Lies. All lies.

And as per usual, she talked too long in between songs and told the audience there is a God because her house was saved from the fires. It was soooooo cringe.

What's worse is that she said her "1938 built home" was all wood and if it had caught on fire, it would have spread to the houses on both sides of hers. Because her house didn't catch on fire, the others didn't and so she said "her house saved the neighborhood."

Jesus F***ing Chr*st! I just can't anymore with her narcissism.

I clicked on this to watch a snippet of the show and was bemused by the closed captioning:

It's usual to hear people mentioning God or "it's a miracle" when something really good happens to them, survive, are safe, etc. For example many refer to the plane accident of the Alive (Society of Snow) movie, as the "Miracle in the Andes". But though it could be a miracle for 16 people, it wasn't for 29, so out of respect for their families, I always prefer to avoid defining those events as a miracle.

I've had very little good to say about Stevie since 2018, but tbh, she sounds a lot better and seems to have a lot more energy for this crowd than she's had for the past several years for those of us who have supported her for decades and kept her in the lap of luxury.

It's getting so tiresome to see these older people in our country who never seem to learn from their mistakes. She made horrible privileged comments after the Maui fires and now sounds tone deaf again in her comments about these fires. Smh.

I was horrified when I read the comments here Stevie made, but then I read this in the LA Times: “Gonna go a little rogue here,” Stevie Nicks says as she recounts the night that the fires raced towards her Palisades home, a 1938 wood house that miraculously survived thanks to firefighters from Santa Rosa. “I cannot believe the bravery of these men,” she says. From the stage she gives them a special dedication of Landslide, which has got to be an all-timer of a thank you. Stevie sometimes hits the autopilot in concert these days- hey, she’s been at it awhile- but this Landslide is stunning: a full-bodied immersion into the certainty that life is gonna throw you for a loop now and then.

Several acts mentioned personal vignettes about how they were affected by the fires.

I liked Landslide a lot. She sang it very well. Stand Back, not that much, same as EoS. And I read some critics about her voice performance in SB. But I loved Landslide.

So there wasn't any now song, was there? How reliable is that concertleaks twitter account? It said Stevie Nicks will reportedly be playing an unreleased song at the FireAid Benefit Concert tomorrow night!. Is there any article, video where she actually said that?

It was Lady Gaga who had the new song. Someone goofed. I live on the East Coast and stayed up to see Stevie. She came on after one. I don't know why I expected anything different. Same band, same clothes, same hair. But the bangs were good and she wore the boots. Stand Back was a bit rough and the backing vocals at first were off. You could only hear the bassist singing, but it got corrected. I cringed when she said she was going Rouge. I think when you talk about your mansion getting saved while so many lost their homes is not the best approach but I think she saved herself when she got back to the script. Those firefighters are so brave. Landslide was perfect and I hate a shortened EOS but she crushed the ending. I knew she would bring out the Tambo. I actually got chills and I've heard this song thousands of times. It was so funny when the staged moved and she said I'm moving and I don't know why. She is such a Grandma. And I know, cause I'm a Grandma

I didn't see the whole event, but besides Landslide, it was nice to see Rod. And specially Fogerty singing Have You Ever Seen the Rain?. I love that song.

OMG are you serious? Its almost like a parody someone wrote and we had to guess is it a parody or is it really Stevie. Her Hawaii fire post was so self centered and arrogant. I suppose at her age and for living in a bubble for so long we should expect it.
If she said this babbling from the stage high on coke in 1983 it would be funny. But with the length of time she's been in this bubble its all about her.
We can all praise God because Stevie's wooden house saved California!!!!!!!

She did sorta salvage it by the end by remembering to add in a comment about the brave firefighters, but it was almost like an afterthought. She referred to her house as "she" and how "she" saved the neighborhood. Just focus on the firefighters FFS.

She has a home in Hawaii. A mobile home and her Penthouse. I thought she lived in the condo penthouse anyway.

Watch her remarks in the video online, bwboy. They sound different than the article excerpt you shared. Not everything she said that night before Landslide is in that excerpt. She should have just read the teleprompter but she, being the original DJT of classic rock entertainment, went off script and displayed her usual poor syntax in spontaneous public speaking. Her house saved the neighborhood.

I think the condo is where she spends most of her time.
