The new film, Stevie Nicks: 24 Karat Gold – The Concert, will play for two nights only on October 21st and 25th at select cinemas, drive-ins and exhibition spaces, around the world, Nicks said in a statement announcing the event: "The 24 Karat Gold Tour was my all-time favorite tour.

Stevie Nicks believes the art of songwriting is an act of healing for both the creator and the listener: ["To me, the music is writing songs and that is to be able to write something that maybe at a time in somebody else's life, they need a little help or a little inspiration, or something, that they would sit down and listen to something I wrote and it would just either make them feel a little better or they'd be able to go 'Somebody else's been there, too — and that helps me.'"] SOUNDCUE (:18 OC: . . . that helps me)
Back in 1983, only two years into her solo career, Stevie Nicks explained that fronting and leading her own band was hardly a walk in the park compared to the cushy existence she and her bandmates enjoyed in Fleetwood Mac: ["I don't feel like a princess anymore. I feel like a hard working princess, because I am called upon now to do a lot more that I never really thought I wanted to do. I never really wanted to be a solo artist. I never wanted to go up there and stand and sing 20 songs alone. I loved being in Fleetwood Mac, because it was a band."] SOUNDCUE (:19 OC: . . . was a band)
