Cut!

That's a wrap!

So the 24 Karat Gold Tour has wrapped for 2016. Who went along? Did you enjoy it? What were your favourite songs and stories?

I went to the Sacramento show, travelling there from Australia and had a blast, it was funny the woman next to me, about 20 year older kept dancing into me and touching my hair. I later saw her poking her head out the window of a car while I was walking down the street, yelling incomprehensible words at me, something about wanting to **** me.

My favourite song was Wild Heart. I also adored Belle Fleur and Stop Dragging my Heart Around. I was surprised only 3 songs from 24KG and only 2 from IYD.

As I travelled all that way, I also had a one week holiday in San Francisco and met a beautiful girl who is also a Stevie Nicks fan, hopefully we will meet in March when I go back to the Golden Gate.

Who has tickets for next year? I'm seeing Bruce Springsteen in my hometown of Sydney in February, I have two tickets and have yet to find a friend who wants to see him.

Happy New Year to all Ledgies!

Cheers.

I'm just curious about any possible set list changes for 2017!

I hope she keeps Moonlight, Wild Heart and Bella Donna! It'll be my first Stevie Nicks concert ever (excluding Fleetwood Mac) at Newark.

Flying in from the Netherlands.

Happy New Year. I was supposed to travel to Columbia, SC, but I had a tragedy in my life, so I didn't go. I will attend the C-Ville show at John Paul Jones Arena in March, and I, too, am interested in any set changes. I've loved keeping up with the shows from wonderful Ledgies who've posted reviews, videos, and photos here. Thank you all very much.

I saw her at Madison Square Garden and she was phenomenal!!

I brought my friend, who didn't even know who she was, and now she's obsessed with Moonlight and Edge of Seventeen.

Moonlight, of course, knocked it out of the park, but the whole show was amazing. I especially loved Stevie's anecdotes and chattiness ("I have to consult my fitbit") and Wild Heart/Bella Donna were among the highlights to me.

I hope in the next leg of the tour she switches up the songs a little. Would love Lady, Rooms on Fire, and maybe some surprises.

I'm glad Stevie dropped Dreams, Landslide, etc. on this tour. I think it shows courage and growth. I hope she sheds more of her standbys so that more of her other songs can shine.

That said, the wild finale of Gold Dust Woman, Edge of Seventeen, Rhiannon and Landslide (which had all of MSG on their feet and passionately singing along with her) at the show I saw was positively inspiring. Hard to imagine a better finale to a setlist of mostly "deep cuts" than all the familiar/beloved hits! Definitely crowd pleasing.

This is so perfectly stated! Best quote to begin 2017. Thank you lilyfee

I went to the Nashville show and it was phenomenal!!! It was all the more special considering it was my first time seeing Stevie! I was so emotional when she first walked on stage that i started crying haha. My favorite songs were Wild Heart/Bella Donna (was so emotional again during these 2), Belle Fleur which i think translated very well on stage, and Crying in the Night was a wonderful surprise! I have to say i screamed and danced quite a bit through Stand Back haha. I love how intimate this tour was in the sense that Stevie really took the time to connect fans with the songs through stories. Probably the best night of my life and I'm hoping to go see her again in Memphis fingers crossed!!!

Hahaha this sounds very familiar (start to cry when your favorite artist first walks on stage). How were your seats? Mine are Row 22 so I don't know if I'm gonna be close enough to get that kinda reaction.

But I cried at my first Ayu (no one here will know her lol) concert when I was 8th-row-ish.

Well mine weren't even floor seats (the were just lower bowl) and I still had that reaction haha. I was just so excited to see Stevie!

I flew to Texas from Europe to see Stevie in Houston and Dallas. They were amazing nights! Glad I went to two of the early shows as I got to hear "Annabel Lee"! And "Outside The Rain" is one of my favourite songs ever, so I'm very happy that was still in the setlist.

I seriously considered going again for the second leg, but then the Tom Petty Hyde Park gig was announced, so I have decided to go there instead :-)

Wow you are definitely a dedicated fan to cross oceans for Stevie!
