Stevie's and Fleetwood Mac's tours both always include North Carolina... usually multiple stops in NC, too. I've seen Stevie in Charlotte, Greensboro, Raleigh, and in Greenville, SC.

I went to the Fleetwood Mac show in Charlotte last year, but has Stevie been to NC in the past few years? I'm too lazy to look up the past tour dates. lol! I know she's done some in the past, but I'm not sure how long ago. I've only been a fan since 2006 and I really couldn't afford tickets during my high school years.

She didn't come to NC in '07 or '08, but she's pretty much toured there every other time. Unless Stevie cuts her tour short next year in order to run back to the Mac, I'd expect she'll hit the Carolinas. I expect her to do a pretty extensive tour next year, but there are the Rumours Fleetwood Mac starts touring in July... so who knows.

If she comes near me I'm definitely going to try to go.

always yes! I see her as much as I can! This is a finite thing. Every chance is a blessing!

Agree with this as well!

Maybe, I'm saying "maybe", this is what seperates the casual fans & the hardcore fans.
I can see the money issue, but because of same setlist etc. her voice not up to par pleeeeez! Its wear & tear ,its par for the cource she's 62 not 26 and.......wait for it.............Theres a new friggin album in the works and there will "hopefully" be at least 1 new song that the world has never heard before....Thats reason enough for me.

I have to disagree. I am not even close to a casual fan. The amount of money and time I've invested in this woman's career is staggering. She is the number one musical force in my life, and has been for 23+ years. I simply have no desire to see the same show I've seen 7-10 times. Just like I have no interest in seeing the same movie that many times, or going to the same place for vacation that many times or having sex in the same position over and over and over. At some point enough is enough, and I reached that point with Stevie's live sets a few years back.

If Stevie drops the cover songs, and changes her setlist substantially then I'll go. Otherwise I can watch the performances I want to see on YouTube. Of course she'll perform songs from the new album, but that alone is not enough. Her voice matters not - what she chooses to sings with it matters entirely.

I sorta wish I hadn't seen her in AC this last go 'round. But I guess I will have to see her this time to support her new album and, hopefully, slightly switched up set list.

Anyone on here, (The ledge), who says thay wont go see Stevie beacause her voice is done, should probably find another web-page to hang around on 24/7.

Stevie is Stevie, her live solo show is brilliant, very few people in the crowd complain about the overall presentation, most people state that they are blown away by how good she is, (okay I am para-phrasing here), I have not heard a complaint at any of her shows,

For Fans on here to say they would not go see her 'Live" given the chance, strikes me as wierd,

I know everyone is entitled to their opinion, but why be negative about Stevie,

okay its freedom of speech, etc, but really, why complain, just don't go.

Invariably, the naysayers are typically the ones who haven't seen her in ___ years yet they are passing judgment on her "deteriorating" voice based on crappy sounding YouTube clips and bootlegs.

See maybe thats the thing, I still get the goose bumbs and huge smile when she walks on stage. For me that hasn't gone away, it may some day, but not today. I just still get that "thrill" of watching her perform. I have spent many $ as well but thats "my thing" some people pay $500.00 to go see a football game, Stevie's my football so to speak. I also live in Calif. and she plays up & down this state so her shows are more doable for me.

There is no fan contract that stipulates that you must see Stevie live. And there is no fan contract that dictates you must like every single thing she does. Personally, I'm a fan of Stevie in her height. Pre Klonopin Stevie. That's Stevie I fell in love with, and that's what defines who Stevie is to me. That's not to say she doesn't still write fantastic songs, or she doesn't still pull on the occasional stellar concert. I've seen Stevie quite a few times this past decade, so I can't be accused of dismissing her altogether. The thing that turns me off most is her lethargy and indifference. I can understand she's losing her range, and she's getting older. But the indifference of her performances this past decade is the silver bullet that has me upset. She's much happier and more interactive solo, but especially in the Mac, she's like a Steviebot. Another reason I haven't seen Stevie since she toured with Tom Petty is she's had no new material to support. I can only hear Rhiannon, Edge, and Dreams so many times. I'll be infinitely more inclined to see her once she's got some new songs to play.

Heck, I've never seen her and I love almost every thing about her. But I've never had extra money, and I won't go into premature debt just to see her if I can sit at home and watch the Soundstage dvd.
