Stevie News: She's Touring With... - Page 7

I know a lot of people want Dave to tour with Stevie,But when did this ever become Official that they would tour together...Seems to me that this has just been wishful thinking on every one's part...
Dave has been asked repeatedly about touring with Stevie,and will not give an answer...If he does it's one of his vague,well that's up to Stevie her management and Warner bros answers...

Well, even if Rod Stewart and Stevie Nicks tour together, Dave Stewart could be in Stevie's band, perhaps even as 'musical director', or as a bandmember. It is likely Dave who best knows the new material he produced for SN, so for the 3, 4, or however many new songs she plans on having in her set, it would make sense for him to be in the band.
If not as her musical director, should that go to Waddy, Dave Stewart could still be on board.
Eons ago, she had Michael E, then quite young, as her musical director for a tour, so you never know-she could do the same with Dave Stewart, even if she tours with Rod Stewart. Stevie may be touring with two Stewarts!
Or, add Sandy Stewart on backup vocals, and it could be three Stewarts with her! Or no Stewarts!

'Cause, honestly I don't think Taylor Swift fans are burnin' up the net trying to keep up with Dave Stewart's (omg who's he?!?!?) tweets about the new Stevie cd/movie/tour...

It is all about exposure. You make Rod Stewart fans who wouldn't normally go to a Stevie Nicks concert go to a Stevie Nicks concert by pairing her with Rod and then promote her new album for them to pick up at the table for 15 dollars. And vice versa. If it was a BuckinghamNicks tour, of course it would be great for the fans, but it doesn't really garnish much more exposure for Stevie.

If Stevie really does tour with Rod and he does sing his American Songbook shat then I really hope she is the opener. That way I can leave.

Oh, I'm there.

If you want to picket something, picket "Ellen". No real sense picketing in front of a profitable concert.

mezzoforte · #**101** 01-07-2011, 03:20 AM

I honestly don't get it. Sure, they're both oldies acts at this point, but the styles and appeals are very different. I expect that casual fans of one will be put off by the involvement of the other.

Really hoping this is some huge misunderstanding...

Jondalar · #**102** 01-07-2011, 03:28 AM

The only thing that really bothers me is her being an opening act. Does she really want to end her career this way?

OutsideTheRain · #**103** 01-07-2011, 03:49 AM

i would much rather see her in smaller intimate theaters...they should be letting her career end gracefully not with these cheesy gimmicks

Artemis · #**104** 01-07-2011, 03:55 AM

While the idea of a Stevie Nicks / Rod Stewart combo tour is unnappealing... what's all this about her "ending" her career? She's only in her early 60s, she could carry on making albums and touring for years. I think this is just a quick money-grabbing / CD selling gimmick for Stevie, and then she'll be off on her next one.

I completely agree, I like Rod Stewart but I do NOT want to see Stevie as an opener! If she believes in this album that much and everyone else is saying it's her best yet, she should make it her own and have her OWN tour. I wouldn't mind if she did a few little shows with Rod before branching out into her own tour. She is just TOO GOOD to be an opener. It's really upsetting

If only Stevie had a computer she could come on here and see what we think, then maybe she could reconsider :/ But at least we'll hopefully hear exactly what is happening straight from Stevie on the Ellen Show *fingers crossed*
