Fleetwood Mac frontwoman Stevie Nicks has hinted that she is considering embarking on a solo tour after Fleetwood Mac’s 2013 shows.

Apparently her friend Dave Stewart has been trying to get her to embrace the idea of a solo show, supposedly involving massive video screens telling the story of her life.

Recent documentary In Your Dreams examines the working relationship between Stewart and Nicks, among other things.

After a screening of the film Nicks told a movie theatre full of fans: “He [Stewart] wants me to have video screens, like a big room of video screens where it’s all my life (up there). And I (said): ‘Dave, I’m not Barbra Streisand’. But maybe. Maybe someday,” The Province reports.

She also noted that her live shows were a far cry from the hit-packed Fleetwood Mac shows.

“It’s very different. Fleetwood Mac’s much more sophisticated and grown up and my show is just like a big slumber party in an auditorium. And I tell everybody the meanings of all these songs. Because that’s how I draw people in.”

Nicks also conceded that the promotion of her last album was a gruelling ordeal.

“I didn’t sell a lot of records. For me, for a big act like moi, it didn’t. Worldwide I probably sold 300,000. It’s awesome if you’re an unknown artist and you have a hit single but it’s not really that awesome if you’re Stevie Nicks.”

Fleetwood Mac are currently in the middle of their world tour which reaches the UK in the autumn. Tickets are on sale now. For more information, visit Gigwise Gig Tickets.
