That's fantastic!

I'm so jealous. Did she sign autographs at the show or was it after the show?

Soo I didn't get to meet her on oprah, but after the show me and my friend ( her name is Stevie too lol) went sightseeing in downtown Chicago so we were up at the John Hancock tower and I saw on twitter that she was spotted at RL ( Ralph Lauren restaurant) with Sheryl crow! So me and Stevie rushed down there cause it was only two blocks away. We were just gonna go in and casually sit down but it was a small restaurant and it was packed! I asked the hostess If I could use the bathroom to get a better look around and as Soon as I passes the hostess station I saw waddy and the whole band , and then Stevie with Sheryl and her kids! We didn't want to interrupt her dinner so we went outside and waited for her... As Soon as she came out I asked if I could get my picture with her and she said she just got dine with dinner and she really didn't feel up to pics she was exhausted and she had a show tomorrow but then she said she would sign my tambourine I had been carrying all day ( since I was hoping to meet her @ oprah) and I told get how awesome she was on oprah, she said , oh you were there!? And I said yea I loved your duet with Sheryl and she said well them your in for a treat tomorrow! ( I told her I was going to concert tomorrow with her and rod) and then she said thank you see you tomorrow! It was very short but so glad I got my tambo signed!

For those that attended, How did Stevie sound on Landslide? I know she can sing this song in her sleep, but did she add anything extra to this performance vocally, How did Stevie look? Any surprises in wardrobe or did she have her boots on?details pretty please.

Wow how exciting! I'm so happy for you! I don't think I would have the nerve to ask.

But "too tired" to have your picture taken? Seriously? It's not like she had to stand there while someone drew the picture. I know she meant "she probably didn't look her best and "looked" tired. But still, come on

Portia, you just gave me a great idea for the Seattle show... I'm going to Twitter-stalk the sh*t out of her and see if I can do something similar! I don't think I'm making it to the show... found 5th row tickets for $200 online but I don't have the money to spend on those right now and I'm not sure if I want to pay to only hear her play a few songs. But that's a great idea!

Wow!!!! What a great story Portia!! Thanks for sharing. That is so COOL. Have fun tonight at the show. Ugh, hearing that Sheryl is going to be there is making me want to go more and more, because I'm sure it's going to be amazing. But I just don't think I can afford it. I absolutely want to see her after In Your Dreams is released and she tours, but I don't think I can afford to do both... although I keep looking at last minute tickets. haha Where are you sitting tonight?

She was interviewed along with Sheryl and topic discussed included babies,the overnight success of rumours, being an older singer and still peforming. She did tell stories of how during the Rumours tour she and Chris were carfeully watched by the entourage of security guards so they usually just hung out in the hotels, but the guys went off to do who knows what and nothing else was said.

Stevie was the only one who got a sit don interview. All the others just performed and then were briefly spoken too by Oprah.

Joan Jett was next with Miley Cyrus as the surprise guest who sang with her on a medley of her hits.

Salt N' Peppa was next and they just sang with no surprise guest and Oprah talked to them.

Pat Benetar came after them and sang with Love is A Battlefield with Avril Lavigne.
She was asked about her admiration for Pat and Stevie and she said something about the fact that they followed their dreams and made it in the music world and that it was inspiring etc.

Then the big finale was Sister Sledge singing with almost all of the other guests "We are Family"

The show was over but for an oprah.com exclusive they filmed Stevie Nicks singing Secret Love.

I was the lucky one who got vip reserved seats and a backstage Meet and Greet with Stevie. She gave me two autograph's as a present one was a standard publicity photo the other a reprint of some Rhiannon drawing with words on the back. She confirmed that she was going to be playing in Glastonbury and looking to play some places that she had not visited in a while. Naturally I asked her to return to Ottawa. While in the back I saw Pat (Who said to my sister Nice Shoes). Sheryl and her baby were mingling as was Sister Sledge. Oprah walked by and shook our hands.

During a break in filming she took questions from the audience and my brother asked her what her first live concert was and she said James Brown in 1968 when she was 14. She remarked how she lost her shoes at the concert and her father was mad.

Matt
thanks Matt, I'm was going to post how the show was but you've said it all..it was a great show and a great experience to have been there....
At the end of the show when they were all on stage (other then Joan Jett, guess she had to leave) Oprah reached over and took Stevie's hand, it was very sweet. Oprah was singing along to Secret Love and I was surprised that she knew all the words then I realized she was reading the words from the monitor lol

Haha, that's interesting that she was reading words from the monitor. I've always kind of wondered how she seemed to always know the words to her guests' songs... The secret is revealed! haha No, but that's still pretty cool. Glad you had a good time! I'm so excited! I can't wait for Wednesday to get here!

What matters is that Stevie can STILL outsing Miley any day (and this is actually coming from a really big Miley fan).
And Miley is ugly too...with all that money she should fix that Mr. Ed mouth of hers...
