DIXIE CHICKS / EAGLES STADIUM TOUR INCLUDES FLEETWOOD MAC

Even though the Eagles/Fleetwood Mac Stadium Tour ended up not happening this time around, the Dixie Chicks brought the band to the masses anyway covering "Landslide" last night (June 8th) during the opening night Eagles/Dixie Chicks show in Toronto at the Rogers Centre. This shouldn't be a surprise considering "Landslide" is their biggest crossover hit from their 2002 release HOME - reaching #2 on Billboards Country singles chart, #1 on the AC chart, #7 on Billboards Hot 100 singles chart and #2 on Billboards Hot AC chart.

Full Review - Toronto Sun

"Landslide" is also included on the newly released "Playlist - The Very Best of Dixie Chicks" released June 1st.

3 shows into their current MOJO Tour - and once again, as was the case on their last tour - Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers are covering Fleetwood Mac's "Oh Well".  The song fits the bluesy theme of MOJO and the setlist on tour leans heavily on tracks from MOJO - with 5 or 6 songs from the album making it into the show. 

If you are interested in hearing the new album, their first in 8 years, being released on June 15th, you can stream the full album at ESPN MUSIC.

GLEAN FROM THIS WHAT YOU WILL... @DaveStewart @RealStevieNicks

A rundown or timeline of twitter Q & A's and postings starting February, 2010 between Dave Stewart and various Stevie Nicks fans with other notable mentions thrown in of their working together.  All of this regarding a project that for all intents and purposes appears to be a Stevie Nicks solo album.

Without official word from either a record company, anyone from the Nicks camp or from Nicks herself this is all we have to go on up to this point.  It looks promising that new music from Nicks is definitely on the way!  Maybe in August she'll throw something out there at one of her shows to either confirm this or totally confuse the situation even further.

This has actually been kind of fun, being led along like this, it's like following bread crumbs!  Gotta hand it to Dave, these past 5 months have definitely been interesting - waiting on the edge for the next minimum 140 character posting on twitter!

I think I've managed to collect all the postings regarding them working together.  Feel free to correct or add to this in the comments section and I'll add it to the timeline.
