I have to say that I just had the best weekend of my entire life! My friends and I flew out of New York on Thursday to Phoenix........ and that is when the adventure began. Arizona is beautiful...I had never been there. We arrived and started counting down the hours 'till the show on Saturday. We met so many Stevie fans the first two days were were there.......STEVIE FANS are the best!!!!!

When the day of the concert arrived I could hardly wait. I had butterflies waiting to be let in. My friends and I were in the second section and took our seats about 8 rows back....very close to the stage. ;-) Suddenly the lights dimmed and the screams began. Stevie's father came out to introduce her, it was so sweet! Then out of the shadows Stevie appeared as the music blared up. She kicked into "Outside the rain" and me and my friends were standing and cheering. She looked amazing!!!! She just radiated this light from the stage and was so energetic. After that she went right into "Dreams". We were so blown away by the amout of energy and excitment she had. I have never seen her that happy and so playful! She was wearing black sneakers with her dress, it was the cutest thing!!! She joked with us and talked so much, it was like an intimate party between 20,000 people. It was incredible! She then sang "Enchanted" and "Gold Dust Woman". She twirled and danced around.

The first guest she introduced was Sheryl Crow. She rocked out with Stevie on "Every Day is a Winding Road". And then performed "My Favorite Mistake" solo, and then "The Difficult Kind" with Stevie. They have great chemistry together, they are like best friends on stage having a blast, and the energy and playfullness just carries out to eveyone in the audience. Stevie was in such great spirits, I can't mention that enough. The whole show was like a celebration.

After the Sheryl set, the drums started up and that can only mean one thing.....the audience went nuts and the music started up for "Stand Back". I swear this song has a life of it's own. Everyone was up on their feet and dancing. Steive appeared in a red shawl, very beautiful and started singing and dancing, and we did the same along with her. She sounded perfect.

After that song, she went into "Leather and Lace" alone on stage. We knew Don Henley was going to be there so we kept looking to see when he would come out, and sure enough, on his part, he appeared and started the harmony with her. I was in tears by this point, I never thought I would ever get to see them do that duet live, it was a great moment for me, and the other fans in the audience. Then Don performed one of my favorite songs of his, "Boys of Summer", in a slow ballad version that made it even more special.

It was then time for the story of a Welsh Witch. The piano started up for the Rhiannon intro and Stevie came out in black and started singing, this got many screams from the crowd, including us. She sounded great and even added that part at the end "Won't you take me with you to the sky-ky dreamer, try hard, you can't leave her!!!"....very full of emotion and very powerful.

It was then time for her third guest, Chris Issac, who came out in a bright red suit with sequins. He was hysterical. Stevie laughed and joked with him begging him not to tell the audience any of her jokes.....it was so funny!!!!

Stevie was laughing and screaming, it was great!!!! Then her and Chris kicked into "It's Late"....we were so surprised!!! There is another song I never thought I would see her perform!! Chris and Stevie sounded great. Chris also sang "Solitary Man" and then kicked into "Feel Like Crying".....after he joked around with the audience asking all the women to scream who were "looking for love" and "felt frisky". That man is such a performer, he was soooo funny. The ultimate showman, and then he kicked into the song and was incredible. I was already blown away by everyone and everything, but the best was yet to come.......never in my wildest dreams could I imagine what would be done next.

The next peformer was Lindsey Buckingham, who Stevie introduced "from the bottom of my heart". He walked out on stage to screams and cheers, (the loudest coming from my section) and walked over to Stevie. She greeted him as he went into a speech. He asked her to stand near him and she went behind him and put her arms around him and started weeping, as he talked about how long they have known each other, how much they have been through together and then he dedicated the next two songs to her. He performed "Big Love" and "Go Insane"!!!!!!!!!! I was going nuts! My biggest regret was always having missed The Dance Tour, I wasn't able to get to the shows, so I never thought I would get to hear him do these songs. He is such a gifted guitarist and performer, I was so happy to hear him perform these songs, it was amazing. Then Stevie joined him for Landslide......again something I never thought I would see done live. It was perfect. Following that, as if it wasn't enough, Lindsey stayed on stage and they did an acoustic version of "Gypsy"!!!!! That is my favorite Stevie song and I had been hoping all weekend that she would perform it, I never thought she would do it with Lindsey!!!!!!!!!!! It was so different, simple and beautiful, it gave me chills!! I love the Lindsey harmony at the end on "Lightening strikes, maybe once, maybe twice."

