil Young for that matter — the idea being to appeal to the diehard fans with the deep cuts and obscurities. I'm not sure that anyone who is a fan of Nicks' entire career, with the Mac and solo, could have asked for a better evening or a better selection of songs. Opening with a cult favorite like "Gold and Braid" blew my mind nearly as much as the stage setting, which brought to mind a variety show set from the 1970s. It would progress just as the set would. The crowd was on its feet for a song that's never been properly recorded in a studio. The second song was 1983's "If Anyone Falls," a minor single from her second solo album. I hadn't wanted to concentrate at all on the setlist for this concert, but it became apparent the set list was the experience.
"Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" didn't feature Tom Petty this time around, but Chrissie Hynde returned to the stage for a magnificent duet and one of the highlights of the evening. I'd say it gave me goosebumps, but I had those for nearly the entire set. The obscurity "Belle Fleur" followed, a demo from her first album that she reworked on her most recent album 24 Karat Gold: Songs From The Vault. "Outside the Rain" was showing favor to Nicks' first solo album Bella Donna and rightfully so; it was an amazing debut outing.
Another detail should be mentioned at only five songs in, Stevie had gone through at least three capes or cloaks. This would continue throughout the evening. The crowd would go especially wild when she would dance and spin, edges of her cloak in hand.
The set was designed with pacing in mind, and dropping the first Fleetwood Mac song in the sixth slot was a good call, but so was the seamless transition from "Outside The Rain" to "Dreams." The crowd was on its feet. Some were handling it better than others, some were clearly getting drunk, some were approached by security. Still, you could taste the eruption of joy that washed over the audience. That said, for the most part, this crowd was every bit as excited about the Stevie hits and obscurities, like the title track from 1983's Wild Heart making its live debut and Bella Donna's title track being played for the first time since the early '80s. She wove her magic and dabbled in the mysticism of her own back catalog, pulling "Annabel Lee," "New Orleans," and "Moonlight (A Vampire's Dream)" from her 2011 album In Your Dreams, while mixing them with early tracks like "Enchanted" or revamped demos like "Starshine" and "If You Were My Love." Meanwhile, the Stevie Nicks live staple "Stand Back," which was inspired by Prince's "Little Red Corvette," was made all the more meaningful with images of Prince in the impressive light projections.
Going as deep into her catalog as there is, she pulled "Crying In The Night" from 1973's tragically out-of-print album Buckingham Nicks. It's a song that's never been played live before, but apparently Waddy Wachtel, Nicks' musical director and longtime guitarist, had his heart set on taking this one out on the road. Nicks unleashed another Fleetwood Mac number with "Gold Dust Woman," and the crowd returned to their feet, if any had sat down. It was a fantastic number and a total nostalgia trip. Wachtel nailed the guitar part in no uncertain terms. The set ended with "Edge of Seventeen" from her first solo album and further projected tributes to Prince, before she bid us her first adieu.
For the encore, I expected a Mac attack, and when the opening chords of "Rhiannon" began, I was assured. I half-expected "Landslide" to follow, but something much better happened. She told the story of how she wrote the song "Leather and Lace" for Waylon Jennings and Jesse Colter, but when she found out they were divorcing she pulled it back. That's why their album Leather and Lace did not feature the song of the same name, which in my house was quite a mystery until we had both of the albums and probably heard something about it on the radio. It was an amazing song on Bella Donna, but live, over 35 years later it's even better and more moving, and Ms. Nicks finally moved this man to tears with a sentimental surprise ending to a truly spectacular evening.
Critic's Notebook
Last Night: Stevie Nicks and the Pretenders at Talking Stick Resort Arena
The Crowd: I haven't been to a show in a while where I feel especially young. Often, I may well be the oldest dude there and I'm guessing that 80 percent of this crowd exceeded my years. That said there were kids of all ages from 15 to 93, but the bulk of the crowd was rich white money that grew up in the 1970s who the Older Boomers called the Me Generation. This was their arena, this was their music, this was the sound of the suburbs in the 1970s and 1980s.
Overheard: "I hope I look that good at 65." "Honey, don't be ridiculous, you don't look that good now."
Random Notebook Dump One:
I figured out what bothers me about the name Talking Stick Resort Arena. It's confusing; I don't know half the time if people are talking about the arena or the actual resort and casino. It should just be called Talking Stick Arena. Everyone gets the association.
Random Notebook Dump Two:
I was going to mention the number of times I got chills on this goosebump-inducing aural adventure, but I couldn't even keep track after 10, and that was halfway through the Pretenders set. I should make an appointment with a neurologist about this.

