Strange Dream I met Her

[HejiraNYC]

Bumpity bump bump...

Before I forget all about it, I wanted to get this down in writing. I had the most absurd, surreal dream last night (this morning, actually). It was so bizarre that, in the dream, I was actually slapping my knee and screaming "oh, no she di'in't!" And I never, ever slap my knee and scream "oh, no she di'in't!" in real life.

In a nutshell... Fleetwood Mac was featured on some kind of dance competition TV show like "Dancing with the Stars" (which I don't watch, by the way). They appeared to be either singing or lip syncing a new song called "Do What You Do," which was kind of an upbeat song. First Lindsey was wearing a black speedo-like thing and performing some kind of a bizarre Martha Graham-ish solo interpretive dance; I thought he looked sinewy and taut for an old geezer. Then Stevie comes out wearing a decidedly unflattering white tutu and proceeds to do these impossibly perfect splits in mid-air with Lindsey assisting her on pointe while singing/syncing her part of the song. The audience was loving it! Then, shocker of all shocks, S&L leave the stage and Christine walks out with John. And as she sings her part of the song, she and John perform a smoldering Argentine tango, which included John dragging her across the floor. It was flawless. But it all came down to the big close... where, at the end of the tango, Christine was supposed to fall into John's arms. But she couldn't do it... as if she didn't trust him. So she took a big (mis)step forward and broke her own fall. The judges loved the performance overall, but they cited Christine's big crisis of confidence at the end and voted the whole band off the show. They kept replaying that scene in slo-mo where Christine didn't follow through with her fall into John's arms.

Discuss.

That's awesome But I would do the same if asked to fall into John's arms, can you just imagine?

"Ok catch meeee.... NOW!"
"Oooh shiny fishing rod *grabby hands*"

I don't suppose you caught the song in detail, because that's a nifty dream to have in its own right. I would love to hear the Mac perform new material in my dreams just to me.

How freaked out would you be if; not only the new "Stevie and Dave Stewart" album turned out to be a Mac album, but it also had that song? I'd be PMing you for lottery numbers

Lmfao, I like how you're like 'Discuss.' after.

This is a very bizarre dream, I could never imagine Stevie on Dancing With The Stars, but it would definitely be thrilling, lol.

Oh, and the Argentine Tango is one of the hardest to pull off! Stupid judges should have gave them a break and not replayed it over and over ...this is why Christine probably left the band alltogether.

Pretty acurately graphic description of Dancing With The Stars for somebody who doesn't watch the show. Explain.

I was thinking the same thing Even I couldn't give a description like that, and I watch it religiously!

That's interesting, because I was just describing that moment in the Tusk photo shoot where Christine (pushed by Stevie) is losing her balance and John's strong, steady hand pushed her upright again. I loved the metaphor that visual created and your subconscious reflects the opposite. Nice.

Looks exactly like the video for Gypsy.

This line literally made me me chuckle out loud and then ChiliD's "Explain" response-omg too funny.

This is quite an interesting dream you had. I wish I had dreams like this. Or at least remember them with this much detail.

Music Review, Twin Cities Daily Planet 5/31/2014

Freelance writers Sally Hedberg and Dana Raidt started Girl Germs after “Stevie Nicks came to them in a dream.” The message delivered by the liminal Nicks was that they should do more to promote the presence and history of women in rock music. Shortly afterwards, they began the website girlgerms.com and organized the First Annual Girl Germs concert at First Ave on Friday May 30, 2014.

The idea for the show was that local artists, not necessarily all women or women-fronted, would pick and pay tribute to notable female artists in rock history. Because of this, the show had a very eclectic selection of musical styles and moods. CRYSTAL, a new band that boasts two members of noise rock masters Brute Heart, kicked things off by playing a few of Sade’s hit songs. Rather than staying too loyal to the original, they broadened the songs just a bit to make it closer to their own style. In general, I enjoyed their approach as they turned Sade’s smooth sexy jams into something just a little bit alien. Their cover of "Smooth Operator "was the highlight of their set and they managed to get some of the early show crowd to stay inside and sing along.

http://first-avenue.com/performer/girl-germs

Girl Germs = Sally + Dana, two music-loving writer gals who met at a lobster bar. Back in 2013, Sally interviewed Dana for an article about Girls Got Rhythm Fest. They hit it off; a few months later Stevie Nicks came to each of them in a dream and prophesied their true calling: to honor the lady musicians who have shaped their lives and careers. So they created Girl Germs (a shout-out to the name of a Bratmobile song/continuation of Dana’s old podcast, which she originally started as a show on Radio K in 2010) and a series of tribute nights in Minneapolis devoted to influential female artists.

I used to dream rather frequently that Stevie was picking me up from school, to tell me all about her new album. This was in the late 80's.

It's weird that people have dreams where Stevie shows up at their houses!!

i love this thread
I once dreamt she was doing a small, intimate concert
and one of the provisos of being up in the front row
was to come up on stage and do a line with her ... not of a song
it was great!

[lovethemac1]

I had a dream that I had to look after Stevie, Lindsey and John because they couldn't make their flight after a concert here. I took them to our summer cottage, which I thought was so cool, but they kept trying to fight each other so I would have to give them all time outs. I had to devise a swimming schedule so that there was only one in the water at a time, they kept trying to drown each other. I was really mad at the 3 of them for making it so much work. Then we came back to the city and I said that they all behaved like toddlers. When I woke up, I really felt like I had had a visit with them. It made me smile.
