Stevie and Lindsey talk about the upcoming Fleetwood Mac Unleashed Hits Tour.
Stevie and Lindsey were featured on Access Hollywood and Entertainment Tonight.
In the ET interview, they shared specific details about the upcoming Fleetwood Mac Unleashed Hits Tour, revealing that they will be looking at their vast catalog of hits in developing a set list. In the Access Hollywood interview, Stevie revisits the infamous Buckingham Nicks album cover.
Stevie's songs Gypsy, Rhiannon, and Stand Back have been referenced in the December 2008/January 2009 issue of Blender in the feature 1001 Greatest Songs to Download Right Now!
The feature includes lists chosen by many popular artists, including Chris Brown, Fall Out Boy, Adam Levine, Jason Mraz, and Taylor Swift. Stevie is mentioned in lists submitted by American rapper and OutKast member Antwan André Patton, also known as Big Boi (“Gypsy”), and Welsh singer-songwriter Duffy (“Rhiannon”).
Stevie also ranks at #6 (“Stand Back”) on Blender’s list of The Loudest Drums of All Time.
Stevie has ranked at #98 on Rolling Stone's list of the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time (RS 1066, November 27, 2008).
Sheryl Crow calls Stevie Nicks' voice a "combination of sheer vulnerability and power," and Courtney Love swoons over "that ridiculous beautiful tone." Nicks' strong, deceptively versatile voice — by turns husky, warm, velvety and childlike — has provided the color and texture for songs ranging from smooth and mysterious Fleetwood Mac hits such as "Rhiannon" and "Dreams" to solo rockers like "Stand Back." "She's so tiny, and this big, deep voice comes rattling out, and I think that's very sexy," said Debbie Harry of Blondie. Nicks has influenced and mentored a wide generation of younger female singers, from the country of the Dixie Chicks to the sweet pop of Vanessa Carlton. "Her voice soothes me," says Love, "gives me something to aspire to and leaves me feeling courageous."

Watch a short clip of "Gold Dust Woman" from Saturday night's show at the Sound Board in Detroit. (Shel)
On Saturday, Stevie performed in concert at the Sound Board in Detroit, MotorCity's Casino Hotel's new music venue.
There was one unusual moment during the show when a zealous fan unexpectedly jumped onto the stage while Stevie performed "Fall from Grace." The fan kissed Stevie on the cheek before one of Stevie's crew members escorted the fan off the stage. Stevie continued to perform without mentioning the incident.
