that's great are you going?

[THINKABOUTIT]

My friend and I are going? Driving in from L.A......FRONT SEATS!!!! Who else is going???!!!

[jkmaletic]

Wow-

I thought I'd wait it out to get better seats, and they haven't showed. I believe this is a newer casino, and I guess they hadn't been holding out seats like most casinos do. I'm planning to call them though, just in case they have some tickets left from comps that won't be used.

Have fun! I hope I can join you guys!

Stevie Nicks and her music coming to valley

"When I started out, some writers called me a sex symbol," said Fleetwood Mac star Stevie Nicks in 2001 USA Today interview.

"I always pointed out that I was a songwriter. If you want to stay in this business, you better write your own songs, because any career built on being cute is doomed. Nobody stays cute forever."

Hear that Britney?

When it comes to her looks, however, some might argue with Nicks on that last point.

Girlishly petite (she's just over 5-feet tall, although she wears 6-inch platforms on stage), a group of early 20-something young men were overheard recently talking about soon-to-be 60-year old.

"I don't care how old she is, she's hot," was the general consensus.

Nicks is an enigma wrapped in a mystery. On stage she's created a persona that's a mix of wood nymph and sultry songstress.

But it's definitely Nicks' music that people are coming to hear when she takes the stage at Friday night at Fantasy Springs in Indio.

Her career spans five decades, including her first band, Fritz, with high school sweetheart Lindsey Buckingham, to her years with Fleetwood Mac, and finally to a successful solo career.

Many of her songs with the Mac fall along the lines of the ethereal persona - think of hits like "Rhiannon," a song about a Welsh witch.

"Landslide," on the other hand, chronicles the disintegration of her relationship with Buckingham.

But that's just one side of Stevie Nicks.

Her solo career turns that image around. Songs like "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around," recorded with Tom Petty, and "Leather and Lace," recorded with former lover Don Henley, show Nicks to be a rocker with edge.

According to her Web site, NickFix.com, the set list for Friday's concert will probably be similar to her appearance last November at the Cow Palace in San Francisco, featuring tunes from her 2007 retrospective, "Crystal Visions: The Very Best of Stevie Nicks."

The disc is great blend of Nicks' most popular works, including "Stand Back," "Enchanted," "If Anyone Falls in Love," Crash," "Rhiannon," a dance club version of "Dreams," "Gold Dust Woman," "Sorcerer," a cover of Tom Petty's "I Need to Know," "Landslide," "Fall from Grace," "Edge of Seventeen" and Led Zepplin's "Rock and Roll."

The approximately 80-minute set is about 60 percent solo and 40 percent Fleetwood Mac hits.

But the truth is, it's all Stevie.

And after more than 30 years on the rock pile, Nicks is still a performer with a voice.

Cool article!

I called about comp seats yesterday, and the person I talked to welcomed me to come down 1/2 hour before the show in case there's any no-shows for spoken-for tickets. But she also told me those comp seats were spoken for over a month ago, and there was a LOT of interest for this show, show she didn't sound exactly positive. So, we are gonna have to skip it. I'd hate to drive the 3 hours down there only to be told "sorry-there's no tickets available."

I'm hoping Stevie will do more shows over the spring or summer, or maybe even do a couple shows with Petty! (His shows go on-sale the day after the Superbowl, FYI)

HAVE FUN YOU GUYS!!! PLEASE post a detailed review!

"Crash" is one of Stevie's most popular works?

I know, right? I liked the article....right up to that point. Oh, and the idea that L&L shows she has a "rock edge."

Yay for those who are going! And please post details when you get back!
