Stevie thoughts while driving to work one day...

Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't. I'm 17 and none of my friends that I go to school with really like Stevie. They get pretty sick of hearing her and hearing me talk about her. But it's apart of me, when they think of me they think of Stevie lol. I have a couple friends my age in Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. I am very lucky that I have gotten to attend some shows with them. I do wish that I had at least one friend here that loved Stevie as much as I do, but I deal with it. It sucks being a young fan sometimes because I've missed out on so much, so many tours. I was totally born in the wrong decade

I feel that way too. It really sucks when my friends make fun of my Fleetwood Mac obsession.

Amen. But at the same time I think it's a good time to be a Mac nut. It's unusual in our generation.

I hope this isn't the last tour they do [at this rate, ANY tour they do could be the last] but if it is, I want to be there.

My plan is to get off school to book tickets ... and I haven't missed a day in five years ...

I'm proud of all you guys that go alone- especially the younger fans! Kudos to you guys!
As for me, I'm 36 and my girlfriend and I both love Stevie and FM, so I always have someone to go with. Being at their concerts is my favorite place to be of all places to be (does the make sense? ) There's nothing else like it.

Don't you just love when you first walk into the venue early and you have really great seats and you're sitting there looking at the stage and her ribbons on the mic are blowing in the breeze and the feeling of anticipation of her coming out. It's the greatest experience.

YES!!! I LOVE that!!
I also love planning out how I'll get to the stage if I'm back in row 4 or something. The furthest back I ever was and got to the front was 12th row in Vegas this year. Mad dash right after How Still My Love!

Especially when you have good seats- you get that feeling of "oh my god, she's going to be RIGHT THERE!"

Well, it kinda sucks sometimes because my friends tend to find my Stevie obsession cute but annoying after some time. My ex was a big FM but not into Stevie, as such. Get this tho..I logged into the nicksfix chatroom for no good reason, met a guy who lives less than an hour from me, is my age and has the same degree as me...lots in common. He never visited there before....and yet 6 months later.....

That being said tho...being 20 years old and obsessed with 70s classic rock, 80s glam rock, metal and blues....I'm used to not having my friends being into what I'm into. Man, if I had a pound for every time someone said to me...and WHO are Whitesnake again...well, I'd be able to fly to Oz to see Stevie!!

I LOOOVE that! It's so awesome. Aw now I'm having concert withdrawels haha.

A lot of my friends know a few of the songs, but I'm the only one that knows every single song. Sometimes I get "oh, my parents love them!" Well, I'm not your parents, I'm a year younger than you! LOL. I like it though, it makes me unique. I'm the person that loves Stevie Nicks, and I like that! My mom goes with me to concerts, because she loves Stevie just as much as I do, and it's a bonding experience.

I don't sweat it, I just try to convert them and if I can't... what kind of friend were they anyway? lol.

I'm kidding.

I went to see Stevie this summer with one of my friends who wasn't too interested, but after she saw her--well, let's just say she's almost as crazy as me now. I don't think I would mind going to a Stevie or Mac concert alone 'cause then I could just be crazy and dance and sing and stuff without anyone telling the story of how I acted like a retard later.

What actually got me hooked was not the dance. It was me reading a book called "The Cube" and my "personality song" was Seven Wonders, so... I looked it up, downloaded it and have been a fanatic ever since!

Jess, I couldn't have said that any better myself!

I do have two of my friends at school that like her. Not as much as me though, and I could never really talk about much with them.

It's really sad when I can talk to my teachers more about my likings than the kids around me. It's okay though, because I've always predered adults.
