Stevie Nicks Returns to the Stage in Portland with Surprising Setlist Shifts
The wait proved worthwhile. Nicks, now 77, looked radiant and sounded as hauntingly powerful as ever. But what truly caught fans and critics off guard were the unexpected adjustments to her setlist—small in number, but significant enough to spark headlines.
She opened the night with a curveball: a rollicking take on “Not Fade Away,” the Buddy Holly classic she once recorded for a tribute album, but had never used to kick off a tour. Even more stunning was the resurrection of “Angel,” a deep cut from Fleetwood Mac’s 1979 Tusk LP, absent from her live repertoire since the Wild Heart Tour in 1983.
Equally notable was the live debut of “The Lighthouse,” her latest single released last fall, marking the first time audiences heard the new track woven into her set.
For longtime followers, these changes underscore Nicks’ willingness to keep her live show evolving, balancing iconic hits with rarities and fresh material. If Portland is any indication, this tour won’t just be another victory lap—it will be a journey through the many eras of a voice that helped define rock history.
Check out highlights from the performance in the videos below.

Buckingham Nicks tallies the biggest sales week in over a decade for any album by Buckingham, Nicks or Fleetwood Mac
OUT OF THE ARCHIVES & ONTO THE CHARTS: ‘BUCKINGHAM NICKS’ DEBUTS ATOP 3 BILLBOARD CHARTS
The long-out-of-print 1973 release from a pre-Fleetwood Mac Lindsey Buckingham & Stevie Nicks hits the charts after its Rhino reissue.
By Keith Caulfield
The long-out-of-print self-titled album from Buckingham Nicks debuts at No. 3 on Top Album Sales with 30,000 copies sold in the United States in the week ending Sept. 25, according to Luminate. The set was originally released in 1973 before Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joined Fleetwood Mac and is the only album from the pair as a duo.
Buckingham Nicks also arrives on Top Rock Albums, Indie Store Album Sales, Catalog Albums (No. 1 on each); Top Rock & Alternative Albums, Vinyl Albums (No. 2); and the Billboard 200 (No. 11).
Originally issued through Polydor, Buckingham Nicks has been out of circulation (though widely bootlegged) until its official remastered Rhino reissue on Sept. 19. The project also made its official debut on CD, streaming services and as a digital download through Rhino, alongside a number of vinyl variants.
Upon the album’s reissue, Buckingham and Nicks shared on their respective Instagram accounts: “We’re so happy this album is getting a second life. We hope you love it.”
With 30,000 sold, Buckingham Nicks tallies the biggest sales week in over a decade for any album by Buckingham, Nicks or Fleetwood Mac. The last time a set from any of those acts had a larger sales week was on the Top Album Sales chart dated Oct. 25, 2014, when Nicks’ 24 Karat Gold: Songs From the Vault, sold 33,000 copies in its opening week (No. 7).
Further, with 18,000 copies sold on vinyl, the album notches the largest sales week in the format in the modern era (since Luminate began electronically tracking sales in 1991) for any project by Buckingham, Nicks or Fleetwood Mac.

