Stevie Nicks was forced to cancel two UK solo shows earlier this month for at the time what was described as a leg injury that required a "minor surgical procedure" to correct, but during a rescheduled show in Glasgow, Scotland, the former Fleetwood Mac star revealed that the health issue was much more concerning and led to hospitalization.

“I don’t know what happened,” she told the audience. “I just got this weird infection, and it just went crazy.”

Nicks went on to explain that she was staying at a "fabulous castle" in Glasgow when she suffered the health scare. “We get here days early because we want to be here for a few days,” she said. “I finally just looked at my assistant – it was like two in the morning – and I said, ‘I think we need to go to emergency’. She looked at me and I said, ‘I’m not kidding! I think we need to go to the hospital.’ And so our butler – this wonderful man – throws us in his BMW Sedan, and off we sped through the night to a hospital.”

“They let me go back to the castle, and we cancelled this show,” she continued after revealing she was hospitalized for two days. “This whole tour I’ve been fighting what started here, and I would be damned if I wasn’t coming back here.”