After that moving set, the lights went wild and Waddy Watchel kicked into the chords of "Edge of Seventeen" with the boldness and sound of thunder......it was wild!!!!!!!! The sound filled the arena and Stevie came out in her white shawl and sang the song with all the power she had. At the end she did the loud scream with the guitar behind her and I got chills. She then did Tom Petty's "I Need To Know" and closed the encore with the always moving "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You", wearing a beautiful sparkling white long shawl. It was perfect. Everyone took a bow at the end and she thanked everyone for coming, and supporting the Heart Institute. She said it meant a lot to her......it meant a lot of all the fans too!!!!!

After the concert, there were shuttles to take the people who bought sponsorship packages to the after party across the street in the Wells Fargo Bank. Being New Yorkers, my friends and I couldn't fathom why anyone would take a shuttle across the street, and so we just walked there. (New Yorkers walk everywhere ;-)

When we got there, we checked in, got our gifts, and then were free to roam around the wonderful displays of food and wine. There seemed to be mountains of different cheeses, fruits and crackers and breads on the tables. Very good! The wine was also delicious, but the BEST PART was meeting and talking to all the Stevie fans. Being online, I talk and write to so many fellow fans and it is wonderful to get to meet them and talk to them in person. Again, Stevie fans are the best, and nicest anywhere!

After a short while, Stevie, Lindsey, Chris, Sheryl and the others came out to the cheers of everyone there. The stood behind the podium and there was press everywhere in front of them. I was able to get on a chair and wave, and take pictures. It was so great to get to close and hear Stevie talk about this, you could tell it meant so much to her. I got great pics, I was about 5 feet away. Again, it was like an intimate party, except we didn't get to talk to them, but it didn't matter.....we had the time of our lives! I can't stress that enough......IT WAS A DREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I will never forget this.....this was honestly the best concert I have ever been to in my entire life. It was well worth the long trip and then some!!!!!!!!!!! I would go to Siberia to see that show again!

Lindsey was sporting a wedding ring on the left hand too. Of course her Dad introduced her. She said her Mom & Dad were there (of course), but she also mentioned her Aunt was also there. Her Aunt also lives in Paradise Valley.

Very good concert, but then does Stevie ever give a bad performace. NOPE!! There was no t-shirts or programs being sold which I thought was a little strange. They could have made even more money. They were giving out roses at the door and they also had buckets of them everywhere around the arena of all different colors. They also gave out little flashlight keychains at the door that said: Wells Fargo Stevie Nicks & Friends Benefit Concert September 23, 2000.

I have all my roses in a vase. I got one of each. It was GREAT!!!!!!!!! I'm sure somebody will go more into detail about the concert. Just wanted to get this out to you all.

All I can say about the concert is WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!! It was just a totally awesome night! My only complaint is that it ended too soon! I could have stayed there all night and listened to Stevie and Friends!! Sheryl Crow, Don Henley, Lindsey Buckingham and Chris Isaak all had the place rocking!!! Stevie, what can I say about Stevie . . . she was, as usual, FANTASTIC!!!!

What a concert . . . what a night!!!! I'd make the trip again tomorrow!!

She was soon joined by Sheryl Crow and let me tell you, Sheryl was there to kick some a**-her voice is a sound to be reckoned with and it was so apparent that she was there to have some fun. She and Stevie sang "You're my Favorite Mistake." They sang "The Difficult Kind" and their rendition of Sheryl's song was poetic justice-a great song sung by two extraordinary voices. Stevie let Sheryl have the stage to herself and then returned. When Stevie started singing "Leather and Lace" Don Henley wasn't on stage but when it came time to sing his part he was there. Stevie stood behind him with her hands on his back and it was touching....good friends after all. Don sang "Boys of Summer" differently than I had ever heard it sung and it was splendid! Don exited the stage shortly after and told the Phoenix crowd that he'd be back in 3 weeks!

