My prediction is on a set list heavy with material from 24 Karat Gold, with all the required 'hits' thrown in. I'd be willing to bet heavy on Belle Fleur, Twisted, Watch Chain, I Don't Care, and even 24 Karat Gold being in the set if they can find a way to carry that mellow chugging sound on to the stage.

Agreed on all fronts. I also could see her switching in She Loves Him Still as her ballad closer.

Guitar.com: I figured it was something along those lines. And are you working with Stevie Nicks these days?

W: Well I will be. At this point Stevie is on the road with Fleetwood.

Guitar.com: Yeah, I mean when she's done with that.

W: Oh yeah. We have every intention of getting back on the road and promoting the record we made, that no one has heard yet.

Guitar.com: And you'll be serving as musical director?

W: Sure, yeah. Definitely. I just spoke to her the day before yesterday, and she's looking forward to it very much, as I am. We made a great record and no one has heard it yet.

Guitar.com: Right, you've got to get out there.

W: Yeah. Well just timing-wise, it didn't work out, because Christine coming back into the band (Fleetwood Mac) precluded everything, because as soon as the promoters heard about it, every show was sold out.

Guitar.com: Of course.

W: And now they're out there killin', so it's great. But we'll be back early next year, probably.

Well there you have it. I'm honestly surprised by this...especially with all the moaning and groaning she's been doing lately about being tired. I think she's less tired and more pissed off. Well I'm excited by this. Let's hope she does a good amount of songs from 24K!!

Here I was all excited about this and you had to throw in the hideous prospect of Twisted and Watch Devil destroying the set. Sigh.

Stevie has a hard time letting go. This album won't sell, get over it. Die hard Stevie fans like those who post here bought it, but for the casual Stevie Nicks fans these are considered "B-Sides" or "Leftovers".

Flashback to Beacon Theater a few years ago. Stevie does 6 (SIX!) songs from "In Your Dreams". My sister in law kept asking me where these songs were coming from. I was pretty embarrassed to say she was still trying to promote her most recent studio album.

Who the f*ck does that? 3 or 4 songs from a new album is all you should throw out there.
6? That's pathetic.

Going back to "Vault", while I enjoyed the album, this isn't going to be a big seller. Ever.
I'm still excited for a volume 2 as I'm a Nicks fan (stan).

I pray to God she does the Fleetwood Mac album. After this long tour, I don't see these elderly people touring for it anyway, but at least give the fans a final gift of 3 or 4 new Nicks-sung FM songs.

Someone who's (justifiably) proud of their work does that. I was at the 2012 Beacon Theatre show; casual fans were dancing in the aisles and rushing the stage. Based on my experience, I saw no signs of disappointment.

Exactly. And why live in the past?
