Jim Ladd always said what a nice woman she was, & how different that was from the typical rock stars & industry bigwigs.

...and she also made her assistant take her tranquilizers which she thought were killing her. Gotta have the yin with the yang I suppose!

her hands look bad, but if you look back at pictures from the rumours tour and everything, her hands have always sorta looked like a witches hands...

So, what are you saying? Stevie's retinue does not enhance your appreciation of her?

Yes, there's a lot of poetry in her character. Indeed, she reminds me of Belinda, especially when her hair falls on her back in equal curls.

Well she's not a witch, I mean all you have to do is stop by her house, drop in, theres no like owls up there, you know?

But I do agree that her hands have always been somewhat strange. Sometimes they are tiny and demure, but this picture always makes me wonder...
Maybe her hands just swell up easier than other sometimes?

It's inflammation - it's quite common. And, there could be a variety of causes or reasons for it. It seems to me that the most logical reason is arthritis; again not uncommon and not uncommon to act up at her age. Normal. I'm sure she deals with it with grace and has uses the best treatments available. She's a classy, beautiful, 61 year old rock star regardless...

I wish Johnny Stew would post here again.

I agree.. Stevie Nicks will always be beautiful to me... Always and forever..

I love how 1 candid photo of Stevie gets 5 pages of comments.

So as most of you probably know these recent candid shots really bother me with the old getting older thing. I'm in denial, you know? Anyway I had to show my mom this picuture to get her opinon and keep in mind a) she's the same age as Stevie b) she has an un-biased opinion unliker her daugher. Here's what she said:
1. Oh that's just a bad picture.
2. You can always tell a woman's age by her hands.
OUCH!

Yes, and the same 5 people keep going on and on and on and on (ad nauseam) about it.

The night Stevie's Soundstage aired on PBS coincided with me having some friends over at the house. As soon as Stand Back came on, and Stevie walked out and started singing my friend Scott said: "Oh, this must be one of her classic concerts! What year is this from?" I told him it was filmed just 7 months ago. Scott looked all confused... and said "but she doesn't look a day over 35... what year is this really from? How old is she here?" and I replied "60." He just looked at me asounded and said "SIXTY!?!? She's SIXTY there??? You're pulling my leg!" He was totally unconvinced. So the concert went on, and he studied Stevie very closely, paying rapt attention. Towards the end, he finally said "You're right... she's 60." And I asked what made him change his mind... he said "her hands. Just look at her hands. You can always tell a woman's true age by her hands. Plus, her motions and dances are rather stiff. She doesn't move around like she used to."

Well the people, they love her, but still they're the most cruel.
