[A tribute band thinks Stevie might make a guest appearance on March 10. I doubt it]

Last month we held a competition to give away a free pair of tickets to see the critically-acclaimed tribute act Rumours of Fleetwood Mac who will be performing to Salford's Lowry Theatre on Monday 10 March.

We asked you the simple question

Which BBC sports series uses the Fleetwood Mac song, 'The Chain', as its theme tune?

The answer was of course:

Formula 1 Grand Prix programmes.

Once again we were literallly snowed under with entries, sadly there can only be one winner and the first name out of our fabled lucky hat was, Sean Kilgarriff from Irlam.

"This is amazing! I am so pleased that I have won this competition, said Sean.

"I bought the album when it came out in 1977 and still have it complete with its original inserts.

"I have heard a rumour that Stevie Nicks herself will be making a guest appearance, so I am going to find my clothes from 19777 and see if I can still fit in them.

It was reported by the LA Times back in early 1996, that Stevie was working on a Lifetime special and a boxed-set retrospective. Nothing came from the first half of that info, but of course we eventually got 'Enchanted' in 1998.

Oddly, the photo that Daniel DiCriscio posted looks to be from that era (1996). Which makes me wonder if his tweet is in regards to the photo itself, or if he's referring to something that's happening currently. Does Lifetime even do these kinds of "specials" anymore?

This has nothing to do with Michelle's post but is anyone having trouble with the "Nicks-McNuggets" thread???
All the others are working fine but this one...It won't show past 966 and the whole bottom area for posting is missing so I had to hijack this post in order to find out what is going on...

Yes, that happened to us too. I'm not sure what occurred, but the software kind of went wacky due to the embedding code for some reason. It hasn't had that reaction to either twitter or youtube embeds before.

Pop music fans know Katy Perry can sing. But did you know she can write? Perry has co-written many of her own songs including “California Gurls” and “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F).” She’s also written for Kelly Clarkson, co-authoring Clarkson’s 2009 song “I Do Not Hook Up.” In fact, many famous faces have written pop songs for other acts. Bruno Mars is one of the composers of Cee Lo Green’s feisty “Forget You.” The Whitney Houston hit “I Will Always Love You” was written and originally recorded by Dolly Parton. David Letterman’s sidekick Paul Shaffer co-wrote the Weather Girls’ disco classic “It’s Raining Men.” And Prince penned the 1980s song “Manic Monday” by the Bangles under the pseudonym “Christopher.” But that’s not Prince’s only surprising credit. Stevie Nicks based her 1983 smash “Stand Back” on the melody of his “Little Red Corvette” – so much so that he receives royalties and even played the trademark synthesizer parts – uncredited, of course. Other songs, though, are written by people who remain behind the scenes. Diane Warren has written a string of hits over the last 25 years, including “How Do I Live” by LeAnn Rimes, and “Un-Break My Heart” by Toni Braxton. She’s won a Grammy, a Golden Glob,e and received multiple Oscar nominations for her work. Back in the 1960s, the songwriting team of Lamont Dozier and brothers Brian and Eddie Holland wrote many iconic Motown songs, including The Supremes’ “Stop in the Name of Love” and Marvin Gaye’s “Can I Get a Witness.” And a then-unknown Carole King was part of the Brill Building stable of writers, who were behind dozens of radio favorites like the Shirelles’ “Will You Love Me Tomorrow?”. More recently, Katy Perry’s hits "California Gurls" and "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F)" each had several co-writers, including Perry’s friend Bonnie McKee. Because even someone as multi-talented as Katy Perry is allowed to get some help.
