Random Stevie/FM Song Hearing

[grace_face]

The other day I'd been listening, as usual lately, to a whole heap of FM and Stevie solo songs (preparing for the FM concert in TWO SHORT WEEKS!!!!), while I was on the computer.

I came out of the room to go to the bathroom, and heard Seven Wonders floating around from outside somewhere...someone in the apartment block next to mine was playing Stevie/FM! WOO HOO! I wanted to play Seven Wonders as well, at the same time, and then had a little daydream thing of everyone within hearing distance playing it also...and it'd be amazing. Seven Wonders, playing from 20-50 houses and apartments, all at once...strangers united by Stevie! How wonderful that would be!!

I love little moments like that

Yesterday, I was eating breakfast at a local cafe and I was wearing my Unleashed shirt. Our waitress sees it and she says, "nice shirt.... I mean, I really like your shirt." I could tell she was a legitimate fan and was trying to supress her excitement. So I said, "Thank you! I had first row to a show of theirs in May." and THEN she let the excitement out. It was great.

Aw, that's nice. I love it when something like that happens.

It's the same sort of feeling you get when you're sort of...you're not AT a show but you're NEAR it or on your way or you're on your way back home, or you're around the same area a day later or something, and you're clearly a fan cause you're wearing the relevant t-shirt or something, and you see other random people who also have some sort of merchandise on, and you feel like they're "with you", you know? I always feel safe seeing that for some reason.

Earlier this year we went to a Dweezil Zappa concert (Frank Zappa's son, for those who don't know), and there were quite a few "rough"-looking guys there, who if I were walking down a dark city street normally and saw them coming towards me I might be a bit nervous about, but they were also wearing Dweezil Zappa t-shirts, and you feel SAFE!

When we went to see Stevie in Alpharetta last year, we went to this BBQ joint called SmokeJack, and we were wearing our shirts. Our waitress was actually a HUGE fan and was going to the concert and was saying how she saw the band in 1987 and all of that good stuff- so we were united!!!

Suddenly out of the blue BBC Radio 2 played Nightbird this morning, and then just said Stevie Nicks Nightbird. The other day the played EO17 and last week they played Beauty and The Beast. Up until recently I have hardly heard any 'Stevie' songs on the radio - it felt so exciting.

My coworkers and I go to lunch together almost everyday. Last week, we walked into a local fast food restaurant and I hear Stevie singing the line, "I'm the Queen of the castle, you're the dirty rascal, crash into me." It made me smile - and I was really surprised at hearing her version...there... Awesomeness.

I posted this the other day on the rumours forum (i think) but it's so note worthy that i'm going to post it again.

The other day i was at work and was going about my boring grocery store duties when i heard Welcome to the Room... Sara playing over the speakers and i was shocked, it is really not a radio song at all and i wondered how on earth it got on there.

Needless to say i was singing along, my boss saw me and gave me a really strange look, this 18yr old six foot guy singing along to some corny 80's pop song, i was at that moment flaming red in the face

Awww! I love that story. That's gorgeous, heheh.
