NICKSFIX is DOWN?!?
 

Hi everyone :wavey:

I just tried to open up nicksfix.. and this is what i see....

http://nicksfix.com/http://nicksfix.com/

???????????? You'd think they could bother to let people know this is going to be changed!! I don't know what else to say.:distress: rockalittle.com is the same way.

Probably making some changes to the site. There really isn't any Stevie news going on right now anyway. But if they are changing the site, I am excited to see what it will look like.:nod:

Maybe they are prepairing for a big announcement?!

.......nah.

It works for me......:confused::confused:

Strange indeed! Wazzz up with that? One could hope there upgrading.......:shrug:

Yeah I'm a little worried about this; I just discovered it myself.
The fact that it's going to a "Network Solutions" page that mentions
registering the domain name is not a good sign!
Methinks somebody didn't pay the bill or something...
I dunno - - - I think maybe we're just gonna have to "stay tuned."


:blob2:

NicksFix needs a major overhaul......
The website may have been ok 10 yrs. ago, which is pretty much where it is still stuck, but it's pretty much an embarrassment for an artist of Stevie's stature!
There is no streaming of her recordings (major mistake and missed marketing opportunity). And her image should just splash on the front page with multiple images from her 4 decade carrer!!!....I mean I could go on and on....and basically there are no "real" updates, only sightings.:rolleyes:

Here's hoping (fingers crossed) that her recent collaboration and time spent w/Dave Stewart, have propelled her & mgmt. to market herself more aggressively on the big bad web. Starting with a MAJOR FACELIFT to her official website, a relatively small investment, compared to what a record company would spend normally spend on promotion. And maybe, just maybe (though this would be a big leap) she will release these newly recorded songs through her website :D

You know I've been thinking a bit more into what Dave Stewart tweeted re: " yeah we are making "album" in a very new way"

Because recordings do not move huge units like they did in the old days w/ rare exception. Recording royalties for artists are drying up, and it's no longer cost effective to have big budgets for new recordings, as Stevie was very accustomed to!!

I infer that Dave means by "new way", that Stevie is making "album" w/ a smaller budget & utilizing someone like Dave who is a multi instrumentalist & his studio equipped with all the latest modern recording technology & roaster of musicians to call upon, to record a new solo cd much more cost effective than she is use to. Gone are the days of recording in a mansion for months on end (as w. SYW & OSOTM) and booking multiple studio's with multiple producers & musicians (as w. RAL & TISL) She is reigning in and succumbing to technology because she has no choice in the current music landscape. There are very few record stores anymore, and limited shelf space in big box stores...So to release a new CD or recordings she must embrace the web!! Stevie no dummy. never has been. She is very practical and knows the reality of the music industry, even if she still hates tech.

I've been going to the Nicksfix since the mid/late '90s, and it's gone down/disappeared a number of times over the years. I'm sure everything is fine, y'all. And even if not, it's had a good run and has certainly outlived it's obsolescence.

When comparing nicksfix to Lindsey's site nicksfix looks cheap, and fan-made. This is either a very good thing for news on what could be a new album, or a very bad thing with the website being shut down. There has not been any news about this album, which could be because not many people pay attention to Stevie Nicks anymore, or Dave Stewart. Maybe they don't really feel the need to promote this album in any huge way. But nicksfix needs an improvement badly, she is a legend with the website of unsigned local band.

Well it did work. I went on it when I saw this and it did look a tad different and now I just went on again and now it isn't working.

Here's hoping they're doing a Blondie. New site to promote a new album. Fingers crossed.

its still up ...
stevienicks.net

even stevienicks.net is down for me.

stevienicks.net does appear to work, so I guess all is well, and nothing ever changes...