Stevie eventually introduced Chris Isaak and he came on stage wearing an outfit Elvis would have been proud of - red suit with glitter galore. I was not a Chris Isaak fan but with this concert I was impressed with his musical ability and his delightful sense of humor. I would probably see him in concert now. He and Stevie sang "It's Late," a song she sang as a little girl with her grandfather. They also sang "Solitary Man," after talking about how they sang it together many years ago at The Tic Tac Club in Fresno. Stevie left the stage and he went into "Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing" (from the Eyes Wide Shut soundtrack). It was erotic and very interesting to watch performed. Sheryl Crow came on stage and crawled slowly up to him, like a cat, and sang a smidgen of the song with him. Like I said before, Sheryl was there to have some fun!

Stevie sang some more and then finally was joined by her soulmate onstage-Lindsey Buckingham. Lindsey spoke before performing and there was a cryptic message in his speech that I would love to know the real meaning! He sang 2 songs, after dedicating them to Stevie, "Big Love," and "Go Insane." Lindsey is a guitarist/artist/singer extraordinaire! He and Stevie sang "Landslide" and it was exhilarating to watch and hear. Then much to my wonder and pleasure, Stevie said that Lindsey had proposed they sing the next song together, I had tears in my eyes as they sang a beautiful acoustic version of "GYPSY." It was my favorite moment in the entire concert. Tears literally were streaming down my cheeks, there are no words to describe the moment.

Near the end of the concert Stevie sang a kick a**, rockin' version of "Edge of Seventeen." The girl can rock and roll! Earlier in the concert lady Stevie did sing Rhiannon after a beautiful, haunting piano intro.

Mindy and Sharon did their usual supreme, fantastic job of back up or "up front" singing as Stevie put it. The whole band is so in sync with the music and interpretation of it. Seeing Waddy onstage was delightful! The audience sang Happy Birthday to the keyboard player!

I have seen Stevie many, many times and she makes sure that each concert has a different interpretation and style and it is pure magic to witness. She closed the show with "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything for You?" and of course talked about the men in her life being poets, priests of nothing and legends. The band and Lindsey, Don, Sheryl, and Chris joined her onstage for bows.

