Hurry up, Mayans.

They even plan to rent a C-5 to fly Stevie's ass around to each concert where it will be reconnected once inside the arena.

this is useless unless i can blow coke up stevie's flabby butt

wait. what?

Whatever. I'm in. Why the fark not?

Wow, she did not age well....


Another angle:

Maybe they'll get some airplay on the radio now.

Stevie Nicks seems to be the inspiration for some pretty bad artwork:



That being said, back in the day, she was teh hotness.

Nix was always over-rated: Linda Ronstadt was sexier and a better singer. As for "classic" rockers, RETIRE ALREADY. Give it up. You're too damn OLD.

Bleatwood Mac?

The One True TheDavid: You're too damn OLD.

Strangely enough nobody ever tells that to blues musicians. Granted, if we're talking about cawk rawk, there's a definite expiration date, but how would that category apply to Fleetwood Mac? I think they were in their 30s when Rumours came out.

/Teenage angst nu metal bands in their 30s are even more embarassing...

I thank the Maker that the world will end in 2012 then.

Judging by what the Marcus Amphitheater gets for Summerfest lately, I'm expecting an announcement about them headlining a show there any moment now.

Ishkur: Stevie Nicks' voice sounds like a foghorn at this point.

She still does it for me.

This is an old cowboy song that she performed live with chris isaak a few years back..

Makes my little heart flutter.

Oh cool, the Cute Lepers are touring.


Oh.

Article doesn't say whether or not Christine McVey will be joining them. I don't believe she participated in the last tour. Too bad....her keyboards and voice were pretty central to their sound.

Abacus9: Only if they bring back Peter Green.

And Bob Welch is dead and Danny Kirwan "retired" to his sister's basement after a couple years on the streets.

If you think their best albums were Kiln House and Mystery to Me, this tour is a non-event.

I am 60 years old and this is really exciting to me because man, these kids today AMEYERIGHT? HIPSTERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHIPSTERSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !

Rock and Roll and golf have a lot in common. They both have a seniors tour.

/I forgot which comedian said that. But it's certainly relevant.

What does Buffy Sainte-Marie have to do with Fleetwood Mac?

Hawk24: Article doesn't say whether or not Christine McVey will be joining them. I don't believe she participated in the last tour. Too bad....her keyboards and voice were pretty central to their sound.

This. The lack of Christine McVie was what kept me from seeing them on the last tour.

True story: the ONLY Fleetwood Mac album I own is Then Play On.

Fleetwood Mac is my parents' music. But I would fap to seeing them live in the '70s.

Meh, saw 'em in '87, that was enough. Stevie was my goddess thru the early '90s, then I upgraded to Suzanne Vega and Kate Bush.

/adjusts onion

I took my wife to see them on their 2010 tour. They were good, but yes it was an oldies tour. You've heard it all on classic rock radio 1,000 times by now.

My wife and I saw Lindsy Buckingham solo last month. Worst concert we have ever been to. His voice is completely gone. He tried to compensate by amplifying his sound so loud it made your ears bleed.

Truly awful

Stevie Nicks, you say?

No thanks.

Icetech3:

"Without peter green it's not even fleetwood mac..."

Yup. Although I do like the Bob Welch era, too. PG was the man, though. Probably the best true blues guitarist Britain ever produced.

Sorry, beg to differ. The artist has perfectly captured Stevie's face in her renderings. I wish I could draw such "bad art."

unfarkingbelievable: Sorry, beg to differ. The artist has perfectly captured Stevie's face in her renderings. I wish I could draw such "bad art."

Technically, the artist is quite proficient, in that the drawing looks exactly like Stevie Nicks. However, the composition is cliched and quite awful, and when put into context with her other works lends this creepy lesbian stalker vibe to the whole thing.

Upon closer inspection of this particular drawing we also note a number of flaws:

(1) The artist has apparently never seen an actual owl.
(2) Stevie's center of mass does not appear to lie above her rather bizarrely shoed feet. She should be falling over backward, although perhaps her heels are anchoring her to the ground.
(3) Stevie does not appear to be twirling in the drawing. As far as I know she has been in continuous twirl mode since approximately 1987.
(4) The drawing is missing a caption: "They said I could be anything I wanted...So I became a coke fiend."
(5) The dog in the drawing has entirely different lighting on it than tambourine-playing Stevie. Either the giant floating head of Stevie is casting a shadow on it, or the artist can't draw dogs very well, or else the dog is far in the background, and therefore enormous--perhaps it is Clifford the Big Red Dog.
(6) What exactly is going on in the drawing anyway? Stevie appears to be enjoying a little crepuscular tambourine thwapping while a dog sniffs her vagina and a tiny mis-shapened owl attacks her, perhaps attracted by the flapping of a scarf that seems inconveniently located for optimal tambourine usage.

How is it that a band can have one good album and still be talked about so many years later. It's not as if they have a body of work like the other bands of the day: Aerosmith, Stones, Beatles, Zeppelin etc.

Ditto the Eagles. One good album.

Go away...and thanks for the earworms.

I have one of these CD racks filled to overflowing with nothing but Fleetwood Mac albums. I have a second one filled to overflowing with their solo outings.

Fail Troll is Fail.

saw Stevie Nicks in Portland Maine in 82 or 83 she was twirling then

made me dizzy

Heh, WMMS had that in their rotation back in the day.

Can't see that happening today.

1) The Beatles aren't really of the same day as (the most well-known version of) Fleetwood Mac.
2) Both Fleetwood Mac and the Eagles have TWO good albums.

Hi, Prank! My comment comes from someone who can't even draw a realistic stick figure! :) You sound like a talented artist (your comment about different lighting and shadow, an observation I have no ability to even conceive of making) and I am nicely envious -- meaning, I think you are so lucky! If I could draw or paint ... my life would be so much more fun and amazing, I think.

The real question is "Can Stevie find someone to cover for her at the Fajita Roundup while she's out on tour?"

PickledBoodah: My wife and I saw Lindsy Buckingham solo last month. Worst concert we have ever been to. His voice is completely gone. He tried to compensate by amplifying his sound so loud it made your ears bleed.

That's sad to hear but completely understandable. He's constantly on "11" and doesn't seem to know how to back off to save his voice. Too bad, he's a gifted songwriter.

CSB: About a decade ago I was delivering some advertising comps to a local radio station early one morning. There, in the studio, was Lindsay Buckingham, doing a live promo for a local appearance. He played "Bleed To Love Her" like his life depended on it. It was depressing in a way - he was sining his heart out for a bunch of drive-time listeners in between ads for used cars and a mattress store.
/CSB

Can't be no Fleetwood Mac anymore now that all their Bobs died.
