I've never heard a rumor about Curry Grant & Stevie. I believe there was something about Stevie & Dennis Wilson on a Dennis Wilson website.

I'm about 100% certain I read that in a magazine article somewhere, that Curry had divulged to Rolling Stone that he'd been intimate w/ Stevie...although I can't off the top of my head recall what article that info came from, nor have i ever been able to find anything in rolling stone regarding his admission....? so who knows, maybe it wasn't true. In those days, it wouldn't have been the oddest thing in the world to occur. Although I wouldn't expect any of the mac members to really comment on it anyway.

I think I read somewhere that Curry had told Rolling Stone that he had been intimate with Stevie.

Hmm...when was this? I would assume it was after his affair with Chris was over?

I bloody hope so! Maybe it was when she dumped him for Dennis Wilson.

I read somewhere in some article that Mr Grant told all to Rolling Stone and also admitted he'd been intimate with Stevie as well.

I can't remember where I'd read this - I wish I could.

Wow! I'd never heard of this before. I can't imagine that anybody in the band would have been very happy with him for doing this.

not necessarily! crazy days. Chris and Curry were together for a few years but I don't think it was any great serious love affair, it was maybe sort of a long term fling...? She did tell Rolling stone she had no plans to marry him, and that she didn't think she was in love....I doubt she would have been too surprised to hear that he was still playing the field a bit. And look at what she went thru w/ dennis and his womanizing. she seemed to turn a blind eye to that stuff in those days.

Well, being that Curry was lighting director, the affair probably had a lot to do with "proximity". That whole "keep it in the family" thing.

Yes, I think it was printed a long time ago, Curry's mouth rather than Stevie's.

Once, back on the '86 tour, Stevie was standing in the dark at the mic waiting to say something & waiting for the guy with the spotlight to wake up, & she just said, "Nice lights, Curry."

I posted this to Usenet in 2001:

also, don't forget Stevie's dedication of Landslide on Aug. 31, 1980:
To Curry, "the man who gives us light"

Also, CL's Stevie Nicks FAQ in 1998 listed Curry as a Stevie lover