As she stood on stage at Talking Stick Resort Arena, addressing the crowd on the opening night of the 24K Gold Tour, Stevie Nicks recalled an off-the-cuff remark she made at some kind of special event leading up to the concert.
“The great thing,” she said, with a laugh, “is that I get to sing all the songs. And then I thought about it and I went, ‘And the not great thing is that I get to sing all of the songs.’ It’s crazy. After singing only one-third of three-thirds for three years."
Then, on Tuesday, Oct. 25, her first solo outing since Fleetwood Mac finished the On with the Show tour last November, she reassured the fans with, "I just want you to know that I’m up here and I’m strong but I’m a little freaked out. Just a little. But I’m in my hometown, Phoenix, where I wrote a lot of my songs.”
There’s a special rapport she's developed through the years with fans here. That's why it came no surprise that she would choose to launch her tour here, testing the waters with a “very different show” in an arena packed with fans who made her feel as much at home as one can feel in an arena packed with fans.

4 songs debuted live
As she said at the end of the night, “You’ve let me know that this is gonna work and that I’m gonna be OK. And I appreciate that. So take care of yourself. Stay strong. Don’t watch the news. It’s depressing.”
See? She’s funny, too. Not just sincere and gracious.
What makes this such “a very different show” is that she’s playing songs she’s never played before and others that she hasn’t touched in ages, setting the tone for the 20-song performance with the old-school Memphis soul vibe of a track she hadn’t played in 16 years, “Gold and Braid.”
“Bella Donna” was back in the set list for the first time since the very early ‘80s, and four songs made their live debut – “Belle Fleur,” “Wild Heart,” “If You Were My Love” and the Buckingham Nicks song, “Crying in the Night.”
Nicks marveled at how long it’s been since that first album she recorded with then-boyfriend Lindsey Buckingham.
“Forty-three years,” she said, before recalling, “This was gonna be the single off the Buckingham Nicks record. It was so long ago, I don’t actually remember if it ever was the single or made it out. I know I remember sitting in the basement and working this song out.”
She talked a lot, at one point joking, “Someday, I may do a show where I don’t even sing. I’m just gonna talk.” And that was only after realizing how much she had been talking and telling the crowd, "You know, it’s like I’m not really supposed to talk this much.”
That’s the conventional wisdom, anyway. Keep the show moving. Or as people have been known to shout, “More rock, less talk.”
'You have been like great friends'

