Rock's Hardest Partiers: No. 17
- Posted by Spinner
Every member of Fleetwood Mac spent the '70s high as a kite. The band even thanked their coke dealer on the 'Rumours' sleeve. But there's another rumor that's almost as famous: Stevie's nose ended up so damaged that she had to enlist a roadie's help to blow drugs into a less-accessible orifice. She denies the story, but owns up to the fact that nowadays she could "put a big gold ring" through her septum. Two decades of Bolivian marching powder and tranquilizers nearly derailed her career, but today she's clean and sober.

I worked at at a large concert venue when she went on to sing by herself. She would be so drunk that after all of her shows, security would have to carry her to her limo. I'm glad she got clean and sober.

Big Mac still rocks! As a lyricist and performing artist Stevie continues to amaze. In this day of slick commercial packaging and lip synching phonies she still shines at the top of her craft.

AWESOME LADY...She was doing exactly what a whole lot of us were doing back in the day. I saw her two years ago when she was touring w/Tom Petty...She still has a great voice. Again, an awesome and gracious lady.

Stevie Nicks was a party girl from the get go, anytime she was sleeping with the same bandmates she was getting high with... come on... she was a rock n roll ho.

Stevie has been so much a part of my life since I was a teenager. I am now 50. Through it all, she is the personification of grace, perseverance and compassion. Not to mention the best female rocker of all time. Still is, actually. Her mystique and subtle sexiness are second to none. Forget about the drugs. She triumphed and got through it to her credit. From Long Distance Winner from Buckingham Nicks to Sorcerer from TISL and all the great, great, timeless, songs in between with and without Fleetwood Mac, thank you for everything, the great, great music and for being you. Rock on, Stevie, you're the poet in my heart.....once in a million years, a lady like you rises.....

Buckingham Nicks was the best album she was ever involved with, too bad she and Lindsey went by the wayside.

Stevie Nicks and talent should NEVER be used in the same sentence. She was barely marginally talented and a total flake - no doubt from the drugs...
