(REVIEW) STEVIE NICKS: LAKE TAHOE

STATELINE — Singer-songwriter Stevie Nicks entertained a packed house of all ages at Harvey’s Outdoor Arena for nearly two hours Friday night.

Following a 30-minute performance from Mia Dyson, Nicks opened with “Fall from Grace” and “Outside the Rain.”

A performer for more than four decades, the 62-year-old Nicks sang solo hits and those from Fleetwood Mac, a band with which she once sang. She still has a strong voice and her waist-length blond hair makes her seem some 20 years younger.

The show was part of the Lake Tahoe Summer Concert Series.

Seven musicians accompanied her along with two back-up singers.

Nicks used props, such as a tambourine with streamers attached, Mardi Gras-style beads and flowing scarves.

TAHOE OR SANTA BARBARA.... YOU BE THE JUDGE

Not exactly sure what night these were taken... Could have been Santa Barbara, or last night in Tahoe... None the less... Some nice shots.

SIGNS OF LIFE IN TAHOE... STEVIE SOUNDS GREAT ON THESE!

RHIANNON RINGS THROUGH THE NIGHT AIR IN LAKE TAHOE... Video captures what appears to be the outside of the venue at Harvey's in Lake Tahoe last night - so I shrunk it down ... Stevie sounds awesome!



Also, on Dreams.... Nothing much to watch on this clip, but the vocals are really strong and clear... Noticing she doesn't have the usual video screens on either side of the stage - and the crowd size seems fairly large.
