    Stevie Nicks pulls out of festival shows due to rising COVID cases

    Stevie Nicks has pulled out of her five festival shows scheduled for the fall, citing concern for rising COVID-19 cases. “I want everyone to be safe and healthy and the rising Covid cases should be of concern to all of us,” Stevie wrote in a statement. “For that reason, I have decided to skip the 5 performances I had planned for 2021.” Stevie broke the news to fans on her Facebook page and other social media Tuesday afternoon.

    At 73, Stevie has sensibly prioritized health and wellness in order to keep performing. “Because singing and performing have been my whole life, my primary goal is to keep healthy so I can continue singing for the next decade or longer.” No one would argument that!

    Stevie is fully vaccinated!

    Stevie Nicks is fully vaccinated! On Monday, Stevie did her part to encourage others to get the COVID-19 vaccination by sharing that she was “proud to be part of 29% of fully-vaccinated Americans!” She has also been responsibly wearing her mask when out and about for essential tasks, like getting an eye exam back in July 2020.

    The objective of all this is “herd immunity” against the COVID-19 coronavirus, which is reached when enough people in the population have recovered from a disease and have developed protective antibodies against future infection, according to the Mayo Clinic.

    Basically, that means life can start to return to normal, and we can resume fun activities, like going to a Stevie Nicks concert! So follow Stevie’s lead and get fully vaccinated!

     

    Proud to be a part of the 29% of fully-vaccinated Americans!

  • ‘This is a real American Horror Story, getting worse every day’

    ‘This is a real American Horror Story, getting worse every day’

    In a powerful journal entry, Stevie Nicks begs everyone to fight COVID-19 by wearing face masks. 

    On Tuesday, Stevie Nicks pleaded for everyone to wear face masks to protect themselves and others against COVID-19 infections. Stevie shared her most personal journal entry to date, describing the spike in cases as “a real American Horror Story.” “If I get it,” she wrote, “I will probably never sing again. Put me on a ventilator and I will be hoarse for the rest of my life. I don’t have much time. I am 72 years old.”

    Stevie has endured asthma for most of her life, forcing her to cancel performances in the past. Last year, she battled influenza and pneumonia, resulting in her hospitalization and Fleetwood Mac subsequently postponing shows. She fully recovered, but her warnings are unsurprising given these underlining respiratory conditions.

    So the message is clear… Help Keep Stevie Safe!

    Read Stevie’s full journal entry below:

    August 10th, 2020
    Journal Entry

    We still have our freedom~
    But we don’t have much time~

    On July 29th, 2020 when I posted my journal entry about wearing masks, there were 141,430 deaths from COVID 19 in the United States.

    Today, August 10th, 2020 there are 163,465 deaths from COVID 19 in the United States.

    22,035 people have died in 13 days….

    A lot of people still aren’t taking the wearing of a simple mask seriously~ or, just trying to be aware of how close you are to others. The masks and the distancing have now become a political statement. It is not political. It is a silent killer hiding in the shadows. It is stalking you. It doesn’t care who you are…It’s just looking for a victim.

    And you don’t have much time…

    Are you aware, everyone, that if you survive this virus~ you will be fighting the after effects for the rest of your life. Micro-blood clots~ in all your organs; in your brain~ neurological problems ; a cough that rips your throat apart and keeps coming back.

    If I get it, I will probably never sing again. Put me on a ventilator and I will be hoarse for the rest of my life~ I don’t have much time… I am 72 years old….

    Everyone gathering at the beaches ~ in the bars~ block parties ~ etcetera ~ Let’s get drunk and make out and by the way “Can I have the other half of your drink?”~ We are heading for a crash; People are dying because people aren’t wearing their masks.

    This is like the season of American Horror Story I was in. It had turned into an apocalypse above ground. A serious “shelter in place.” And unless you were a famous witch or a wealthy warlock or just a very rich person you did not get into one of the underground bunkers~ But if you did get in, you arrived in a beautifully tattered black Victorian carriage drawn by two noble, monstrous but dying ~ black horses. It was just a great story, but I felt the gravity of it even then… You did not want to leave that safe house because only death awaited you above ground. When those characters ventured out for just a moment~ They wore their hazmat suits and black gas masks~ no questions asked. I found it terrifying. It was the end of the world ~
    What’s going on in our country now, is a real “American Horror Story.” Nobody is leading us. Nobody has a plan. Unless people change their attitude from – “Oh this is such a bummer to stay in and wear a mask and follow the rules, and not party” ~ We will never get ahead of this virus.

    This virus can kill you. It can kill me. Kill my chances of pulling on those boots and hitting the road~ Kill the chances that any of us in the music community will ever get back to the stage, because we would never put you in danger~ never take you and your life for granted. Never put your family members who are older and more fragile in danger. You should feel the same. You take deadly chances because you think you’re immortal. You’re not. If you get this virus, your life will be forever changed. Your beauty will be stolen from you. You will age as you fight for your life. You will age as you fight your way back…if you survive.

    163,465 people have died… It’s getting worse every day

    Call it Armageddon
    Call it a Pandemic
    Call it the Apocalypse…

    This is a real American Horror Story~

    It is not a mini-series ~

    It is a tragedy~

  • Stevie urges ‘spiritual warriors’ to fight virus by wearing masks

    Stevie urges ‘spiritual warriors’ to fight virus by wearing masks

    Stevie Nicks has shared a journal entry from July 17, 2020. In the entry, she asks her fans to “change into spiritual warriors” and “make it our mission to fight this virus” by wearing a mask as much as possible. Stevie’s comments echo the CDC’s recommendation for Americans to wear masks to prevent COVID-19 spread.

    Here’s the text of Stevie’s journal entry:

    July 17, 2020
    Journal Entry

    It is 6:50am~ I am still awake listening to Pandora~ My stomach ache is gone, and I am just happy to be awake, immersed in music~ feeling slightly euphoric and inspired to be alive and still be able to feel young and safe here in – “My House, it’s a very, very, very fine house.” Right here in this moment, I feel hope. I feel happy. I feel safe. Tomorrow when I wake in the afternoon, the news will negate all this goodness until tomorrow night, late when I come back to this place where everything is possible.

    If everyone could just wear a mask and stay in as much as possible~ you might be able to find this magical place I have found, in the early morning when everyone sleeps~

    And when you wake up, make it your mission to do all that you can to stop the virus before someone you know falls really ill. Because then, you will be too late. Your life will be forever changed.

    In order for us all to get back to our former lives – we must all change into spiritual warriors- we must make it our mission to fight this virus; otherwise there is nothing left~ If we don’t get ahead of this now – we will live with such guilt and regret that it will destroy us. You can’t go back. You can’t push rewind. I want to go back on the road. I want to sing for you again. I want to put on those high black suede platform boots and dance for you again. I want you to forget the world and sing with me.

    Please don’t throw this world away. Please don’t give up on humanity and let this virus win this war. It’s up to us now ~ because nobody is helping us. Nobody is coming to our rescue.
    No one ~

    I may have my freedom~
    But I don’t have a lot of time…
    (Wild Horses, The Rolling Stones)
