From new material to Fleetwood Mac songs to a Led Zeppelin cover, Stevie Nicks covered a wide range of territory with just 11 songs within 75 minutes at her BMO Harris Bradley Center July 30. (See my review.)

We've got the full setlist below, and a partial playlist of the songs on Spotify from Monday's concert (the Led Zeppelin track "Rock and Roll" and Nicks' "Enchanted" aren't available).

I had to miss some of the evening's headliner, Rod Stewart, so I could make our print deadline. If you saw Stewart's full set, by all means post the full setlist in the comments section below.

Veteran rockers Stewart, Nicks each have strengths, By Piet Levy of the Journal Sentinel July 31, 2012

Seeing Rod Stewart and Stevie Nicks singing together has arguably been one of the stronger selling points of the accomplished veterans' joint 2-year-old Heart and Soul Tour, which made a stop at the BMO Harris Bradley Center on Monday.

But as has been the case on recent dates, the duets didn't happen.

Perhaps their hearts and souls weren't in it. And perhaps it was for the best, given the bad reviews their joint performances have received.

So instead of Stewart warbling his way through "Leather and Lace," Nicks brought out vocal coach Steve Real. Like most of the evening, the performance was affectionate and comforting.

"Let me catch my breath; I'm not as young as I used to be," Stewart said to the crowd early in his closing set. That's technically true, but it didn't apply to his stage performance.

The 67-year-old king of covers performed with the kind of fire found in singers one-third his age. On a cover of The O'Jays' "Love Train," he frequently kicked his spider legs and hiked up his pants, exposing his bright yellow socks. For "Havin' a Party," he flung his microphone stand in the air and shook his hips like Elvis. Close to the set's end, he even had enough energy to punt several soccer balls into the crowd - right after showcasing pictures of himself in drag - during "Hot Legs." Even more daring, Stewart let his backing vocalists upstage him on a rich rendition of "Rhythm of My Heart."

Deadlines prevented a full review of Stewart's show.

A cover of Led Zeppelin's "Rock and Roll" initially seemed appropriate for Nicks' opening 75-minute set, if not for the most flattering reason. The lyrics "It's been a long time since I rock and rolled" seemed to apply to the 64-year-old's physical performance; during the song's wildest moments, she was essentially speed walking in place.

But where Nicks' physical performance paled to Stewart's, her voice was much finer, shining brightly on ethereal Fleetwood Mac track "Gold Dust Woman," during which Nicks danced mystically with her shadow, more in her element than during fast-tempo tracks. And an acoustic version of Mac's "Landslide" was met mostly with awed silence, but also a burst of cheers when Nicks first sang, "I'm getting older, too." It was that rare, refreshing moment in a rock concert when aging, not perpetual youth, was cause for celebration.

She looks like a human butterfly.

Alicia I think you must be Stevie's secret professional photographer! So good.

In that screencap with her mother and Chris, Stevie's hair looks so full, loose waves. I wonder what event that was at.

That is so sweet of you to share your photos, thank you. I haven't seen her this tour and you have some really nice pictures! Love the sort of dark one with her hands over her head and her eyes closed. You got some excellent shots!

Love her white shirt, sort of reminds me of peasant medieval. So pretty!. And she always looks so beautiful in her black Rhiannon outfit.