Ok on with the show! Stevie got the crowd all warmed up with a few of her tunes like "Outside the Rain," "Dreams," "Enchanted," "Gold Dust Woman (with the golden shawl, twirls, primal Stevie scream, and all.)" Then it was time for Miss Sheryl Crow to jump up on stage and get things pumping (Not that its already pumped up enough ) She came out wearing black velet (in honor of Stevie I'm sure ) hip hugging pants and black top. They had everyone dancing to "Everyday is a Winding Road." It was great watching them have a blast with this one. Especially with Stevie adding her unique vocals to Sheryl's songs. Then Sheryl alone performed "My Favorite Mistake" which was awesome. After that Stevie came back and they performed the most IN-FREAKIN-CREDIBLE version of Sheryl's "The Difficult Kind." That wasn't always my most favorite Sheryl tune but after hearing their version last night it is now. It was one of those moments where the crowd was in awe. Those two had such beautiful harmonies together. The notes they hit together was just total heaven!! It gave the song a whole new kind of freshness. Wow, wow, and WOW! Now it's time for a few more Stevie tunes! The intro kicked in for the traditional and still one of my favs "Stand back." No black and gold shawl this time but she did wear her red one. Then I think she started to performe "Leather and Lace" where of course Don Henley came out to the roaring crowd to sing his part of the sweet duet. This was a great one to see and hear again since the last time they performed it here a couple years back. Of course this time I had a much better seat and they didn't look like little dots! LOL Don sang his part and Stevie most adoringly stood behind him. Very cute. ;) After that Don did a mellower version of "Boys of Summer" which the crowd sang along too. Everyone would have loved to hear a few more solo tunes but then that was that for Mr Henley. Stevie thanked him, he said "See you in three weeks" and he was off. It was a small appearance but a memorible one. Ok now I'm not sure if this is when Stevie performed Rhiannon or not. You would think this darn Ginkoba work a little faster for me! UGH! Well I think was either before or after Chris Issac walked out on stage. NO wait! Ok I think this is when she introduced us to her band. There were a couple new faces and some very familar faces to us Stevie fans. That night it was the Brett's (the Keyboard player) birthday. So Stevie got the whole crowd to sing Happy Birthday to him. Ya happy "25th" Brad! When she introduced her bass player Don she had a tiny story to tell It was about how she was in a club and she was crossing the stage or something. She tripped but low and behold he caught her right in time. All I can say is GOD BLESS THAT MAN!! Anyway now onto to most colorful guest of the night. From were I was sitting I could see the all the guest stars waiting from the side of the stage. Chris Issac stood out very nicely in his red hot 50's style suit with blue and green rhinestone flowers going up and down the side. He came out and he and Stevie sang "Its Late" in honor of her grandpa. It was a really nice surprise to hear a song like that thats never performed too often. I sure do hope those two record that song together sometime in our lifetime!! It would be a shame if they didn't. They sang another song together but yet again the Ginkoba is blocking the title from my head. But I do remember Chris making up this cute story about how he and Stevie sang this song back in 73. Yeah Right! "She wasn't known as Stevie just yet. She was known as Happy! And I was known as Gail (I think thats what he said) but thats a long story." Anyway Stevie and Chris wear being so playful and flirty with each other. Stevie kept taking the chiffon from her sleeves and covering it over her face and teasing him. Stevie was also telling him off about not telling some of those dirty jokes and stories. " THIS IS MY SHOW AND YOU CAN'T DO THAT!! Hey you go girl. and of course whatever Stevie says GOES. ;) But Chris did slip in a few colorful comments here and there. He said Stevie told him to cool down the filth cuz her mom and dad were there. "But I'll slip in a little filth for the people in cheap seats tonight!" And that he did. At least during most of "Baby Did A Bad Bad thing." In the middle of the song he did this whole little speech about the people in the front row. Something about them going home to their trailer homes and waterbeds and something abouting grilling the skillet which he said he had no idea about but it was pretty nasty. Uhhh Chris I thing baby is telling a big big lie with that one! ;) But pure Chris Issac through and through! Then to my surprise Sheryl Crow popped back up onstage and started singing along a tiny bit and dancing kind of sexy in the background. One of my favorite Sheryl moments is when she stood back to let Chris is the rest of song but then got on her hands and knees and start crawling her way up to him. YOOWSA!!! Before the song end those two hit one hell of a high note together. I know becuase my ears are still ringing from it! After that Sheryl started to make her exit again and I thought I saw her pinch Waddy Wachtel's butt. :-o Chris can bring the beast out of anyone I guess. He sure did with the crowd. He sure did with me! Definitly a few more fans for Chris. Now for the creme de la creme of Stevie songs. Rhiannon. Theres not much I can say cuz I am out into orbit when Stevie performs this one. Just like a dream. One of my favorite moments is when she was under a single spotlight and she was just twirling and twirling and twirling. A classic Stevie moment. Then came the moment and the man many people wanted to see. The (in my opinion) all time and uncredited great guitar genius Mr. Lindsey Buckingham. It was extremly cool to see this guy again since the Mac reuion tour. I guess it was also cool to see him in the same outfit that he wore tour too! Black jacket, pants, and untucked button down shirt. Always giving Johnny Cash a run for his money! Anyway he came out and greeted Stevie very sweetly and doing something that is always very Lindsey.......give a speech with big earthy words! Heehee Well it was a very sweet speech. He was talking about (with Stevie hugging him from behind) how important and a special place Arizona was to him and too Stevie. When he was a kid his family would take vactions here and later on he and Stevie would visit her parents often. Then he ended the speech with how wonderful to see both of them back in Arizona today and that the next two songs were dedicated to Stevie. She was moved to tears with this one. They embraced and he kissed her on the hand as she walked off stage and wipping the tears from her eyes. Awwwwwwwwwww! I can't tell you enough how great it is to see these two as good friends again. I don't care what anyone says a bond like that is unbreakable. Anyway Lindsey proceeded to perform his two INCREDIBLE acoustic solo numbers. I tell you when you hear Lindsey perform his "plugged" songs acousticly it is up there as one of the most spiritual (next to Stevie of course) experances. For me it is anyway. When he was finished up with that Stevie returned for their (I know its Stevie's song but it always feels like a Buckingham/Nicks thing for me) signature song (and a song I am FOREVER learning how to play on guitar) "Landslide" She dedicated this song to her mommy, daddy, her Aunt, and Lindsey's brother. Again back in that dream like state of mind. Just can't describe it except to say its one of the most moving songs in Rock and Roll. Then came a big surprise for the night. I though that was it for Lindsey but NO! He grabs another guitar and Carlos and Waddy (I have to say to pretty cool to see him perform with Stevie again) joins them up on stage. All of them together did a fabulous three guitar acoustic version of "Gypsy." Just watching all those guys go at it with their guitars all at the same time and all in one line was absolutly AMAZING. Imagine that was like three "generations" of guitarists that Stevie has had the honor of playing with in the past 30 years. And them having the honor of working with Stevie ;) I have to say that was my favorite FAVORITE moment of the whole show. Again wow, wow, and WOW. I didn't want it to end but unfortunaly all good things have to end. But the show didn't end just yet! Stevie a few more Signature Stevie to get into our systems. Of course one of the major closing songs of night which no Stevie show can be without...... Edge of Seventeen. Everyone was on their feet, clapping, singing, throwing their arms in the air to this classic. Unfortunatly because of where I was sitting I wasn't be able to get to the front of the stage. I figured that anyway. It's not meant to be I guess. :( Oh well what can ya do. She still touched me. :) That song had everyone up for the remaining of the show which included two more classics such as Tom Petty's "I Need To Know." Stevie in coat tails and all! Now for the very last song of the show and of the night. "Has Anyone Every Written Anything For You." A song very very special to me as for others I'm sure. Mainly its special to me because it reminds me of a day that a good friend passed away a few years and that was the first song I listened to that dark day. While listening to Stevie sing that song and thinking of that day I just couldn't help but start crying. What also made this moment special was this young lady sitting next to me and who I got to know during the night. She saw me crying and simple took my hand and held it tightly. That right there, to me, sums up why I think Stevie Nicks fans are the GREATEST fans on God's green earth. Sometimes without really knowing one another very well they all know exactly what your feeling. No matter how different we are we have this common ground that is Stevie Nicks and her everlasting music. LIVE ON AND ROCK ON FOREVER MY SISTERS (and brothers) OF THE MOON!! Then it was offical. The show was ending. Stevie and her friends (Sheryl Crow also wipping tears away) all came out together and took their bows. The end. :( So I guess I should start to end it here. I know this was a long a dragged on review but this is the best way Shayne Annan can tell you how she was feeling that night. Total inspiration and rebirth. As I always bring up no matter how stressed my life gets its always wonderful that someone can give you 2 or 3 hours of pure bliss and that stress is just a figment of my imagination. Thank you Sheryl Crow. Thank you Don Henley. Thank you Chris Issac. Thank you Lindsey Buckingham. Last but certianly not least, with all my heart, Thank you Miss Stevie Lynn Nicks. You gave me the most amazing night of my life and you did it all for an excellent cause. Your big heart is now going to be a part of others that seek help from the Arizona Heart Institute. "I want you to remember me" you say? Stevie how on EARTH can you expect us to EVER forget you!?!??!?! We love you always and foever. :)