In practice? All that talking only serves to draw you deeper into Nicks’ world, creating a level of intimacy that’s hard to come by in a room that size. As Nicks said at one point, “I’m glad I was able to share this first night of trying to get this all in my head with you. You have been like great friends sitting in my living room listening to my new demos."
And those demos sounded great. Nicks’ voice was in beautiful shape throughout, and the musicians she’s assembled for this tour (including Tempe’s Al Ortiz on bass and Nicks’ longtime musical director Waddy Wachtel on guitar) did a brilliant job of fleshing out the songs, from the bass-driven groove of the opening numbers, “Gold and Braid” and “If Anyone Falls,” to the three Fleetwood Mac songs they played, “Gold Dust Woman,” “Rhiannon” and “Dreams.”
And as those Fleetwood selections would suggest, it wasn’t all about the road less traveled. In addition to those relative obscurities, they dusted off a handful of her biggest hits, including “Edge of Seventeen,” “Stand Back” and a beautiful, bittersweet “Leather and Lace,” her Don Henley duet, which featured gorgeous harmonies from Nicks’ female backup singers and brought the encore to a finish after one last story.
“I didn’t write it with Don Henley,” Nicks recalled, “but I was going out with Don Henley so I would play it for him and he would say, ‘That sucks.’ And I would say, ‘OK (because you’re, like, an Eagle)’ and then I’d go back and I’d work on it. And this went on for, like, a couple months. And one day, he said, ‘It’s good.’ And I went ‘OK, so we’re done?’ And he said, ‘We’re done.’”
She also dusted off her other big ‘80s duet, the Tom Petty collaboration “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around,” with Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders standing in for Petty. It was great to see those two iconic artists share a stage, especially considering a quote I read from Nicks before the show: “When my manager said, ‘What about The Pretenders?’ I’m like, ‘Would they even go with me?’ And he said, ‘I think they would!'”

The setlist truly blew my mind - and makes me wonder whether she in fact will follow through with alternate setlists.
I have a feeling she might make good on the alternate set list thing. I hope she does because I would love to hear Mabel.

Agreed - this song deserves to be performed LIVE! I can't figure out how that song layed dormant for so many years in a vault! And if it's not bordering on greedy, I'd also like to have another duet, a second one that is, with Stevie on one of The Pretenders songs if they could pull it off. I think Stevie could pull off a great back up to "I'll Stand By You."

I've been crying watching these.
Wild Heart/Bella Donna just killed me... Now I'm just enjoying all the others. I'm so in awe. I can't wait to see Stevie live. She has exceeded all expectations.
And especially hearing the songs she's never or only rarely played, such as Bella Donna, it's like connecting with this familiar part of myself since I've only heard it on the album so many times!

I hear you. I skipped the Gold Dust Tour and waited until there she was touring to support new music. I saw Fleetwood Mac last year since Christine was back (and they added Seven Wonders back into the set).
This year, I'm seeing 24 Karat Gold with my best friend. It's the first time we've seen a Stevie show together even though we met because of her. To me this set list tops even the Enchanted tour (which was pretty goddamned special).
If the Mac or Stevie tour behind new music again, I'll reconsider, but if this is the last tour with new material, it'll probably be my swan song.

There's a one minute video here (http://24-karat-gold-tour.tumblr.com/post/152327956961/crystallineknowledge-belle-fleur-2-24).
My two favorite songs from "24 Karat Gold" are the title track and "All The Beautiful Worlds", I hope she adds those in upcoming shows. Also, I want to say I agree with what someone already said, she should only do solo songs and omit the FM singles.
Considering she's holding up the new FM album, why not just focus on your solo albums girl? Yeah, that was shade.

