Night of a Thousand Stevies is the best-known Stevie Nicks fan event in the world, a riot of shawls, lace, baby's breath, twirling, tambourines and great performance. This event began at JACKIE 60 nineteen years ago with four performers, and has grown into a true spectacle, featuring countless interpretations over a marathon night. As always, this Enchanted evening ends in a twirl of shawls and tambourines with the Battle of a Thousand Stevies near morning.

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, produced by the JACKIE FACTORY NYC. 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.
Over one thousand fans turned out to watch twenty-five show segments featuring both the timeless stars and new discoveries that make "The Night" so special. Returning Legends of Stevie Realness included NYC Dragstar (and Project Runway supermodel) SWEETIE, AMBER GARBO (Las Vegas), GYPSY WILDE, NOTS 19 cover girl JAZMEN FLOWERS (Mississippi), BILLY O, MISS GUY and GOON SQUAD, HEATHER LITTEER (aka JESSICA RABBIT DOMINATION), THE DIVINE GRACE, THE PIXIE HARLOTS, MIRROR IN THE SKY, DARLINDA JUST DARLINDA, MISS KELLY WEBB and ADAM JOSEPH. Show producers CHI CHI VALENTI and HATTIE HATHAWAY were the "Enchantresses of Ceremony" and all-Stevie/Fleetwood DJs CRAIG SPENCER, SAMMY JO and POISON EVE kept the dancefloor Hopelessly Enchanted between show sets.
This year's new performers and participants began with NYC Ballet icon and teacher JOCK SOTO, who choreographed the show's opening Rhiannon Ballet. The other 2009 debuts at SONGS OF RHIANNON included theater artist TAYLOR MAC, aerialist BELLA LUNA, singer-songwriter COREY TUT with PATTY BRUCE, darkwave princess LADY ZOMBIE, underground crooner ADAM DUGAS with harpist MIA THEODORATUS and Drag King BILLY MOTION as LINDSEY BUCKINGHAM.
