Night of a Thousand Stevies 15
Price: $15.00
Date: Fri, May 06
Start Time: 9:00 PM



Night of a Thousand Stevies is probably the best-known Stevie Nicks fan event in the world, a riot of shawls, lace, baby's breath, twirling, tambourines and great performance. This event began at JACKIE 60 fifteen years ago with four performers, and has grown into a true spectacle, featuring countless interpretations over a marathon night. As always, this Enchanted evening will climax in a twirl of shawls and tambourines with the Battle of a Thousand Stevies near morning. (source:http://www.mothernyc.com/stevie)

hope to see you there, nick715! if you do go, be sure to get there before the first set starts (10:30)...you don't wanna miss purplegypsy perform "sara"!

I'm so excited! You won't be disappointed! this is the 5th year sassyb and I are going together and it's so cool to be around other stevie nicks fans who appreciate her music the way we do!

I'll be on around 10:30 or so doing one song so I hope you can make it! (Did I mention I'm soo nervous?!)

I think I will head down there between 9:30 and 10:00.

My friend Rob is coming too, he also loves Stevie and never went before.

that's ok - she's good friends with chi chi valenti who is one of the NOTS founders...she'll probably be back next year....i wouldn't mind doing a night of a 1000 debbies....i'd sing "In the Flesh" or "atomic"

purplegypsy was on fire! i can't believe its already been a week...time flies! i've watched the video clips we took and it really was a great performance..."total stevie realness."

i think the best thing about it was that some girls to the right of me got all sorts of excited when the host/ess, hattie, came on to introduce purplegypsy. hattie said something about welcoming a returning gypsy and when she said "purple gypsy" this girl got vry excited and yelled "oh my god, purple gypsy!" apparantly, purplegypsy was remembered from the previous year. not surprising, considering it was one of the best performances of that year also! it was also way cool to see all the queens in the audience singine backup for the song, lol! there was a whole section of the audience that was SO into it!

thanks, purplegypsy, for a great night and an even better performance. the cd will be in the mail tomorrow!