Stevie Nicks 10.25.16 Beneath the Desert Sky 10/25/2016
https://beneathadesertsky.com/2016/10/26/stevie-nicks-10-25-16/
Warm and generous, like a gracious host opening her home to visitors. Or like a lengthy visit with a favorite aunt that you haven’t seen in way too long – if the aunt wrote killer music, of course.
That’s the feeling I came away with from the Stevie Nicks concert at Talking Stick Resort Arena last night. Nicks launched her 24k Gold Tour in Phoenix on October 25, 2016. Backed by 6 piece band and two vocalists, Nicks delivered a terrific performance to open the tour. Most importantly and impressively, she made each person in attendance feel as if she was performing just for them – as if they were hanging out with her in her living room listening to demo tapes, which it became apparent was really her objective all along.
Warm and generous are appropriate adjectives to describe a number of different aspects of the concert,
•Nicks’ voice was in fine form. Her voice was warm and enveloping, especially on her slower, more melodic songs. While she’s obviously not the same singer she was 40 years ago (and who is), her voice has matured in a way that is velvety and textured with plenty of inflection and nuance. And it remains as distinctively hers as its always been.
•Nicks’ commentary and banter was both engaging and entertaining. Nicks shared the very personal moments in her life that inspired her music and, particularly, her lyrics. Whether it was writing Leather and Lace while dating Don Henley or writing New Orleans while glued to her television watching news coverage of Hurricane Katrina, Nicks shared the backstory for many of the songs she performed. Nicks expressed concern several times that she was talking too much throughout the show and late in the concert even joked about someday doing a show “where I don’t even sing – I’m just going to talk.” The way that she shared the history of her music, however, only served to make both her and her music more personable, approachable and endearing.
•Nicks’ remarks conveyed a sense of vulnerability and exposure that we rarely hear from artists on stage. She was very open about her fears and trepidations going into a tour in which she’s performing songs that she has never previously performed live and in which she’s performing solo without the support of her Fleetwood Mac bandmates. At one point she acknowledged being “a little freaked out” by what she called a “very different” type of show. Hearing Nicks express the types of concerns that all of us have felt at one time or another simply served to humanized her and make her feel kinda’ sorta’ just like one of us.
•Nicks was visibly appreciative of the fans’ reaction to the show and the material she and her musical director had selected. While it’s standard fare for every artist to thank the audience for attending and declare their love for the fans, it seemed just a little more genuine and sincere coming from Nicks. It appeared that she truly didn’t know if the audience was going to warmly receive a concert that featured never-before-played and rarely-played tracks from long ago albums. After finishing the concert with Leather and Lace, Nicks seemed reassured and took an extra moment to thank the audience for letting her know “that this is going to work and be OK” and with that she once again expressed her gratitude.
All of these elements came together in perfect harmony to create a wonderful, intimate concert that pleased both hard-core and casual fans alike. For hard-core Nicks fans, the show simply reaffirmed why they’ve always loved her as much as they do. For more casual fans, the concert gave them a whole lot of reasons to deepen their appreciation for both her personally and her music.
I’ve always thought of Stevie Nicks’ music as big – big voice coupled with big musical arrangements. The staging of the show did a terrific job of matching that bigness. There was a large video screen at the back of the stage flanked by two video “frames” on either side. Large pendant lights dropped from the ceiling to frame the front of the stage. Spotlights illuminated the crowd in front of the stage which had the effect of almost incorporating the first five or seven rows of fans into the staging. Everything about the show was big which did a wonderful job of matching and enhancing Nicks’ performance.
Other highlights from the concert included,
•Nicks performed four songs that she had never performed live on-stage before so it was great being the first audience to hear her perform Wild Heart, Belle Fleur, Crying in the Night and If You Were My Love.
•Nicks performed Belle Donna live for the first time in 25 years and proudly announced that she was wearing the original purple shawl from the photo on the back of the Bella Donna album cover.
•Chrissie Hynde came back out to the stage to perform Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around with Nicks. This could have been my favorite song of the entire set. Hynde and Nicks, each a star in her own right, coming together for this song was as special as it was powerful.
One last note about the concert – and not to read too much into this or make too big of a political statement – but in some ways the show reflected some of the broader undercurrents in American society and culture this election season. It was clearly a celebration of strong, successful women – with Chrissie Hynde leading the all-male Pretenders and Stevie Nicks being Stevie Nicks. But while Nicks’ 35 years of individual success was on full display, there was also a small tinge of the ways that she’s had to navigate the men in her life to get there, especially as reflected in the story she told about writing Leather and Lace. Nicks shared that she wrote the song while she was dating Don Henley but she wrote it on her own and not with him. She’d play the song for him while she worked on it and he’d respond “That sucks” until one day she played it for him and he acknowledged “It’s good.” She responded to him “Ok, so we’re done” and he replied, “We’re done.”
So as we quickly move towards the end of an election period in which a woman is a major party candidate for the first time and may be elected as President of the United States in a campaign that has featured more than its share of overt and subtle sexism, it seems fitting that two strong women triumphantly shared the stage. And maybe that’s why watching them perform Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around was as powerful as it was. The lyrics of the song clearly reflect the tension between the competing attitudes of “I know you really want to be your own girl” (as reflected by one of the major party candidates) and “You need someone looking after you” (as reflected by the other). If the current political environment and this 25-year-old song aren’t a prime example of Oscar Wilde’s declaration that life imitates art then I’m not sure what could ever be. I suspect that the strength and power of the two artists on stage at Talking Stick Resort Arena last night is a clear indicator of how that tension will likely ultimately be resolved.

