She did it!!  Stevie Nicks performed "New Orleans" live for the first time EVER! 

Stevie joined Glady's Knight and Melissa Etheridge in New Orleans last night at the AARP Life@50 event closing out the three day national conference with a live show at the New Orleans Arena.  Each played for an hour... Melissa first, Glady's second and Stevie closed the show... Unsure of Stevie's full setlist - it was likely abbreviated given she only played an hour. Mike Valentino and Beth Gallups were there... Below are their tweets to Stevie performing "New Orleans".

I think it's awesome that Stevie sang New Orleans... It's perfect for the city, a great tune and it had to be sung! Who knows when her next opportunity will be.


Thanks to an Anonymous comment we know have last nights setlist!

 1) Rock and Roll
 2) Rhiannon

Glass Tiger Album "Then, Now, Next" Features Mick Fleetwood on Beatles Cover

Glass Tiger "Then, Now, Next" Features Mick Fleetwood playing drums on the Beatles cover song "You've Got To Hide Your Love Away.

Remember Glass Tiger?  They were one of the bigger Canadian bands of the 1980's with a slew of hits in Canada including the US Top 10 hits "Don’t Forget Me (When I’m Gone)" and "Someday".  Well they're back.. Sort of.

They just finished a Canada tour opening for Roxette this month and in late August released "Then, Now, Next" which is kind of a best of set that includes 4 new songs one of them being the Beatles cover of "You've Got To Hide Your Love Away" which features Mick Fleetwood on drums.  Here's what keyboardist/songwriter Sam Reid had to say about the song and Micks involvement.

All members of the band are big Beatles fans, so when the group was looking for another song to add to the package, Reid reminded singer Alan Frew of an earlier recording of the classic "You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away".

“That track goes back to when Frew was working on his solo album 1994 album "Hold On". He was dabbling with that song back then. And we actually had it, and for some reason it never got released. But people should know that that’s Mick Fleetwood (of the legendary band Fleetwood Mac) playing drums on that,” he said.

“When we were looking for songs to put on this compilation, I told Alan I always love his version of that song, that we should put it out. So we played it for the rest of the band, and we fixed it up a little bit here and there. But I loved Mick Fleetwood’s playing on it. It’s very Ringo-like.”

Rumour has it Nicks might be bringing some television cameras to her show in St. Pete, supposedly to capture material for an upcoming project involving Oprah Winfrey’s OWN network.

Tampabay.com

Exciting!!  A number of months back Sheri Salata, President of OWN, mentioned on Twitter there was a possibility of Stevie taking part in the Master Class series on OWN... If the rumour is true, looks like it's inching one step closer!

Still a few tickets left for Stevie's show in St. Pete... Get them at Mahaffey Theater here!

Re/Max Official Announcement: STEVIE NICKS to Perform at Vegas Convention February, 2013

Re/Max made the announcement today that Stevie Nicks will be the featured artist to play the Re/Max convention set for February 28, 2013 in Las Vegas at the MGM Arena.  I'm speculating that given this is a one off performance, it's not likely to interfere with anything Fleetwood Mac!

OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: The featured artist at the 40th Anniversary RE/MAX R4 Party with a Purpose, February 28th, 2013 at the MGM Arena in Las Vegas is STEVIE NICKS!
