Much like Cat's Eyes, Stevie Nicks won't be appearing in NYC this week. As the press release on her website reads...

"Stevie Nicks, whose highly anticipated new CD "In Your Dreams" is scheduled to be released tomorrow May 3rd, has had to cancel several upcoming appearances in New York due to coming down with pneumonia and the flu.

Her doctor informed her over the weekend that she needed to "stay in bed and not fly" until she gets better. Nicks, 62, was scheduled to perform at a star studded event thrown in her honor by her record label Reprise Records at NY's Webster Hall on May 4th and was also planning on appearing on the Today Show and Good Day NY on May 3rd.

"I want to apologize to all my fans and hope that we can reschedule and of course I hope you love the new album. It's for you," commented Nicks.

Of course that just means another chance to see Kylie Minogue that day, at her third of three Hammerstein Ballroom shows happening this week.

Stevie Nicks is currently on tour with Rod Stewart who you probably didn't want to see at Madison Square Garden on 3/26 and 4/6, even if you were tempted by Stevie's irresistible appearance on the bill. Well, good news: The Fleetwood Mac vocalist will celebrate the release of her new solo LP, In Your Dreams, with a rare club appearance at Webster Hall on May 4th, the day after the record hits store shelves, and two days before she plays the Borgata in Atlantic City.

Head to the Stevie Nicks webstore to pre-order the new LP. While you're there you can trade your email address for a "unique Ticketmaster pre-sale code" for Webster Hall tickets. Pre-sale begins Wednesday at 10am. Tickets go on general sale on Saturday, 4/16, at noon. There's a "radio presale" happening Friday too.

NIGHT OF 1000 STEVIES, New York City's legendary STEVIE NICKS homage, returned for its nineteenth annual edition on May 1 at THE HIGHLINE BALLROOM. NOTS 19: SONGS OF RHIANNON was a May Day marathon of twirling and enchantment, attended by over a thousand fans. This year's theme - and the centerpiece of the show - were the ten "SONGS OF RHIANNON" penned by STEVIE NICKS in her BUCKINGHAM NICKS days. In stage decor, visuals and costuming, NOTS 19 paid homage to the Celtic white witch RHIANNON - fitting for a date that was both MAY DAY and BELTANE. As always, "The Night" climaxed with the heart-stopping BATTLE OF A THOUSAND STEVIES, as all the show's performers and costumed fans took the stage for a final dose of "Total Stevie Realness".

NIGHT OF A THOUSAND STEVIES is the biggest and best-loved STEVIE NICKS fan event in the world, one of those great New York City spectacles that sparks travel from all around the globe. Born in 1990 at the tiny performance venue MOTHER at the weekly JACKIE 60 party, "The Night" has run for nineteen years, even inspiring the 2001 film GYPSY 83. Neither a contest nor a karaoke show, NOTS is the Stevie celebration plus ultra - a riot of shawls, lace, baby's breath, twirling, tambourines and great performance.

The real Stevie has a show coming up at Madison Square Garden. More pictures from Highline Ballroom below...

Stevie Nicks (who is currently on a break from Fleetwood Mac's 3-month Unleashed tour) (and not actually pictured above) will stop by New York City for a visit to the Union Square Barnes & Noble on Tuesday, March 31st (7pm). The autograph session event will promote Nicks' Live In Chicago DVD and The Soundstage Sessions CD, both out that day on Reprise Records. The CD is comprised of 10 songs from the live-show DVD, which was recorded in October 2007. Nicks appears on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon the following day, April 1st.

If you wanted to catch Fleetwood Mac in NYC, their MSG gig already happened (on March 15th).

"Opening with 1975's jubilant "Monday Morning," the band's remaining four main members wove through a two hour and 20 minute set that functioned as a nearly unbroken greatest hits medley." [Daily News]

But still coming up is annual party Night of 1,000 Stevies, "the biggest and best-loved Stevie Nicks fan event in the world," which is taking place at the Highline Ballroom in NYC on Friday May 1st. The event, presented by the Jackie Factory, is in its 19th year. The theme is "Songs of Rhiannon," a reference to the Fleetwood Mac tune "Rhiannon" (included on Nicks's live DVD) and the ten Nicks-penned songs about the mythological Welsh goddess. Tickets are on sale for the event.
