Detroit Show
 

I freaking love these clips from Landslide with Kid Rock surprising Stevie. Its so funny she was like totally caught off guard.

I'd be a little freaked out if someone who looked like this walked onstage :lol:

The look on her face is priceless right there. I wonder at first if she thought it was like a crazed fan or something -ha! I do think Kid Rock is a cool guy but wish he would have like dropped the hat for the show.

She totally didn't know what to say! I LOVE this!! :angel:

:lol: love this! she looks so funny trying hard not to make "yuck!" faces when he's slobbering all over her... although don't really know how she expected any different outcome when she dedicated the song to him? he is Kid Rock after all, he actually does always do what he wants to! he's not gonna sit quietly backstage. actually pretty cool to see somebody showing up sometimes at the mac stage in their tightly controlled show environment and breaking it up a bit. :nod:

Fleetwood Mac celebrates hits with help from Kid Rock

Adam Graham, The Detroit News 6:33 a.m. EDT October 23, 2014

Fleetwood Mac celebrated its long history with a two-and-a-half hour concert at the Palace Wednesday that saw a cameo from hometown rocker Kid Rock.

Yesterday's gone, as the song goes, but it was a celebration of yesterdays gone at the Palace of Auburn Hills on Wednesday night as Fleetwood Mac hit the stage for a 2 1/2 hour love fest honoring keyboardist Christine McVie's return to the band after a 16-year absence. It was an occasion to look back at the group's legacy with fresh eyes, even though it had only been a year since the band — sans McVie — had been here in concert.

Even Kid Rock got in on the action, hitting the stage midway through the show after Lindsey Buckingham dedicated "Big Love" to the hometown rocker and Stevie Nicks mentioned him during her intro to "Landslide." As "Landslide" was coming to a close, Rock hustled onto the stage — his American Badass trucker hat atop his head — and stood behind Nicks, wrapping his arms around her in a reverse bear hug. Rock's appearance brought the crowd to its feet and jump-started the show's revved-up second half.

Rock's walk-on aside, it was McVie's night to shine, and she brought a wave of early cheers two songs into the show when her signature vocals opened "You Make Loving Fun." "Thank you Detroit!" she exclaimed at the close of the song. (The current tour marks her first outing with the band since 1998's campaign behind "The Dance.")

"I guess you did notice there is yet another blonde on the stage," Nicks said after McVie's brief hellos. "Two blondes are better than one!" She then asked McVie, "where you been?" but the answer was beside the point. This tour is about the famously contentious band coming back together for one more go-round and fans having one more shot at seeing them back together.

The packed house proved there was plenty of interest in the billing, and the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers delivered a solid 24-song show of hits and album cuts from its long and winding history. Everyone got a chance to shine, from Mick Fleetwood's carnival ride drum solo in "World Turning" to Nicks' free-form interpretive dance during "Gold Dust Woman," but it was Buckingham's searing guitar solo during "I'm So Afraid" that was the night's highlight.

The band's stage set-up was simple, with a largely open stage backed by a stage-length video screen that projected on-the-nose images cued to the songs (gold dust and a woman during "Gold Dust Woman," for example). The band was augmented by several auxiliary musicians and a trio of backup singers, who added ghostly howls to "Sisters of the Moon."

The interplay between the band members was lively, especially with Buckingham and Nicks, who took on "Landslide" together. Buckingham joined McVie at the close of the show for a poignant reading of "Songbird," a quiet capper on the night after a free-wheeling "Silver Springs" brought the first encore to its end.

It's clear McVie's return has energized the band, sparking "a brand new, beautiful, profound, poetic chapter that will bear much fruit," as Buckingham put it at one point. Yet for all the talk about the group's future, Wednesday's show was a nostalgia play, the youngest songs in the set older than this year's Rock Hall nominees. Not that there's anything wrong with that, and there's plenty to be said for playing the hits to a receptive audience. But call it what it is.

"Don't Stop" came late in the show, and while the song's and the band's optimistic message still rings, it's an ironic anthem for a band that is focused on raising a glass to yesterday.

There is a short Warners video at the end of this article that I don't remember seeing before (maybe it's in another thread and I missed it). It's very sweet - Christine talking about how amazing it was to get back into Village studios with the guys, and Lindsey smiling and nodding along with her :D

Darn, it's gone.

It's still there. Click on the link in michelle's original post. For some reason that link works, but my copied link doesn't :shrug:

I hope you can see it.

Wow, that was incredible, Thanks!

I'm glad you found it. It's a very lovely clip. I've replayed it quite a few times just to see the adorable looks on their faces :laugh: - they are so enthusiastic about their musical chemistry, which is hopefully a very good sign for this new album. They seemed more relaxed towards the end of this clip, than in the other videos I've seen :)

From now on I think that everyone Stevie dedicates Landslide to should be able to come out on stage and give a hug.

The look on her face was priceless.

:thumbsup:

wait what?? LB almost never makes dedications, except sometimes to his close family members. is this really correct?

agree. :thumbsup:

He used to make NGBA dedications, which I found amusing, sometimes.

Michele

Not as amusing as dedicating, of all songs, What's The World Coming To? and Say Goodbye to Kristen, lol. Or Bleed To Love Her to Don Henley + Family. :D

hey - no problem, you do great job documenting stuff Nicole, and i'm sure peeps are grateful for that.

thanks for sharing. :thumbsup:

wait, no hugs for Chris, Mick, and John?

Fleetwood Mac Joined By Kid Rock At Detroit Stop
Posted on 10/23/2014 10:21:00 AM by Gary Graff

Fleetwood Mac had an unexpected visitor on stage during its show Wednesday night (October 22) at the Palace of Auburn Hills in Detroit.

As Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham played their usual duo version of "Landslide," Kid Rock, who lives not far from the venue, snuck up behind Nicks, hugging her from behind and giving her a kiss on the cheek, holding her in a kind of slow dance until the song ended. She turned around and returned the hug and kiss, and on the way off stage Rock hugged Buckingham.


The Mac tour continues Saturday (October 25) in Boston with North American dates booked through March and a European tour expected next year. The group has also been working on new music, with no release date yet determined.

NGBA to Barbara Nicks.

Michele

Haha, I love how Stevie looks so bewildered when he walks out. "OMG Kid, couldn't you have told me you were gonna do this beforehand so we could rehearse?" :D

Indeed! Just as well Stevie's not publicly gone to his shows or she might've been on the receiving end of one for Come or something like that. ;)

I'm still partial to the fact that Stevie once dedicated Landslide to his high school science teacher, in all honesty. And that when it's a family dedication, Lindsey gets included.

"Usually when we play this in different cities, we find someone to give this song to but in this city we have a lot of people that we love. We love all of you but… We have Jeff Buckingham, Lindsey’s brother; and we have my dad, Jess Nicks, and we have my mom, Barbara; we have my aunt Carmel; and we want to dedicate this song to you."

Bucky smiles
but he be like BACK AWAY :lol::lol::lol:

It's STILL amusing me. With thanks to CADreaming for the caps...

Lindsey looks like he is thinking 'back away or I will cut you!!' - ha ha!

more about Kid Rock showing up….. and how Stevie calls him the rock and roll love child she never had… I would have thought she met him through Sheryl since he and Sheryl were together for a while. (the article online also has a link to video of him onstage and a link to a collection of about 50 photos from the show)





Stevie Nicks explains Kid Rock song dedication during Fleetwood Mac concert

By Gary Graff, The Oakland Press

Thursday, October 23, 2014


Stevie Nick’s dedication of “Landslide” to Kid Rock caught fans — and Kid Rock himself — by surprise on Wednesday night, Oct. 23, during Fleetwood Mac’s concert at the Palace of Auburn Hills.

PHOTOS FROM THE SHOW

But Nicks says it was a heartfelt gesture, and that Rock walking on stage to embrace her was “an unforgettable moment.”

“I have known Kid since 2001 — and we have had a very special friendship ever since,” Nicks said Thursday via email. “We had the special opportunity to spend four days at the Montreaux Jazz Festival in 2006 with (the late Atlantic Records co-founder) Ahmet Ertegun, me, Kid, Robert Plant, Stevie Winwood, Nile Rodgers, Chaka Khan and more — each of us hand-picked by Ahmet.

“It was adult summer camp in Switzerland. We relate on many levels. Behind (Rock’s) crazy flamboyance lies the most amazing person. We have always joked that if I had had a child it would have been him. From that comes the dedication on stage during the Detroit show.”

REVIEW OF THE PALACE SHOW

After Nicks announced the song dedication, Rock strolled on stage, embraced her from behind and kissed her on the cheek. The two remained in a kind of slow dance until the song finished, when Nicks turned around to return the hug and kiss. Rock also embraced Fleetwood Mac guitarist Lindsey Buckingham on the way off stage.

Rock said Thursday that he knows Nicks “pretty well through the last 10 years. Stevie has always declared me ‘the rock n roll love child’ she never had.” Going on stage, he added, was a “spontaneous” decision. “I told Stevie when I surprised her that her security was not very good — joking, of course,” he said. “They sounded great, I thought.”

Stevie uses e-mail?! :shocked:

LOL.

clearly a prepared response from her PR team i.e., Liz Rosenberg.

How cool is it to have an Aunt Carmel? :D

"You f#ck with my people ..." :lol::lol::lol:


you KNow she so does.
karen types whilst she dictates.
her addy is prolly something like [email protected] :D :lol:

didn't Carmel pass away? I seem to recall her talking about it previously on the Today show, behind the scenes Q&A:shrug:

I can vaguely remember that, but I'm not sure. I'd like to know what Aunt Carmel was/is like. Hey Stevie, any fond remembrances of Aunt Carmel you'd like to share? The elders are treasure troves of stories that are sometimes never uncovered, unless you ask.

I'm also remembering there's a dedication to her on an album….. IYD maybe? Her dad and Carmel…?

Can someone else remember? Bueller???

Fleetwood Mac live show at The Palace of Auburn Hills Detroit

The Examiner

http://www.examiner.com/review/photo...-hills-detroit

Fleetwood Mac performed all their greatest hits during a two and a half hour set, with no opening band. It was a night filled with magical songs and mystical lighting. Fans were delighted to see the return of Christine McVie, the original keyboardist from 1970. She has had a 16 year absence from the band, but has returned, and now the band is complete for the On With the Show 2014-2015 Tour.

There were many highlights of the show, one being when Stevie Nicks sang "Gold Dust Woman", emerging on stage with a gorgeous gold beaded shawl. She sounded amazing! The background video screen was filled with images of gold glitter falling down and really set an magical mood to the stage.

Stevie Nicks dedicated "Landslide" to Detroit's own Kid Rock, saying, "He's like the lil' son I never had." After the song, Kid Rock ran out on stage, hugged and kissed Stevie Nicks on the cheek. This brought the crowd to their feet once more and everyone remained standing the rest of the show.

Another highlight was Lindsey Buckinghams guitar solo. This guy plays with such passion and emotion, he is truly talented beyond words. And let's not forget to mention Drummer Mick Fleetwood. He is a powerhouse on the drums, and ran out across the stage in his signature Lederhosen pants. Mick Fleetwoods style has always been over the top and comparable to the beautiful Stevie Nicks and her goddess inspired fashions. Everyone looked and sounded fantastic! It was a great night filled with hit after hit song, goosebumps, and happy tears.
