I just emailed Perez because I didn't see anything on his website!!

I heard Dave was performing with Neil Young. So if that's true, then Crash with Stevie is out.

unless they do it as a trio...Stevie could make sure Neil Young doesn't fall down. He looked pretty shaky on the Haiti fundraiser.

WTF is "so and so"?!?!

that's what my mom said. I don't think she knew who he was so she commented that "the old guy" was funny. He sounded pretty good, though!

There's nothing new in this article... but it just puts this whole Stevie performance thing into some context:

Artists Gear Up For 'music's Biggest Night' -- The 52nd Annual Grammy Awards
Fri, 2010-01-29 13:37.
By: Lauren Moraski

Music artists have started touching down in Los Angeles, as the countdown begins for the 52nd annual Grammy Awards. On Sunday (January 31st), the Recording Academy will host what's billed as "Music's Biggest Night" at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The Grammys will broadcast live starting at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.

Beyonce leads the pack this year with ten nominations. Country star Taylor Swift is up for eight, while the Black Eyed Peas, Maxwell and Kanye West have six nods apiece. DJ David Guetta, Jay-Z, and Lady Gaga have five nominations each; and Colbie Caillat, Michael Giacchino, Kings Of Leon, John Newton, producer RedOne, Bruce Springsteen, T-Pain, and Keith Urban each have four nominations.

Performers will include all five Album of the Year nominees -- Beyonce, the Black Eyed Peas, Lady Gaga, Dave Matthews Band and Swift, as well as Bon Jovi, Green Day, Lady Antebellum, Stevie Nicks, Maxwell, Pink and the Zac Brown Band.

The show will also feature a 3-D tribute to Michael Jackson featuring Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson, Smokey Robinson, Carrie Underwood and Usher. Special 3-D glasses for the Jackson performance will be available at Target stores through Sunday.

Presenters will include: Stephen Colbert, Alice Cooper, Sheryl Crow, Wyclef Jean, Miranda Lambert, John Legend, Jennifer Lopez, Katy Perry, Seal, Quentin Tarantino, Placido Domingo, Juanes, Glee actress Lea Michelle, Lionel Richie, Keith Urban, Simon Baker, Ryan Seacrest, Chris O'Donnell, Robert Downey Jr., Kaley Cuoco, Kristen Bell, Justin Bieber, Jeff Bridges, Miley Cyrus, Josh Duhamel, the Jonas Brothers, Mick Fleetwood, Norah Jones, Ke$ha, LL Cool J, Ricky Martin, Carlos Santana and Ringo Starr.

Mary J. Blige will sing a duet with tenor Andrea Bocelli on Simon & Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" -- as part of a fundraiser for Haiti earthquake relief.

Eminem, Drake, Lil Wayne and Travis Barker will team up for a special performance of Drake's single, "Forever."

Jamie Foxx will do a special segment with T-Pain, Slash and Doug E. Fresh.

According to the New York Post, Lady Gaga will do a duet with Elton John.

The circus-themed Grammy Celebration after-party will feature performances from Ne-Yo, Sam Moore and mixtape DJ Mick Boogie.

So she's not part of the MJ tribute. She's not part of the Haiti segment. She's not part of the Jamie Foxx segment. She's not part of the Elton/Gaga segment. Basically she's doing the same thing as:

-Lady Antebellum: whose new album is about to debute at #1 on the Hot 100.
-Green Day: who received nominations for the single "21 Guns."
-Maxwell: who was nominated for a ****load of Grammy's for his 2009 album.
-Pink: who has a couple of nominations for her Funhouse album
-Zac Brown Band: who was nominated for a ****load of Grammy's as well.
-Bon Jovi: who recently released a new album.

...and then there is...

-Stevie Nicks: nothing new to promote, no nominations.

This is truly puzzling. It's not like the Grammy's are going begging for performers; I am sure there are tons of artists who would kill for a performing slot and all of that exposure. The fact that Waddy will be there too means that she is not likely to be performing with another band. So by process of elimination, she is either doing a solo song, or she's doing something with Beyowulf, Taylor Swift, Pink or Maxwell.

The suspense is killing me!

^^^ When you put it that way it's just plain weird that she is performing, she has basically no reason to be there.
I'm really, really curious.

Several people have posted Stevie-related comments on an article on huffingtonpost.com about the Grammys, even though the article doesn't mention her. Here's the link if anyone's interested: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-..._b_440630.html

Apparently the author has some sort of inside connection to the Grammys...

I posted the following comment:

"The ONLY reason I will be watching the Grammys is to see Stevie Nicks. I'm 20 years old and couldn't care less about artists like Lady Gaga or the Black Eyed Peas. I do listen to new music and I do have several songs by performers like Lady Gaga or the Black Eyed Peas on my ipod, but I don't consider their work to be great musical achievements. But I will suffer through all of that to see Stevie Nicks show the world that she still has it!"

and he responded with the frustratingly vague:
"You will be happy you watched"

!! I am very very very curious!

Stevie doesn't need a reason to be there, SHE IS STEVIE ****ING NICKS! She doesn't need to promote anything to rock the grammys! But who knows, maybe during 2009 she made an album secretly and is going to the grammys to announce it and perform what is soon to be her new hit single!! Bahaha, one can dream.

[AliceLover]

Too friggin cool. What I would love to happen:

The guitar riff of Edge of Seventeen starts and Stevie enters in white outfit. Then sings the first verse and chorus, then all sorts of other artists come out to sing verses.

Interesting that the author commented about Stevie several times to various posts.
This is certainly piquing my interest even more. I wish there was some more media buzz about it, but then again it might be nice to see whatever the surprise is unfold before our eyes. A little mystery is always good.

Agreed. WTF is this all about?
