Yeah, 12 yrs is along time, she's had to have a man at some point. What can we do to get her business out on the street? haha. Has everyone ever heard of anyone she's dated recently? Like...since The Dance?

She referred to dating, I think, two people since then. No specifics though. Maybe someone can find the quote.

[brysondt]

Yeah, anyone have the articles/interviews where she has referred to dating 2 people since The Dance? Sometimes I think I've read everything and then you guys throw out something like that and I realize I have a lot of research to do. Haha.

Anyone know?

They were two former Ledgies, if I recall . . . .

[brysondt]

So true. It's going to be entirely about her grandfather, Lindsey, then the early days of Fritz/Buckingham Nicks/Mac--- fast forward to Bella Donna-- fast forward to quitting coke-- fast foward to quitting Klonopin-- The Dance, done.

Oh, and she'll talk a lot about her writing, which is the thing that I am super interested in but most people won't want to hear all about her as a writer if they aren't hearing any of the juicy details of her life.

Does she have a man in her life now? “No, I don’t. I had a relationship three years ago with someone I’d gone out with a long time ago. It didn’t work out then and it didn’t work out now. It just proved my theory that you can never go back. Before that, in 1997, around the time of The Dance, I went out with somebody for a little over a year who was quite enamoured with me. I decided he was way too young for me, though. I was nearly 50 and he was nearly 30. We had a riot but I said that eventually he would make me feel extremely old, so I ended it. But I’m never not open to the possibility of romance.”

She says that her last relationship ended, or rather never really took off, because she made a huge amount of money in a publishing deal, and she was thrilled and excited but she couldn’t share it. “I was tickled, thrilled, and I made the mistake of telling somebody who was struggling in this business. As the words came out of my mouth, I could see that he didn’t think it was funny. So I knew our relationship was never going to work because I can’t be a person who is not going to share that moment.”

La Nicks has still got it

Ok, I read the story, and it is very close to being porn. Got a few good laughs from it.

It pretty much IS porn.

[njova]

I just read it and even though its fiction I can totally imagine that happening.

How about Stevie having sex with the speaker?
Back on stage as Lindsey takes up the song, Stevie slipps off stage as she usualy does. But as she passes one of the big speakers Lindsey's voice thunders out and carreses her. Startled she stops, looks around and slowly approaches the speaker feeling his voice throb deeply into her. She presses her self against it and feels her pluse quicken. She gasps and throws her head back and climaxes as he finishes the song with a shout. Quickly composing herself she slipps back on stage for her set. Meanwhile, the sound engeneers are totaly perplexed as to why PA Sub woffer stage left went all wonky.

Hey, super old-timer here. It seems I can log onto here once every few years and still catch a convo I can relate to... haha!! Once a SN/FM fan, always a fan.

Truly, I decided to check the ol' Ledge out because I saw the Kathy Griffin show the otehr day where she and Bette called Stevie, and I just about rolled over laughing at this thread!

Well, I was around and posting heavily during the days when this story was written, and there was a whole ring of us who passed around some pretty high quality fan fic, if I do say so myself, and I have to come out and defend this amp story and clear up its origins for you.

Back on what we used to call the "Old Ledge" (one single forum running board) around 1998 or so there was this guy who posted and told us that he was a roadie for the Mirage Tour. He posted because we were discussing pretty much what you are discussing now...which was whether or not Stevie and Lindsey ever got it on after their offical break up. He said that yes, they did because he and some other crew and the Tour manager were clearing the stage after a show and they saw Stevie's legs around Lindsey's back sticking out from behind a curtian (the show was in some kind of auditorium that had curtains). The Tour manger told them all that if they wanted to keep their jobs they had better get lost pronto. They guy never posted too much again after that, and then the Old Ledge crashed, and they story was gone. So.... one of our group wrote it up as a fan fic because we all thought it was a sexy story. So, to us, it was fiction based somewhat in fact. It very well could have happened. It is not total BS.

As for the logistics of it all, well, some of the old amps were big and and low and had carpet on top of them. Christine has talked about sleeping on top of these amps in the early days, so I would assume that if you could sleep on one, you could certainly get busy on one.

Hey strand! How ya been?

[daniellaaarisen]

Ha! There is some truth behind it! That makes me unbelievably happy.... and now I'm excited to read this fan fic to see another person's portrayal of it.

[sulamith]

Hee! Glad it made you happy, as I recall it gave quite a tingle, too. Ah, nothing like young Stevie and Lindsey is there? Nobody today holds a candle to their hotness. A sexier pair has never been seen again.

Another bit of info I remembered about this, the guy did say the stage was dark after the show and that S&L abviously thought they were alone, so it wasn't right out in the open or immediately after the show. He described it as some kind of recessed area on the side of the stage, as I recall. A bunch of other posters piled on the guy and accused him of lying, so he never came back...which is a shame because he could have probably told some more stories. I thought he was legit, but some others didn't.

Another observation - If you watch the Mirage video, (and who hasn't about a billion times, eh?) Lindsey's underwear line in his linen pants magically appears and reappears. That is because the video was culled from two different shows, one of which LB was clearly going commando. So, who's to say he didn't have easy access for post-show tension release? As for Stevie, she used to wear those Danskin body suits and panyhose, so I don't know how she would have pulled that off...literally.

I used to have a big cache of really good S&L fan fic, but sadly I have lost it all.
Memories.
