Default Stevie on Australian TV The X Factor

I just read on the F/Mac News & Reviews, that Stevie will make an appearance on Nov 15th, its such a shame that an awesome 15 yrs rock chick got voted off the show last week, she would of been a perfect candidate for Stevie to mentor on the show. Oh well!! Still its going to be fantastic watching Stevie on the X Factor

Yay! Thanks for the heads up.

Does anyone think Stevie's here in Australia already? A Facebook friend (read: a person I went to school with some years ago) last night posted that they had 'dinner with Stevie Nicks' at Wildfire Restaurant at The Rocks. I have no reason to presume they were making it up (maybe mistaken identity!), but it seemed unusual since her first show here isn't for almost two weeks. But now with this X Factor apperance next week, it seems more plausible

In any case, keep your eyes peeled Sydneysiders!

I initially thought you were using the weather as your only evidence, so pleased to hear there was a tweet too Damn I wish I was in Sydney - I'd be getting my stalk on! Nothing scary, just admiring from afar

At the Las Vegas show, Stevie said she was leaving for Australia on November 3.

Last time she was here solo, she went to the Melbourne cup with her Australian tour promoter Andrew McManus and then spent time in Sydney, so it would not be out of the question.

^If it's the same one I'm listening to, not anything totally new. She just talks a lot about the collaboration with Dave and how the reason they could write together was because they don't have any baggage.

Confidential News
X Factor pays tribute to Stevie Nicks by: Confidential reporters From: Herald Sun November 15, 2011 12:00AM
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/entertai...-1226194979262

X FACTOR Australia's final four will pay tribute to soulful singer Stevie Nicks before one contender falls at the final hurdle.

Melbourne hopeful Andrew Wishart, Reece Mastin, Johnny Ruffo and group Three Wishez will come together to perform a Fleetwood Mac song, before the last act is sent packing before next week's grand final.

Nicks will take to the stage herself to sing a new song, along with Ed Sheeran who will sing hit The A Team.

What song do you think they're gonna do?

I'll rejoice if it's anything other than Landslide. Not because I'm tired of Landslide, really... but mostly because group covers and/or reality-tv covers of Landslide really really fall short like every time I've seen them, and it pains me a little inside each time.

So please. Sing Dreams or something.

I don't reckon it'll be Landslide. Given there's six singers, I think something a bit more sing along like Don't Stop would be more suitable. That's presuming they look outside stevie songs though, which wouldn't be much of a 'tribute to stevie'. Otherwise maybe a bit of a medley? They've done a couple of those earlier in the season I think...

My Twitter stream this morning is full of Aussies saying she was awful on the XFactor. Most of them asking if she was drunk or stoned. I'm hoping it's just people being mean, but there's virtually no one saying anything good, so.....

There a crappy vid of the performance on youtube, it wasn't very good, at all.
I'm not sure if she had issues with her monitor, the sound in the studio or just her voice.
And all the hand moves were a bit much, I can see how people that are not very familair with her would think she was maybe drunk.
Maybe it was nerves?
