I only have a handful of tweets on my twitter account since the guy on Fox and Friends years ago claim that he signed her up to Twitter on the show.

Your not following "@RealStevieNicks" are you??? Because that's the twitter that caused all the trouble by claiming they were Stevie and was the reason for the "I do not tweet" letter from Stevie... @StevieNicks is the real one

From what I remember Clayton Morris created the twitter and gave someone in "Camp Nicks" the account info...Some one got hold of the password and started tweeting as Stevie...The twitter is still there if you want to read the tweets...

[From a piece on Henri David]


Q Who are some of your most famous jewelry clients?

Stevie Nicks, Elton John, Dick Clark, Duran Duran, Sheryl Crow. It's all word of mouth. We had the Rolling Stones here one day, completely unannounced. They came in during the day with their limousine parked outside, shopped around and pointed to what they liked, and their guy handed me money. It was cool.

[From an interview with Elles Bailey, by Laura Williams Bristol 124-7]

http://www.bristol247.com/2014/04/22...-bailey-91011/


Who are your musical heroes?

Hands down my vocal hero is Etta James, her voice and the passion that she infused in her music is just breath taking. Dusty Springfield, Janice Joplin and Stevie Nicks have all played a huge role in my musical upbringing , as have all the Rock and Roll greats. My dad brought me up watching his band play songs by Chuck Berry and Jerry Lee Lewis, I think I was their backing singer by the age of 7!

[From an article about Al Sorenson, a teacher who paints]

South Town Star BY GINGER BRASHINGER Correspondent April 23, 2014

http://southtownstar.suntimes.com/li...h-success.html

His first important sale was a drawing of Keith Magnuson of the Chicago Blackhawks for someone who wanted to give it to Magnuson as a gift, Sorenson said. Not long after, another patron commissioned a drawing of Stevie Nicks, of the musical group Fleetwood Mac.

Elle, by Lizzy Goodman, Culture Club, April 24, 2014

The Answer to Pop's Prim-Princess Problem? Lykke Li

Searching for a little more soul and a little less predictability in a world of hypermanaged pop stars? Swedish indie-soul singer Lykke Li is here to answer your prayers.

In September 1981, Stevie Nicks appeared on the cover of Rolling Stone. She’d just released her legendary first solo album, Bella Donna, and was busy working on Fleetwood Mac’s Mirage on the outskirts of Paris in a decaying 30-room château that David Bowie, who’d also recorded there, believed to be haunted. In the interview, Nicks talked about her affection for the Hindu goddess Devi, her desire to build her own pyramid, and her certainty that she’d been a monk in a past life. The story reads like a portal into a lost world, one in which decadence and eccentricity were prerequisites to rock stardom. On the cover, shot by Annie Leibovitz, Nicks’ delicate finger serves as a perch for a giant white bird (in homage to the Bella Donna album art). It’s a paean to the kind of rock ’n’ roll woman you just don’t see anymore—the enchantress, the mystic, the gothic siren.

Blame it on the fact that today’s twentysomethings were raised in the heyday of irony. Blame it on the collapse of a music industry no longer able to rent French estates in the name of sonic soul-searching. Blame it on a modern definition of New Age as meditation and green juice rather than séances and cocaine. Today’s rock stars, so crushingly aware of the bottom line, are more managed, less debauched, and generally saner than they’ve ever been. Where are the Grace Slicks, the Kate Bushes, the Tori Amoses; who among today’s stars has Nicks’ “timeless face of a rock and roll woman/ while her heart breaks”?


In 2008, an answer emerged in the form of a beguiling Swede named Lykke Li (pronounced “Licky Lee”). The cover of her debut, the Little Bit EP—with the singer gazing into the distance, wearing a headdress of white orchids—conjured a sense of intimate mystery that the music only amplified. Li sang in a girl’s voice about having a woman’s broken heart. The detached youthfulness of her tone against her warm electro-soul sound, plus the abject loneliness in her lyrics, made for an irresistible modern take on girl-group melancholy. Critics embraced her as a founder of a new “indie soul” movement—one that has since become a defining subgenre of the day, from the orchestral nihilism of Lana Del Rey to the dazed funkiness of Solange Knowles. With her long, dirty-blond layers, crisp tailored slacks, and enveloping coats—always in black, always with kohl-rimmed eyes—Li may not have been a direct Nicks descendant, but she certainly embodied Scandinavian alterna-cool.

[I love Scully more than I love most people, but I don't think I want a candle. This is from an article on Etsy artist Amanda Stilwell]

Huffington Post, April 25, 2014 by Joseph Erbentraut

Some six months ago, she began selling altar candles adorned by many of the same new wave icons featured in the Tarot deck, as well as other icons who inspired her -- most recently, Stevie Nicks, Beyonce and Agent Scully from "The X-Files." They are sold for $13 apiece on her shop, a price point accessible to more customers than the $42 Tarot deck.

Almost 16 years ago, our newspaper created a new section to give readers the best in local entertainment news. We called it Weekender. Stevie Nicks was on our first cover. (She was past her prime then; who knew she'd still be performing today?)

[Review of Fat Goth record, 100%. I should find the lyrics for that SN song]

http://www.theskinny.co.uk/music/rec..._percent_suave

Album review by Chris McCall. Published 29 April 2014


Fat Goth don't have immediate crossover appeal; their music is too heavy and takes too many sharp changes in direction that can leave the casual listener struggling to keep up. Then there's the song titles, such as Caligynephobia (a fear of beautiful women, in case you were wondering) or The Stevie Nicks Method. But that's not stopped them being endorsed by celebrity chefs and playing unlikely Christmas gigs in Glasgow's George Square.