She looked and sounded better than ever. When they did the acoustic version of Gypsy, i was totally blown by the suprise. All the guest were great especially Lindsay Buckingham. Big Love is a acoustic materpiece.

I took my cousin who said that it was the best concert he has ever seen.

Stevie, thanks again for a great night and we shall see you on the Trouble In Shang-ri-la tour !!!!!!!!

Sheryl Crow, who hosted Nicks at the Sheryl Crow and Friends concert in Central Park, New York in September 1999, sang three of her songs, as Nicks sang backup on "Everyday is a Winding Road" and "The Difficult Kind" and left the stage for Crow to have the spotlight on "My Favorite Mistake."

Nicks' departure to allow Crow to have the spotlight to herself was one feature of the show, and it gave the performance more of a sense of a collaboration rather than people sharing the stage with Nicks. Nicks also sang lead on only three songs while one of the guests was on stage, dueting with Don Henley on the 1981 classic "Leather and Lace," and having former lover and longtime Fleetwood Mac bandmate Lindsey Buckingham play guitar for "Landslide."

However, the third Nicks song was the highlight of the show, even surpassing Nicks' defiant "Stand Back." Buckingham was joined on stage by Nicks' lead guitarist Waddy Wachtel and rhythm guitarist Carlos Rios as Nicks surprised many in the crowd with an accoustic version of "Gypsy."

Another highlight of the show was recent addition Chris Isaak, who joked with the crowd - and Nicks - during his three songs. He teamed with Nicks on "It's Late," which appeared on Nicks' boxed set Enchanted and on "Solitary Man," then Nicks left the stage for Isaak to sing "Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing," during which Crow added backing vocals and crawled up behind Isaak while he was playing with the crowd.