I've just arrived home from my Houston tour date. I've practiced incredible self restraint over the last few days by staying off this board and NOT peaking at the set list. I'm truly happy that I didn't preview the set, because this was like seeing Stevie in the old days before internet. After a fantastic show, it's clear that The High Priestess is sticking to her promise of turning the set list UPSIDE DOWN. Much to the dismay of casual fans who came only to hear "Landslide" and "Dreams", Miss Nicks did not disappoint her hardcore base.
From the first strains of "Gold and Braid", it was clear that miss thing wasn't playing around. She was here to please those of us who've hung on her every word for the past 40 years. As suburban soccer moms and their bobble head daughters pined for "Landslide", Miss Stevie couldn't be bothered while tearing her way through "Moonlight", "Crying in the Night", and "New Orleans". Casual audience members were dumbfounded, at least in my section.
We posted, and she listened. This time out, Stevie Nicks means business! "Wild Heart" was gorgeous and transferred to stage perfectly. This tune should have been done years ago! I was like a kid in a candy store! Thank you, Stevie!!!!

Stevie Nicks and the Pretenders Kick Off 24 Karat Tour: Set Lists, Videos
By Jeff Giles October 27, 2016 10:48 AM
Stevie Nicks and the Pretenders started their package tour Oct. 25 in Phoenix, with Nicks delving deep into her catalog for a number of songs that hadn’t been played live in years — or ever.
Chrissie Hynde‘s latest iteration of the Pretenders is on the road in support of a new album, Alone, and their set list weaved between new songs, older singles (including hits like “Brass in Pocket” and “Back on the Chain Gang,” as well as 1986’s “Hymn to Her,” which Hynde dedicated to Nicks) and covers of the Kinks‘ “Stop Your Sobbing” and Jimi Hendrix‘s “Room Full of Mirrors.”
Hynde also made an appearance early in Nicks’ set, taking Tom Petty‘s vocal part during the night’s performance of “Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around” (which you can watch via the fan-shot footage above). As Nicks told the crowd, the night was a homecoming for her. “I just want you to know that I’m up here and I’m strong, but I’m a little freaked out,” she admitted. “Just a little. But I’m in my hometown, Phoenix, where I wrote a lot of my songs.”
Nicks revisited a number of the less-traveled tracks in her catalog during her set, setting the tone with her first performance of “Gold and Braid” in more than 15 years. The rest of the evening balanced solo and Fleetwood Mac hits against songs that had stayed offstage for decades — like “Bella Donna” — or she’d never performed previously at all, such as “Belle Fleur,” “Wild Heart,” “If You Were My Love” and the Buckingham Nicks cut “Crying in the Night,” which you can watch below.
<iframe width="630" height="354" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/jeMqftCpUoY" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Marveling that the long-deleted album is more than 40 years old, she told the audience, “This was gonna be the single off the Buckingham Nicks record. It was so long ago, I don’t actually remember if it ever was the single or made it out. I know I remember sitting in the basement and working this song out.”
As previously reported, Nicks and the Pretenders will remain on the road at least through Dec. 18, when they’re scheduled to close out their run with a show at the Forum in Los Angeles. “You’ve let me know that this is gonna work and that I’m gonna be okay. And I appreciate that,” Nicks told the audience at the end of her set. “So take care of yourself. Stay strong. Don’t watch the news. It’s depressing.”
