Awww. I guess Stevie would lose her voice if she named every song of hers that got a standing ovation. It's a given going in that Rhiannon and Stand Back are going to bring the house down.

it would be for me there too. Lindsey was there.

i wouldn't know when SN gets standing ovations, i was never at any of hers or FM shows, so you all have to fill me in. but i was there for 20 of Lindsey's. he always got standing Os after practically every song. at every OMS i've seen standing Os started with Come, if not before, and proceeded to the end. even though a lot of audience didn't even know all the songs, and they especially didn't know Come.

She gets them ALL OF THE TIME. I would not try to measure the number she gets against his.

Michele

that's very nice, happy for her.

i'm just adding parts he obviously didn't feel the need to say, in case anybody's wondering.

EW: You spent most of 2011 promoting and touring behind your most recent solo album, In Your Dreams. How different is that experience from touring with Fleetwood Mac?

Stevie Nicks: My solo career is more like an intimate gathering, an intimate beautiful party at your home, and Fleetwood Mac is like a big, huge Christmas ball at a big huge ballroom somewhere. Fleetwood Mac is just way bigger and way grander. And I think that’s one of the reasons why it’s always been so good for me to be able to go back and forth. Because what I do is very, very different than what Fleetwood Mac does and vice versa. So when I come out of one and go into the other, it’s very new for me.


Is it me or does this sound like the Stevie version of "big machine, little machine"?

And the similarities of the verbiage in the recent interviews:

LB:"There's been a subtext of competition and animosity, which is the flip side of love, for a long time.

SN:we’re looking at it through the eyes of wisdom now, instead of through the eyes of jealousy and resentment and anger."

Wonder if it's any reflection of all the yakking they did at his house......

And don't forget that Stevie was talking about harmonic convergence too. She'll be discussing cycles next. Meanwhile, Lindsey is trying very hard to be her.
