Chad Wiechman What is your favorite Fleetwood Mac song? Love your work!!!

Stevie Nicks: I don't really have a favorite. Each song took so much time and thought, from all 3 writers, that I don't really have 1 favorite. I have a bunch of favorites!

Watsenniiostha Shaelyn Nelson I am so excited to see Fleetwood Mac perform in Montreal!! What is your favourite thing about touring?

Stevie Nicks That's the only time that you really get to spend with your fans. The intimate moments of the set like "Landslide" is when you really get to turn your stage into a living room, and pretend like it's just us and there's nobody else!

Christina Lynn Ok consider this: marty mcfly and doc brown have given you the keys to the time travel machine - the delorean. What time in history would you go to and why?

Stevie Nicks I would go back to the 20s in Paris, so I could hang out with Coco Chanel and all the writers- Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, the ex pats from the US, and all the artists who flocked to Paris during the 1920s. TO be a part of that scene, I think it was very similar to when we moved to LA, it was a total art scene. That's why I would like to live over there for a year and re-trace the steps of those people!

I asked two questions but with how many posts there are I doubt I'll get an answer. I cringed when I saw that Stevie answered someone's question about the meaning behind Landslide

Jennifer Van Slyke-Quinn What music do you listen too? Any favorites?

Stevie Nicks Right now I am listening to Haim, whom I think are going to be a huge force in rock n' roll. I'm listening to the new Lady Antebellum album called 747, and I'm really good friends with them, so I'm very proud of this album. I try to give new music as much time as I have, but I don't have that much time!

Melissa Hughes First, let me tell you that I got 24 Karat Gold today and it is awesome! What would you say inspires you the most when you write songs?

Stevie Nicks People. People and relationships, and not necessarily my own. Relationships that I see around me, and inspiration- if I am inspired by somebody or something that somebody does. I can usually take that and make it into some kind of poem where I'm touching on the inspiration and the reality or sadness that makes me want to sit down and write a poem!

Suzanne Lewis Stumpf Has there been one particular designer for your clothes that you've stuck with throughout the years? especially in the early 80's during Bella Donna and Wild Heart? You're style just amazes me since I've been 10 yrs old!!

Stevie Nicks Yes. A lady named Margi Kent started making my clothes in 1976 right at the end of the first tour, and has been making my clothes ever since. She makes all my casual clothes and stage clothes, and we have remained friends all that time. Every time I go on the road, I get a piece from Morgane LeFay and that is Liliana, so that's been nice to add a few pieces to my already huge collection of stage clothes.

Maria Aragones Landslide is one of my favorite songs. What inspired you to write it?

Stevie Nicks I was making a decision whether or not Lindsey and I should break-up and if I should go off on my own or if I should stay in the relationship, and I decided that the music was more important, so I decided that I wasn't going to leave the relationship- I was going to stay and do the music with him.

Shauna Watson What is ur greatest lesson in life?

Stevie Nicks Listen to your own voice!! Try not to let other people make decisions for you, in general.

Deedee Mills Good Morning from Australia. Only for you would I wake up so early Lady was sooooo beautiful on Fallon the other night...and so was Rhiannon. Would you ever consider bringing out the piano and playing either of these songs by yourself on stage during a concert?

Stevie Nicks I have often thought about doing that. I actually bought a piano to take it out on stage with me and I just chickened out. I'm not quite ready to do that now. If I were to do that, I'd have to plan a show that was a more intimate show, where I actually did play piano. To do it in the middle of a Fleetwood Mac set would make me extremely nervous!

Barbara Acker Hi Stevie. ....love ypur poetry/lyrics and your voice is the best!! My question is how do you keep your skin on your face so flawless?. ..you look awesome!!