Fleetwood Mac’s Lindsey Buckingham & Stevie Nicks: 1973 Album Reissue Tops iTunes Charts Worldwide
When Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks’ elusive 1973 debut finally hit streaming, fans around the world rushed to rediscover it — and the iTunes Albums Charts tell the story.
In Norway, the record stormed straight to #1, while New Zealand crowned it at #2. The U.S., Netherlands, and Belgium all agreed on a #3 peak, underscoring the duo’s enduring pull across continents. The U.K. and Australia weren’t far behind at #4, and Canada locked it inside the Top 5 at #5.
In total, the album landed in the Top 10 in 11 countries, including the Philippines (#10), South Africa (#6), Austria (#10), and Ireland (#8). Across Europe, it held steady mid-chart in Germany (#11), Luxembourg (#12), Finland (#14), Denmark (#18), and Sweden (#19).
Even farther afield, the record resonated in Israel (#23), Switzerland (#28), Turkey (#45), Hong Kong (#68), and Mexico (#183), proving that the Buckingham Nicks legacy isn’t bound by borders.
The median global chart peak was #12, meaning half the territories placed it at or above that level, while the average peak was ~#29, dragged down by a few lower results. The spread between Norway’s #1 and Mexico’s #183 tells the tale of a record that was both a global rediscovery and a localized phenomenon.
For an album unavailable for decades, Buckingham Nicks’ sudden digital debut made a decisive global impact, cementing its place not just as a lost prelude to Fleetwood Mac, but as a chart-topping moment in its own right.
10 Chart Stats That Prove the Buckingham Nicks Reissue Is a Global iTunes Success
1. Top 5 Global Success
The album reached the Top 5 in at least 7 countries: Norway (#1), New Zealand (#2), United States (#3), Netherlands (#3), Belgium (#3), Australia (#4), and United Kingdom (#4)
2. Multiple #3 Peaks
It peaked at #3 in three major markets (US, Netherlands, Belgium) – showing consistent mid-top-tier performance across very different regions
3. Nordic Dominance
Scandinavia proved especially strong: Norway gave the album its highest global peak (#1), while Finland (#14), Denmark (#18), and Sweden (#19) all placed it within the Top 20
Every major English-speaking market charted it inside the Top 10:US (#3)
- UK (#4)
- Australia (#4)
- Canada (#5)
- New Zealand (#2)
5. European Mid-Chart Presence
Beyond the Top 10, it reached Italy (#22), Switzerland (#28), Luxembourg (#12), Ireland (#8), Germany (#11), and Cyprus (#47). These middle-tier placements reflect moderate traction in non-English European markets
6. Wider Global Spread
The album still managed to chart in far-flung regions like Philippines (#10), South Africa (#6), Israel (#23), Turkey (#45), Hong Kong (#68), Mexico (#183), showing wide international interest
7. Lowest Notable Peak
Its weakest showing came in Mexico (#183) – over 180 chart spots lower than Norway’s #1 placement, a striking 182-position spread between best and worst
8. Average Chart Peak
Calculating across all 25 countries listed, the average peak position is ~29.5, which is skewed upward by the deep Mexico (#183) and France (#147) placements
9. Median Chart Position
The median chart peak is #12 (Luxembourg) – meaning half of the listed countries placed the album at #12 or better, underscoring a generally strong worldwide debut
10. Top 10 Concentration
In total, the album cracked the Top 10 in 11 countries – nearly half of the reporting regions – highlighting its strong commercial impact upon digital reissue

Stevie Nicks Shares Letter to Family while Recording Buckingham Nicks
Stevie shared a letter she had written back in the early '70s while making the Buckingham Nicks album. She indicated the letter was one that her mother had kept for all these years. For anyone who remembers seeing the Sound City Documentary that Dave Grohl put together back in 2013, you may recall Stevie reading some of the letter in the documentary. It was cool then, and it's cool now to read it in its entirety. What a piece of history, and look back at the early stage of her career before it really had even taken off. She was wise then and is still wise now.
Well, here I am - once again at the “famous” Sound City Recording Studio. I am getting very tired of sitting around listening to 12 hours of music per day. Oh well, I know it will pay off in the end, and when I am sitting in my small but luxurious Beverly Hills home overlooking my small but tasteful pool that is totally secluded, where I can sun in the nude and tan my entire fat body while waiting for my plastic surgery leg lift - it will all be worth it. Otherwise, everything here is just “peach-y”.
I hope that all of my little family is doing fine and not working too hard. I am sure that dad is already beautifully tan and lythe - making those gorgeous blue grey eyes even more sparkling than they usually are. How sickening that he looks better than I do at 47(?) and I’m only 25. (Give me a break, Dad!)
Speaking of being almost 25 - I have decided that we should set aside the entire month of May to celebrate the fact that I am now 1 quarter of a century old. A new landmark like this should not simply be passed over as yet another birthday, but should include a gala celebration. I shall leave it to the three of you to plan it. By the way, presents will be accepted any time after the first of May - no C.O.D’s please.
Moving right along - I just want to say that I certainly do miss you all, and wish you could be here to hear some of this stuff. By the way - Dad and Chris - that rock and roll tune that you both liked (“Baby Baby, don’t treat me so bad”) with the fancy guitar work is almost finished and Lindsey may go down in history as one of “greats” in guitar playing. It really is quite amazing.
Well, no more news as of yet
- so much love to you all - and hold good thoughts about this thing.
I love you,
Stevie
Buckingham Nicks a short but energetic work of art.
