A concert announcement and change Friday. The upcoming Stevie Nicks show at the Xcel Energy Center is being postponed.
The show was originally scheduled for Tuesday, August 19 in St. Paul. The show has now been moved to November 12. But a recent injury resulting in a fractured shoulder that will require recovery time is forcing Nicks to push back the show.
At that point, the arena and home for the Minnesota Wild will no longer be the Xcel Energy Center after a new naming rights agreement makes it the Grand Casino Arena.
All previously purchased tickets will be honored for the new date.
The former Fleetwood Mac singer has recently announced a reissue of her collaboration with former Fleetwood Mac guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, 'Buckingham Nicks,' a 1973 album that originally bombed but has since gathered a cult following.
“Buckingham Nicks” was released one year before they joined Fleetwood Mac, and was met with little commercial success. But it did attract the attention of Mick Fleetwood, who invited Buckingham to join Fleetwood Mac. Buckingham in turn insisted Nicks come, too. The two, then a couple, became the central faces, voices and songwriters of the group for the four decades that followed.
Buckingham left the band in 1987, returning in 1996. The last time the band reunited, however, for a 2018-2019 tour, the rest of the members kicked Buckingham out, and as a result, he sued them. He claimed he was told five days after the group appeared at Radio City Music Hall that the band would tour without him. He says he would have been paid at least $12 million for his share of the proceeds. Later that year, Buckingham said they had settled the lawsuit.
Both Buckingham and Nicks have also released reams of solo music. Some fans had theorized that Nicks and Buckingham were teasing a Fleetwood Mac reunion, which would have been the first since the death of vocalist, songwriter and keyboard player Christine McVie in 2022.
Last year, Nicks told MOJO that without McVie, “there is no chance of putting Fleetwood Mac back together in any way.”
