Default Stevie Q&A on the Nicks Fix

Did anyone know this was going on right now? I just saw it in the updates yesterday. I'm hesitant to submit a question - her answers are very "maybe", "it was great", "possibly", "someday", "i'd love to"....i mean, this is from a woman that writes constantly? I'm afraid of being let down by her rather short and blah answers.

The ASK STEVIE thing has been an ongoing Q & A she has done for the last few years, every several months or so she answers some more questions...Nothing new really.
Although I didn't know she had answered a few more questions..thanks for sharing

Chris

I think the subject of reissuing her catalog is new. She says sometime next year. Hope that sticks!

Q: Long Way To Go is one of my favorites, Stevie. What were you trying to convey in that song?

A: I had to go a long distance.

Oh, yeah....

This is one of my personal favorites:

"Question 82 - from Anonymous:
Poets, Legands, Priests of nothing. I love the vibration of these words together. I would greatly appreciate the true meaning of "priests of nothing."

Stevie's answer:

It means the master of nothing.
"

Gee, Stevie, thanks for that indepth analysis....

Although, you can't really blame her when she has to answer excruciating questions like this:

"Question 73 - from Alex:
Stevie,
Why do you say 'this is for you, daddy' before you sing Landslide (live)?

Thank you, Alex

Stevie's answer:

I was dedicating the song to my father, who was in the audience that night.
"



Holy crap- what was John Kinney thinking when he passed that one along??

Out of all questions submitted, why in holy hell would she decide to answer this? Her blonde dye must be seeping through her scalp and into her brain.

Maybe no one should ever ask her about her lyrics. To bad we can't ask stuff like "so, what kind of f**cked up nut is Joe Walsh really?"

Thumbs down Disappointed

I asked long ago (years) about the meaning of Sisters of the Moon (mentioning what I thought in the lyric interpretation).

But my question was never posted. I asked about it, they told me all questions are always send to Stevie. But in the same answer they told me that after a gap (I think th Enchanted tour, or the TISL tour, can't remeber) they made a new list, batch of questions, or something like that. So at the end I don't know if my question was discarded or not, was received by Stevie or not.

Anyway, I think my question was more interesting than the one about the "daddy dedication". In fact I found a lot of silly questions

Default Short answers

I'd imagine that she hand writes quick answers on paper and then faxes them back to John. I doubt she uses email, though she is one of the few people in the world who still uses a typewriter

The other theory is that there is a "ghost writer," like Stevie's assistant, answering the questions. That might explain why the responses occasionally seem impersonal.

i really think that's what it is....when i read those responses i just can't imagine that's Stevie writing them....it's more like a Stevie pod from "Invasion of the Body Snatchers."

Q: who is the "Beautiful Child"
A: i saw a child that was beautiful when i was writing the song.

Q: what's "Storms" about?
A: nasty weather.
