I'm sorry, I just cannot believe that anyone, ever, throughout time immemorial, would want Stevie to drop the Asskicker that is I Need to Know.

Do y'all only want slow songs? *yawn* - and for the peeps who say drop Stand Back and Edge? Again, d'ya only want the sleepers? the yawnies? What's the deal? You don't want to shake your booty at all? Don't want to get that pulse rate up????

It boggles my little mind...honestly....the only way I can see that would be okay, is if she replaced them with other asskicker fast songs. And I don't think Sister Honey and I Can't Wait are coming out anytime soon, unfortunately...

However, Rumours 77, I definitely agree with your other two choices - I've never liked HAEWAFY, and Landslide is gorgeous, obviously, but just too overplayed while also being slow.

HAEWAFY- I think she needs to end things on a more upbeat note.

I could do without Dreams for sure, but I don't know if anyone has noticed: the name of the ceasar's palace show is DREAMS. I am inclined to believe it will be included.

Dreams...Could live without it but frankly, she will NEVER drop it. Plus, like Poet said, the name of this event is "Stevie Nicks Dreams".

Rhiannon...Like it only with the Mac

GDW..... Only with the Mac

I Need To Know....Never liked it, fast or not..replace it with a song of HERS.

HAEWAFY...Sorry, never been a fan.

I agree with those who only want her to perform Landslide with Lindsey. He is the only guitarist who can do the song justice. Same for Silver Springs...if she does that solo it won't fly with me.

I could do without:

Enchanted - I've never gotten into this one and somehow, since '98, it has taken up a permanent spot in the setlist. Why this one?

I Need To Know - If she wants to do a Petty song, pick something else for God's sake! (How about "You Wreck Me"?)

Landslide - I'm sick of this one. And nobody does it like Lindsey anyway. I really don't think the TISL setlist suffered without it, so leave it off!

Rhiannon - I don't mind hearing it, but it just feels like it's in the set because it has to be in the set. Let it go.

Edge of 17 - Not the whole song, but I can live without the 28 minute drum solo and the 16 minute guitar solo that precede the song. This one gets longer with ever tour...I think it is as long as World Turning on some of my boots. Get on with it already.

Although I'm the only person in the world who still likes to hear Dreams everytime I see Stevie, I do like the idea of leaving off all FM songs. Fill those slots with something new, Stevie.

but I would like to see Stevie play only her solo material and not a single Mac song...

Can ya say "'If's' and 'Buts' were candies and nuts we'd have a helluva a party"

I have to say that I do like her Fleetwood Mac songs better then her solo songs. I think that is why I am not that excited about this tour.

I figure that Vegas will hopefully be Henley free and I don't have to sit though him.

though I like the Mac Stevie songs moreso than her solo tracks, I would just want to see some variety in her setlist...Thus my opinion on removing the Mac tracks from a setlist, But then she would never do that would she?

I agree about not being excited about this tour...And I may pull the same as you and see her in Vegas to avoid the Henley (Mainly just to head 2 hours away to visit my sister Lesa) cause otherwise I'll just enjoy the bootlegs of any upcoming show

Agreed. The song alone is half her set time. She could pop in a few more songs in that time frame.

If Stand Back, Edge of 17, GDW, and I Need to Know were dropped from her set I wouldn't go. I am actually quite surprised of how many people want to see these songs dropped. I think they are the songs that are the most important in her set. I mean yes I'd love to see her try some new and rare stuff, but I don't think this would be a Sevie Nicks show without these songs.

I agree on three of the choices and have selected one of my own:

Dreams- If she did it like her OSOTM tour version id say ok, but in any other version i only look foward to the little dance part in the middle.

Enchanted- Was fun on the Enchanted tour, but she could do like Sable on Blond or Think About It, id even love fire burning.

HAEWAFY- I must say i'd also like her to end on a high energy leveled song. I liked when Stand Back was in the encores. I think that would be a nice change.

Outside the Rain- Its not that im bored with this song, its just she can't sing it anymore. Try Blue Lamp, Planets of the Universe, or Juliet on that one.

NO, not only slow songs. But put in different songs like I Can't Wait, Blue Lamp, Think About It, Violet & Blue - none of those is a ballad or a "slow" song.

I was thinking today (weel, more like deluding myself

) but wouldn't it be cool if the show's title of "Dreams" meant she would do songs with a dream reference? She has tons of them!

Dreams (duh)
Think About It (let yourself lay back within your dreams)
The Nightmare (you cannot know a dream until you know the nightmare)
After The Glitter Fades (maybe this is a dream)
OTR (maye it's only a dream)
Nightbird (the ones you dream of)
If Anyone Falls (somewhere in the twilight dreamtime)
I Sing For The Things (living on dreams and chains)
Rooms on Fire (she dreamed of her wanton luxury)
I Can't Wait (sometimes she's only dreaming)
Highwayman (is this the end of a dream)
Talk to Me (you've taken all my dreams)

I know there's so many more, but I'm tired of typing. And of course, it would leave out a lot of songs I've been saying I want to hear

. But hey - at least it would be something totally different!
