THE JACKIE FACTORY is thrilled to announce that their 20th annual edition NOTS 20 will be held on May 14, 2010 at the HIGHLINE BALLROOM in NYC. This year's moonlit, milestone edition was inspired by one of Stevie's most enduring and iconic songs, SISTERS OF THE MOON. Though Stevie has not performed this song much of late, it has remained a showpiece and staple of some of NOTS most thrilling performers past and present.

Already confirmed to perform are many Legends of Stevie Realness and audience favorites from all eras of the show. They include BELLADONNA (CALIFORNIA), SHERRY VINE and EPIPHANY, JUSTIN BOND, THE HOHOS, GYPSY WILDE, JAZMEN FLOWERS (MISSISSIPI), ADAM DUGAS, AMBER MARTEN & MIA THEODORATUS, HEATHER LITTEER, DD SPARKS (IOWA), ST. EVE, BILLY O, CHARLENE CORAN (COLORADO), THE DIVINE GRACE, VELOCITY CHYALLD, JONNY TINGLE, BROOKE HALEY (FLORIDA), DARLINDA JUST DARLINDA, PAIGE STEVENSON, BELLA LUNA, AMBER RAY and the HOUSE OF DOMINATION. Our all-Stevie, all-Fleetwood DJs are the much-loved CRAIG SPENCER, SAMMY JO and POISON EVE. Booking of both returning and new performers is still very much in process. For the latest news on our NOTS 20 bill, please check back at our website and/or subscribe to our newsletter at stevielist @ jackiefactory.com.

The Producers have begun reviewing new performers for this edition's limited debut slots - please email [email protected] for instructions on how to apply - through March 1 only.

To the 1100 Enchanted and truly Timeless fans who turned out for our largest edition to date, NOTS 19: SONGS OF RHIANNON on May 1, 2009 - our deepest thanks. This 19th annual edition was even more spectacular than the previous years, and the audience not only bigger but by far the best costumed. We love the energy and care that you bring to "The Night" every year, and your interpretations of Stevie looks past, present and future. Visit the NOTS 19 FLICKR set, where the producers posted favorite show photos.

SHOW HISTORY

NIGHT OF A THOUSAND STEVIES is the biggest and best-loved STEVIE NICKS fan event in the world, one of those great New York City spectacles that sparks travel from all around the globe. Born in 1990 at the tiny performance venue MOTHER, "The Night" has run for nineteen years, even inspiring the 2001 film GYPSY 83. Neither a contest nor a karaoke show, NOTS is the Stevie celebration ne plus ultra - a riot of shawls, lace, baby's breath, twirling, tambourines and great performance. This much-loved annual has hosted Stevie fans and celebrated guests and performers including DEBBIE HARRY, BOY GEORGE, COURTNEY LOVE, CYNDI LAUPER and so many more.

...I totally wanna go.

Good luck at this year's show, Jazmen. What are you singing?

Me too! Wanna swing by NC and pick me up? :p

Sounds like a plan :) I think we should all have epic Ledgie bonding over that weekend.

This has been one of my lifetime goals. I have FAMILY in NY and I still haven't gone. Hell, I grew up in NY and never went. Basically, it would cost me airfare (or gas). I am going to speak with my best friend from HS and see if she is up for a road trip. I say this every year but I think I am going to do this.

Jason, am I too old? Am I too "straight"? Tell us more about the crowd.

thank you. I can't tell you what I'm performing. Chi Chi and I talked about a week ago and decided together on what I'd do. I can tell you that it is going to be an honor and a special performance. I'll give you a hint as the day draws near.

NO and NO. the crowd is so mixed it's silly. people from every segment of Stevie fandom are represented and there's no real majority. you will have no trouble "fitting in" and I know you will have an awesome time. I really hope you can come.

ditto on what jazzy said. you will have a great time.

I'd LOVE to go to this in 2010 but I'm not gonnabe able to. I totally plan pn going in 2011 for the 21st NOTS though. I actually starteda thread here a good while ago to see if anyone would be provisionally interested and we could have a big Ledgie get together! Dani's got the right idea, just would be next year for me!

Seriously. later this year I think we could start planning this. It would give everyone time to get cash together etc...

For those going this year - have a GREAT time!!

I am going to do my best to be there. 20th anniversary and rumoured to be the last one, I've heard. I need to be there. :thumbsup:

Oh, is it really? In that case, I've got to go. See you there :)

I really wanna go!!! I gotta see what my schedule is like around that time.

I will definitely be there. Hmmm... sisters of the moon is the theme. This year I swore not to try to dress theme-appropriate. But something tells me I'll have to think of something simple.

Last year's show was spectacular.

Hell yes. :angel:

NOOOOO!! Say it ain't so! I can't afford to go this year because I'm finishing my phD between now and June and so am not working full time at the moment. I had it all planned to work full time from June onwards and then go next year...
