'Nicks' Song Sung for Shop Owner'
(Thank you to Shacker, for the heads-up.)
(article located at: http://dailytelegraph.news.com.au/st...toryid=1011632)  Nicks' Song Sung for Shop Owner by Sydney Confidential's DORA TSAVDARIDIS March 9, 2004 WHEN singer Stevie Nicks dedicated a song at all three of Fleetwood Mac's Sydney concerts to a new friend β a 74-year-old named Margaret, fans were left wondering just who the woman is. "You just made my life so much better," Nicks said each show, just before dedicating Beautiful Child to Margaret. The Daily Telegraph can reveal that woman is doll shop owner Margaret Michael, who met the rock star when she turned up at her city store β Just White β late last week. As it turns out, Nicks has a real passion for dolls. "Before I left for Australia I had visited a dear friend of mine, Beverly, who was in hospital with cancer," Nicks told The Daily Telegraph yesterday. "When we got to Perth [February 27] I found out that she had died. I looked at this doll and her spirit was just there β it was quite incredible. I just felt it so strongly. "I've had the doll with me since then and I sit her up near me and it has really helped me get through this very difficult period," Nicks said. Although Nicks wanted to protect her new friend's privacy, Ms Michael was happy to share her special experience so people would know just "how lovely Stevie really is". "I'm not really into that sort of thing but she was so warm and so sincere," Ms Michael said.

Not everyone was wondering who Margaret was.
I sat behind Margaret's daughter at the show and you could tell the reference was closely related to them by the way they acted. I just had to ask......and they spilled the beans. I told her daughter that it was a big honour to have a song dedicated to her mum....especially since it was BC. Cheers Rochelle

Hey Coldplay: that's great that you told her what an honor that was! Any of us diehards would hate to think that a Stevie dedication went by not fully appreciated!!
Also, have you guys noticed how young Stevie always looks WITHOUT make-up? Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? Ricoh

I've never been big on dolls either, but cool story.

Most dolls ARE creepy as hell. But, hey, a doll is helping her deal with the death of a friend so they can't all be bad.
That pic is so adorable, despite any creepiness factor. I love that Stevie doesn't care if people see her without makeup. She looks gorgeous. And check out that sleeve...was she shopping in full chiffon garb?

I think it's cute!
Carrying her dolls around, she looks like a little girl.....who just happens to be draped in flowing chiffon!! LMAO Perhaps she broke into a stunning rendition of Rhiannon while she was at the cash register making her purchases, and just wanted to be prepard in costume!!!!  Stephanie

Btw, does anyone know what the lady meant by, "I'm not into that sort of thing?" The very last quote at the end? Does she mean she's not into dolls getting people through hard times or what?
