How is this being a jerk?

I dont think he bears any ill will toward Stevie. He's just going back to that place in time, and describing the way he felt when he wrote the song. That's showbiz.

I don't get how this is being a jerk?? As far as I can tell they are the best of friends

I agree. And how cool is it that Don Henley (who is a close friend of Stevie Nicks) to give her some free PR at his show? I think it shows an appreciation that people at his show know who she is. :thumbsup:

If anything, she's the one making it an issue when she defends herself.

And if she didn't defend herself over such silly things, it would become even more of a non-issue. And who accuses her of being a witch? I mean, c'mon.

Well, if you dress somewhat like a witch, write witch-like songs, and talk about preminitions, you do set yourself up for the witch jokes.

They dressed me up like this.
CROWD:
Augh, we didn't! We didn't...
WITCH:
And this isn't my nose. It's a false one.
BEDEVERE:
Well?

Well, we did do the nose.

I can't imagine not responding if people contined to call me a witch. At the same time, I can't imagine taking the whole thing very seriously, either.

Honestly I dont think it bothers her that much..it's not exactly like she's on the cover of US Weekly every week and everyone is debating whether she's a witch...I think it's pretty apparent in her old age, she's just a normal old rock star

I don't think what Don said is anything to get your panties in a bunch about. When people are as good of friends as Stevie and Don are, you can make snide comments and little digs...and the other person just laughs it off. From what I've seen, if anyone has a sense of humor, it's Stevie. I'm sure she would've been laughing her ass off if she were there.

I'm sure it was tongue-in-cheek...I can't imagine that Don bears any ill will toward Stevie, I mean, why would he? He's the one who screwed her over if memory serves... :laugh:
