NEW YORK (AP) - It's been five years since their last tour, but Stevie Nicks says chemistry is still strong among the members of Fleetwood Mac. Nicks says they're gelling as they prepare for their "Unleashed" tour.
She says the magic is still there, and they're all excited to get back out on the road.
The group _ which these days consists of Nicks, Mick Fleetwood, Lindsey Buckingham and John McVie _ announced last month they were going on tour for the first time since 2003. Now they've announced new dates that include Philadelphia, Atlanta, Dallas and Los Angeles.
The tour kicks off March 1 in Pittsburgh.

1/12/2009 By Brock Thiessen
L.A.'s tropical freak punks Abe Vigoda will soon kick-start their 2009 by way of a new five-track EP. On February 17, the tropical-loving quartet will drop Reviver, a release that finds the band "claiming new, darker musical territory" with a "more experimental direction," according to an online statement.
Like the group’s hotly tipped Skeleton LP, this release will come courtesy of Post Present Medium (the imprint run by No Age’s Dean Spunt), which will press this release on both ten-inch and CD. Among Reviver’s five tracks, you’ll find “Don’t Lie,” a song that’s made frequent live appearances, a cover of Wild Heart” by Stevie Nicks and a demo of the Skeleton track “Endless Sleeper.”
Abe Vigoda are reportedly getting ready to kick off another North American tour and are expected to announce their confirmed tour stops shortly. In the meantime, here’s the tracklisting for Reviver:
1. “Don't Lie”
2. “House”
3. “Endless Sleeper”
4. “Wild Heart”
5. “The Reaper”

Stevie has been one of the magical things in my life
Billboard Q&A: Songwriter Rick Nowels

After penning songs for the likes of Stevie Nicks and Belinda Carlisle, veteran pop songwriter Rick Nowels used 2008 as the year to write for the urban pop audience. As such, Nowels, who lives in London, traveled to Los Angeles and helped balladeer John Legend write his uptempo song, "Green Light," which currently sits at No. 6 on the R&B/Hip-Hop songs chart. In December, "Green Light" was nominated for a Grammy for best rap/sung collaboration and here Nowels spoke to Billboard.biz about his inspiration, writing "Heaven is a Place on Earth" and why he loves Kanye West's "Love Lockdown."
What was your inspiration for "Green Light?"
We wrote the song a year ago in Los Angeles, I was playing electric guitar and John was singing. My inspiration was Curtis Mayfield and Prince.
When did you begin song writing, what were your first hits?
I started writing songs when I was 13. I did a lot of performing throughout my teens and twenties. Then, in a very random way, Stevie Nicks heard a few of my songs and we ended up writing together.
We had a hit with "I can't wait" in 1986, which led to writing for and producing Belinda Carlisle. Ellen Shipley, another songwriter, and I wrote "Heaven is a Place on Earth" and "Circle in the Sand" and I produced the "Heaven on Earth" album. That set me on the path I am today as a writer/producer.
How would you describe your chemistry with Stevie Nicks?
Working with Stevie has been one of the magical things in my life. When she walks in the room you feel that old school otherworldly rock star thing. When you hear her voice coming through the speakers you know you're hearing greatness. She's a poet. I've been lucky to have written songs with her on every record she's made since "Rock a Little" in 1986. We had a big hit in 1989 called "Rooms on Fire". Stevie opened the door for me in the music business.