Stevie Nicks When I first joined Fleetwood Mac I realized I would really have to take very special care of my face. I think the secret is, you wash your face and use your moisturizer in the morning, and you do the same thing at night. If you're me and you have a show, you do the same thing in the afternoon too! NEVER go to bed with your makeup on. Even if you're totally drunk, crawl into the bathroom and wash your face. In addition, i stopped laying in the sun when I was 30, and then I never did it again. Staying out of the sun is major, and getting out of it- my skin fixed itself. All the damage left. Care for your skin!

Annie Zangari Do you consider the fact that "Silver Springs" wasn't included on Rumours to be one of the greatest travesties in the history of music production? Because I certainly do.

Stevie Nicks Yes, I do. And did.

Lisa Bass Burton Hi Stevie,
First I must say I have always been such a huge fan of yours. No one has a amazing voice as yours. I would love to see Fleetwood Mac in concert. But I am disabled now. So I am just not able to make it to the show. What a shame. Your music has been a major part of my life. You have seen me through some really good times. And also some really hard times. So Thank-You for sharing you gifted talent with me. My question is if you could change anything about your life. What would that be? I wish you nothing but peace and joy in your life. May you sing and write for many, many more years. A big fan from North-Carolina, Lisa Bass Burton

Stevie Nicks The afternoon I walked into a psychiatrists office, and he prescribed Klonopin for me, which over the next 8 years, nearly destroyed my life. That's my only real regret.

Julie Brooks-Harris What is on your bucket list that you definitely plan on doing?

Stevie Nicks Living in Paris for 6 months to a year at some point in my life!

Brenda Summers I have long hair too, it is so easy to tangle, do you ever want to cut yours? I have a hard time wanting to cut mine.

Stevie Nicks No, I love my hair. I will never cut it. But it IS a lot of work!

Chad Wiechman What is your favorite Fleetwood Mac song? Love your work!!!

Stevie Nicks I don't really have a favorite. Each song took so much time and thought, from all 3 writers, that I don't really have 1 favorite. I have a bunch of favorites!

Amy Lynn Krusz What is your favorite song to perform on stage?? Huge fan by the way!!

Stevie Nicks Over the last several years, I pulled out a song from Shangrila to end my set that is called "Love Is" which I had never done on stage before. That song, I thought was a reall super special song to do live. We're not doing it now because I'm in Fleetwood Mac , but something about it caused a connection where the audience, and almost me were in tears when I would sing that song!

Morgan Grove What has been your favorite show to do on the tour so far?

Stevie Nicks I think the very first show, in Minneapolis, was my favorite, because it was the FIRST show with Christine back on stage. It was very moving and very emotional

Laura Murphy Hi Stevie! I have loved you and your style for years!!! What kind of purses do you carry? I love your outfits and wondered what style of purse you'd wear along with them?! Take care and YOU (continue to!) ROCK! xo

Stevie Nicks I have a really soft leather bag that has fringe on it. I hang bracelets on it that I don't wear and hang them off my purse. I don't change a bag until it literally falls apart! I dont have expensive bags, I see one that's pretty and use it for 10 years!

Stevie Nicks I was a combination of Morgane LeFay for the dress and Margi Kent black velvet jacket on Jimmy Fallon

Ana Graciela Exiga Hey Stevie, where you friends with Ryan Murphy before starring on the set of AHS Coven?

Stevie Nicks Yes, because we did the Fleetwood Mac episode of Glee so i was down there for a couple days and got to know the cast. That's how I got involved with him. As different as AHS is, I feel that Ryan and Brad just write about misfits. Whether it's Glee or AHS, it's about misfits, and I love that!

Morgan Grove How do feel about the younger group of fans that have started to like you because of American Horror Story?

Stevie Nicks God Bless American Horror Story. What a gift. What a gift that show gave me, by taking Seven Wonders, and a lot of my other songs to a whole generation of kids that probably wouldn't have ever heard my music. I consider myself very lucky to have been involved in such a crazy, emotional show that would also reach out and show that younger generation a whole different genre of music that might be inspiring to them.
