I'm with the few people who want her to focus on making the record. TISL is a fine LP and in her top 3 best solo lps easily .Id rather see her do good studio work than go on a geezer fest summer tour to rake in the dough that neither she nor Henley need(if anyone on here thinks either of them do they are mistaken)Stevie admits herself that while she squandered fortunes on the high life she was never anywhere near broke there were too many royalities coming in from her dual careers plus she didn't have Mick's psychotic penchant for buying real estate he didn't need.In the old days she recorded ,then toured. The break in the Wild Heart sessions for the Mirage tour being the exception but there was an album to promote.Touring with no album to promote is what these 70s bands and singers with no major labels or chance of having a successful album do now .She is not yet in that category so she should not do it and does not need to .In fact even after the album is finished I'd like to see her limit her touring this is a woman that had problems touring in her 20s and is now 3 years away from 60 for Chrissakes.

Enough touring already, Stevie!

I feel the same way. Stevie needs to concentrate on that new cd or whatever cd (reissues/remasters) she plans on releasing this year instead of ANOTHER tour. Take a break, Stevie!

I posted the Don/Stevie info on an Eagles message board. A few people want to see Don team up with Sheryl Crow.

instead of Stevie.

That would be fine in my book as long as Don and especially Sheryl stay away from Stevie.

This double bill does not sound like it is going to go over very well with either Eagles or Mac fans.

Good let Don tour with Sheryl. Stevie please please stay away from Sheryl Crow!!!!!!! I know they are buddies and all but Sheryl is a horrible producer in my opinion.

Every show that I went on the TISL tour Sheryl was there.

I have seen enough of her thanks.

There probably isn't much for her to do on a reissue or remaster project, other than write some liner notes or gather up some old photos or something.

I mean, what would she need to record for a remastered "Bella Donna"? That's strictly an engineering feat.

I have mixed feelings about this...and Daniels site (SNL info ) is now reporting that a updated very best of Stevie Nicks is slated to be released in May! Ugh!!

I say enough of these greatest hits tours and packages I would be more excited about her releasing her re-mastered cataloge along with some left over goodies. But would much prefer new material!!!!

And besides the question remains, has Stevie over-saturated the market on the FM SYW tour the last 2 years!?.....

What was the big deal with Sheryl Crow showing up a lot? Carlos Rios & Brett Tuggle show up a lot, too. Sheryl played rhythm guitar -- no different from anyone in Stevie's band playing. Sheryl sang some backup -- no different from what Sharon or Mindy does.

The only difference between Sheryl & the rest of Stevie's band is that Sheryl played one or two of her own songs, but that's hardly a big deal, is it? Didn't you guys find the prospect of seeing Stevie help out on "Every Day Is a Winding Road" interesting? You know ... something a little off the well-trod path for a Stevie Nicks concert? Were you that impatient to get back into another round of "Gold Dust Woman" that you couldn't wait an additional five minutes for it? Hell, you knew it was coming anyway.

I find the Sheryl Crow antagonism baffling. She didn't share the stage that year with Stevie -- she was just a part of the band. And Stevie's bands need all the star power they can get.

Stevie used to do what Sheryl did: hop onstage with musician friends. And those appearances over the years were some of the most interesting of all Stevie time: Stevie with John Stewart, Stevie with Walter Egan, Stevie with Bob Welch, Stevie with Les Dudek, Stevie with Todd Rundgren, Stevie with Bob Dylan, Stevie with Petty & the Heartbreakers, etc.

You're kidding. What a bummer. "Timespace" & "Enchanted" aren't sufficient collections of her big hits? She & her label feel she needs a third hits package? Maybe she keeps releasing these things just to give members of her family design work.

She tours too much. A year rarely goes by in which she doesn't perform.

Is she really any worse than John Shanks or Rupert Hine or Glyn Johns or Thom Panunzio or Andrew Slater or Gordon Perry or Keith Olsen or Chris Lord-Alge or Rick Nowels, & so on & so forth?

I like Sheryl Crow and I absolutely love her contribution to the TISL album. I thought she did an amazing job as producer. However, I wouldn't necessarily want her to do a full fledged tour with Stevie just as i'm not sure I like the idea of Henley and Stevie together. Making a guest appearance is awesome. Come out and sing a song or two with Stevie. I'm cool with that.

To me, a tour featuring the lead singers of two supergroups just reaks of someone wanting to make a buck and line their pockets. Neither have anything to promote. Her reissues aren't out yet and although there has been talk of them, who knows if they'll even be out before the summer? I'm just not sure I like the direction this seems to be taking. I would have rather she toured smaller venues by herself.

I thought she really understod the vision that Stevie had for TISL and produced the hell out of it. Think of how much acclaim TISL garnered. It was an amazing album, IMO. So no, she certainly wasn't any worse than any of the aforementioned.
