So to celebrate the 30th anniversary of our first date my husband got tickets for Rod Stewart/Stevie Nicks at Madison Square Garden for last nite. I am so not a Stevie Nicks fan but if Rod is just going to sing the phone book I'm there, so off we went.

Stevie is still in her hippie dippie trippie sixties personna and she just annoys. Always has, always will. The only relic from the 60s/early70s I want to see is Jim Morrison and he's no longer around. She did a fair amount of Fleetwood Mac which was OK, and she did some of her new music. Not a fan.

Then came the man himself. For a man in his mid 60s he looked good, but his voice sounded husky and he seemed to have a bit of trouble hitting a few notes. Did I care? Not in the least. He did about an hour and a half and covered all hit hits. Had a lot of energy. Came back for one measly encore. We had seats on the floor that were pretty good, I was dancing thru most of the show. The crowd was in a great mood and everybody seemed to have a wonderful time.
 
Oh, Im jealous!!! I really wanted to go to that concert, but never bought the tickets. And I'm the opposite of you in that I LOVE Stevie Nicks, but find Rod to be annoying. Oh well- different strokes for different folks!!! Glad you had a great time!!!
 
I'm going to see Rod in June! Its a family outing- me, DH, Mum, brother and sister in law! We all went to see Fleetwood Mac about 18 months ago too. Im not a big Rod fan (he seems a bit sleazy to me) but my mum loves him. I love Stevie Nicks though. Everywhere is one of my favourite songs ever. We had it played at our wedding!!!
 
i would love to see Rod Stewart and Fleetwood Mac. 70's music is the best ever... :appl:
 
One of the advantages of living in LA is that you get to see celebrities in all kinds of random places -- like at church!

A few years back, we went to our normal church for Easter services, and we also had a friend in from town and invited her to join us. It was especially crowded, and we squished in to let a couple with a young child into our pew. My friend leaned over and whispered [loudly!] "Is THAT ROD STEWART??" He was there with probably his 7th wife, a beautiful tall blonde woman who had to be at least 20 years his junior =)