Even though having guests on the show provided many of the highlights, Nicks also shone when she had the stage to herself, particularly when she held long notes during her second encore, "Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You," her screams during "Edge of Seventeen" and her high leg kick toward the end of "Stand Back."

Even though Nicks celebrated her 52nd birthday May 26, she showed a lot of energy, adding fast twirls during the musical bridge in "Rhiannon."

Many Nicks fanatics, many of whom wore Nicks styled dresses and shawls, called the show "awesome" and on a once-in-a-lifetime night in the desert, I'd have to agree.

After 20 minutes delay, the lights went down and band members took to the stage. The audience went nuts. I thought it was absolutely terrific that Stevie's dad came to the stage to introduce his daughter. About 15 seconds later, she appeared down stage right waving and smiling really big. It was hilarious when she went to the microphone to sing the words but was at the wrong mic! Stevie looked at Sharon and Mindy really rather puzzled and they pointed that she should go to *her* mic, the one decorated with the pretty tassles. Stevie obviously didn't notice that, but she picked right up where the audience handed Outside the Rain back to her and the fun began.

After a four song flash back to the Enchanted Tour 1998, Stevie brought Sheryl Crow on stage for her/their numbers, which were absolutely fantastic...but what happened to "If You Ever Did Believe?"

Following that segment, my favorite song began, Stand Back, but Stevie came out in a red shawl laced with the stars/dots what ever they are instead of the black one. The keyboards were missing from the beginning, but nonetheless, the song rocked the house and everyone in my section was gettin' down to it.

After that came Don Henley to the stage to sing Leather and Lace and then Boys of Summer. Henley left the stage which a lot of people afterwards complained about, but I believe he didn't do too many numbers in order to draw a crowd to his own concert in Arizona in the next few weeks.

Following a piano introduction, Stevie and her good friend Rhiannon rocked the house. Chris Isaak then came to the stage and I was surprised that they had such a past together. When he was announced I was like "what's he doing there?" but obviously the two of them are good friends and Chris Isaak was definitely as good as the rest of them.

Stevie introduced Lindsay Buckingham right afterwards and you could tell that she had waited all night long to bring him to the stage. Following a three song excerpt from The Dance Tour, I was expecting either "Crystal" or "Twisted" to come when he and the other guitarists started to play, but instead "Gypsy" came! That was a totally *SWEET* acoustic rendition! Everyone loved it.

All left the stage for the percussionists solos to bring on "Edge of Seventeen". Stevie absolutely ROCKED during that number, so did the band, and so did the audience. Where I was sitting was nothing less than an Ozz-fest like "mini riot"...everyone was jumping, dancing, head banging, and having a good time. It was breathtaking. Stevie finished the shows with "I Need To Know" and "HAEWAFY". Everyone came out for their bows and the audience cheered for more, but unfortunately none came.

It was GREAT to see Stevie so moving, so smiling, so alive, and so vibrant and so energetic! I think this next concert tour of hers will definitely be a must see and following Saturday's concert, she proved that she will continue to be a center piece in the history of female musicians.

It was well worth the entire trip and I'd do it again in a heart beat.

She introduced her first guest as saying that she and Sheryl Crow co-produced her upcoming CD and that she has become a very good friend. Sheryl came out and they did Everyday Is A Winding Road. It was really cool to see Stevie sing back-up to someone else's song. Stevie left the stage after that and left Sheryl there to do My Favorite Mistake. Stevie came back out and the two did another Sheryl song called The Difficult Kind, definitely a highlight of the evening. They harmonized very well in this song. It was very beautiful. Stevie next thanks Sheryl for helping out and goes into Stand Back.

Right after she sings that song, the opening chords of Leather and Lace start to play. Stevie sings her part and then Don Henley came out. The crowd was going crazy all night and everyone was really into it. After they sang that, Stevie left Don there to sing a really cool version of Boys of Summer. Next, Stevie comes back out and thanks Don for helping out and the music starts playing for Rhiannon. Stevie comes onto the stage again wearing her Rhiannon outfit. That song was definitely the most hypnotizing version I have ever heard. Stevie was really into this song and it was great!

