"With his hour set and the 30-minute changeover, we won't go on until somewhere between 9:15 and 9:30, and curfews are 11 o'clock, and you'd better be done because if you're not, they'll pull your power."

Cutting three or four songs from what has traditionally been nearly a two-hour set is about the only thing that draws a complaint from Nicks these days. Her life and career have recovered from a period in which there was reason to wonder if Nicks could continue to be a vital force on the music scene. But, as Nicks herself said, her life today is fantastic.

I'm hoping when she dumps Chris in June, she adds a few more songs back into her set. Thats the only hope I have right now.

I don't even know what she is talking about. She did 14 songs last night. She did 15 songs in Gold Dust Tour. And she ended at 10:45, so there was time for one or two more songs before they pulled the plug. She is also welcome to cut the endless pre-Edge percussion/drum solo and the 5 minute intro to Rhiannon.
