DAVE STEWART RESURFACES FROM A FEW DAYS OF QUIET

And Michelle Branch gets a first listen to the new Stevie Nicks CD.

Earlier today, Dave Stewart re-emerged on his Twitter page to proclaim that he's been away for a few days due to filming for Stevie Nicks upcoming album and documentary or in the exact words of Mr. Stewart "I've been absent 4 days of Stevie Filming er shall I say strange stuff !!!" (not sure what that means). Either he was filming, or doing some other strange stuff !! In any case...still hard at work on his project with Stevie...and that's a good thing!

Michelle Branch entered the picture today... She stated that she heard Stevie's new album...and wants it! saying it's absolutely fantastic!... Another positive! A lingering question with a lot of us regarding Michelle is when oh when are we going to hear her version of "Say You Love Me"?  The version she recorded and Stevie produced for a yet to be released country tribute album to Fleetwood Mac's Rumours?... Haven't heard a word on this other then what Michelle has put out into the ether, not even what other artists contributed to the disc.  Could be that the project is dead or on hold.

Both Michelle and Dave's exchange on Twitter along with Mr. David Wild of Rollingstone and The Huffington Post can be found in the Dave Stewart and Stevie Nicks Timeline (scroll to the bottom)

FLEETWOOD MAC 1975: Saunders Field House at Mesa State Junior College

Mesa State yearbook

THE WAY WE WERE: 
Good concert, bad concert

It had to have been the best pre-punk, pre-big hair 1970s concert in Saunders Field House at Mesa State Junior College. “I was working at The Timbers Restaurant in November of 1975. I got the night off to go see Fleetwood Mac at the college. It was one of their first stops on their first tour and man was I surprised when a couple of girls got on stage, Christine McVie and Stevie Nicks.” remembers Ralph “Dinosaur” Donnen, past Mesa College class president.

Mike Radosevich was the Station Manager at KMSA at the time. “It was an incredible show. Everything was perfect and just the opposite of the Jerry Jeff Walker concert. Nobody knew the Fleetwood Mac album was going to do as well as it did. It was one of their first gigs with Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks.”    Continue To Full Article

The Ellen DeGeneres Show January 13, 2011. That's in ONE WEEK!

Listed as being on the show: Comic Ricky Gervais; Rod Stewart and Stevie Nicks perform.

Rod Stewart and Stevie Nicks on the same show?... Usually if there's a musical guest, there is one per show as far as I can see... Are they performing together? This is an interesting pairing... What will they sing?

Stevie was last on Ellen back in 2007.

Fleetwood's on Front St. website coming soon - HERE

No specific date yet on when this restaurant will open, but you may recall Mick himself in a recent interview said the process was in the "lawyer" stage, so it sounds like things are just being finalized...  You may also recall back in November Mick appeared in a segment on the Golf Channel "GolfNow Ka'anapali", where Lauren Thompson interviewed Mick on Front Street in Lahaina at The Lahaina Store the former Planet Hollywood Restaurant.  This is the future site of Mick's restaurant... She said in her video diary it would open in the summer of 2011.  You can still catch that bit of footage online in Lauren's video diary.  

In any case, in the on-going evolution of branding Mick Fleetwood, this venture of Micks makes me want to head on over to Maui when it's up and running!!... I think it would be pretty cool to check out...