So, Stevie now has to introduce Chris Isaak. It was really cool because he came out wearing a red outfit. He looked great and he joked around at how Stevie told him to clean up his act tonight because her parents were there. So he said that he wouldn't be too filthy and said that the heart was his second favorite organ!!! Of course, everyone including Stevie cracked up. The first song that they did together was a song that Stevie used to sing with her grandfather. It was called It's Late and can be found on her box set. It was a really cool version. Next came Solitary Man. They also sounded great on that. Stevie was very playful and flirty with almost all of her guests. Stevie then left Chris to do a song by himself. I don't know the name of it, but it is from the soundtrack to Eyes Wide Shut.

Somewhere in between her guests, I forget where, she introduces her band. It is Brett Tuggle's (keyboardist) birthday and she lets everyone sing Happy Birthday to him. She also tells everyone when she is introducing Don Boyette (bass player) that he saved her life the other day. It seems that they were doing a private show and she was walking across the stage and tripped over the bass player amp. It was lucky that Don was there to catch her just in time or she would have fell off the stage and got seriously hurt. So, I am guessing this is why she was wearing her platform black sneakers instead of her trademark platform boots. She also told a story when she introduced her musical director, Carlos Rios. It seems that his father had to have heart surgery and Carlos was very worried and hoped that everything would be okay. Stevie told him that everything would be fine because there are great heart doctors and the AHI is researching everyday to make people better. She then said that everything did turn out great and his father was in the audience that night. What a great ending to a story!

Finally, the moment that I have been waiting for. Stevie is on stage and doesn't really know what to say to introduce this last guest. So she just says Lindsey Buckingham. The crowd freaked out! It was so incredible to see Stevie and Lindsey on the same stage holding hands and talking to each other. You could really see the love that is still there between them. So, Stevie is about to leave the stage, when Lindsey grabs her and tells her not to leave just yet. He precedes to tell the crowd how when he and Stevie were dating they would come to Arizona to visit her parents and when he was a little boy, his family would take him and his brothers to Arizona for vacations. He then said something to the effect that with all the ups and downs and all the good times and the bad times that he and Stevie shared, it was really great that they were both here in Arizona doing this tonight. Lindsey dedicated the next two songs that he would sing to Stevie and I think his speech really touched her because she walked off the stage wiping the tears from her eyes. What an incredible moment!!! All the while during his speech, Stevie had stood behind him with her arms around his waist and it was so great to see how far the two of them had really come.

Lindsey started with Big Love and then went into Go Insane. I have never really seen Lindsey in concert before, so this was definitely one of the best moments of my life. He was awesome, incredible and amazing. He looked great! Stevie then came back out onto the stage and before she started singing, she dedicated Landslide to Lindsey's brother, Jeff, her parents and her aunt. I never thought that I would ever see Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham perform together again in cocert in my lifetime. They are truly two legends and performed Landslide so greatly. Next, Carlos Rios (guitarist) and Waddy Wachtel (guitarist) join Stevie and Lindsey on stage and Stevie said that they haven't really done this song in a long time and Lindsey actually suggested that they do it tonight for the show. The guys started playing the guitars and that is when I realized that it was Gypsy. This is my absolute favorite Stevie song and I never thought that I would ever see her perform this song again. It was a very welcome surprise and it sounded amazing with nothing else but guitars and Stevie.

So, after all that incredible stuff, Stevie comes out and does Edge of Seventeen. Great version!! Finally, her two encores, I Need To Know and Has Anyone Ever Written Anything For You. It was a perfect ending to a perfect concert in a perfect setting, Arizona. She thanked all of her guests and then thanked everyone for coming out to support the Arizona Heart Institute and said she was really touched that we were all there.

I will never forget this show!!!

It was amazing how many people were dressed in Stevie like dresses, shawls and boots. She really inspires people in a way you don't see very often. I have never seen Stevie so happy and talkative during a performance, it was really a treat. I've read that people in the industry are predicting that after the release of her new album, Stevie will finally be recognized as the legend that she is. This performance certainly shows that. This woman can still ROCK, after all of these years.

I went to the party afterwards at Wells Fargo- security was very tight. Stevie looked gorgeous as she accepted her gift from the AZ Heart Institute and she sat on that motorcycle that was raffled off. I was about 20 feet away. What I found so special is the love that Stevie has for her lovely parents- she is definitely "daddy's girl" She and her dad were embracing and she was whispering in his ear- they both laughed.

It was a night to remember and I look forward to the next tour! Aloha from Hawaii.
