Stevie Nicks had to scrap plans for another tour this year with Billy Joel because of his illness. Now she has to postpone her own solo tour, including an Aug. 19 show in St. Paul, because of a fractured shoulder.
The concert has been postponed until Nov. 12. She plans to return to the road on Oct. 1 in Portland, as previously scheduled. Meanwhile, Nicks had to reschedule nine concerts because of the injury.
The two-time Rock & Roll Hall of Famer, 77, did not explain what caused the injury or when she sustained it. Her team posted on her social media: “Due to a recent injury resulting in a fractured shoulder that will require recovery time, Stevie Nicks’ scheduled concerts in August and September will be rescheduled.”
The news comes shortly after Nicks and former lover/Fleetwood Mac colleague Lindsey Buckingham announced the rerelease of their 1973 duo album, “Buckingham Nicks,” that led to their being recruited to join Fleetwood Mac two years later.
Meanwhile, Nicks is working on her first new album in 14 years.
“I call it the ghost record,” she when being inducted in the Pollstar Hall of Fame in April. “It just really kinda happened in the last couple of weeks because of, you know, the [Los Angeles] fires.
“I was sitting in a hotel for 92 days, and at some point during that last part of the 92 days, I said, ‘You know what? I feel like I’m on the road, but there’s no shows. I’m just sitting here by myself, because everybody else is at the house, doing all the remediations and everything, and it’s just me, sitting here.’ And I thought, ‘You need to go back to work.’ And I did.”
Tickets for the rescheduled concert will be honored. (Never mind that the venue will have changed its name from Xcel Energy Center to Grand Casino Arena by then.) Contact the place of purchase regarding refunds.
