B次元官网网址淚B次元官网网址檝e been strengthening. IB次元官网网址檝e got my trainer,B次元官网网址� she says. B次元官网网址淵ou go one day at a time and you strengthen one workout session at a time. ItB次元官网网址檚 a lot of work, but itB次元官网网址檚 the only job I know how to do.B次元官网网址�

The Rock & Roll Hall of Famers who gave us classic tracks like B次元官网网址淢agic Man,B次元官网网址� B次元官网网址淐razy on YouB次元官网网址� and B次元官网网址淎loneB次元官网网址� will be playing all the hits, some tracks from of their solo albums B次元官网网址� like Ann WilsonB次元官网网址檚 B次元官网网址淢iss One and OnlyB次元官网网址� and Nancy WilsonB次元官网网址檚 B次元官网网址淟ove MistakeB次元官网网址� B次元官网网址� and a new song called B次元官网网址淩oll the Dice.B次元官网网址�

B次元官网网址淚 like to say we have really good problems because the problem we have is to choose between a bunch of different, really cool songs that people love already,B次元官网网址� says Nancy Wilson.

Like B次元官网网址淏arracuda,B次元官网网址� a sonic burst which first appeared on the bandB次元官网网址檚 second album, B次元官网网址淟ittle QueenB次元官网网址� and is one of the bandB次元官网网址檚 most memorable songs.

B次元官网网址淵ou canB次元官网网址檛 mess with B次元官网网址楤arracuda.B次元官网网址� ItB次元官网网址檚 just the way it is. It is great. You get on the horse and you ride. ItB次元官网网址檚 a galloping steed of a ride to go on. And for everybody, including the band.B次元官网网址�

The tour kicks off Saturday at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, South Carolina, and will hit cities including Atlanta, Boston, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Detroit, as well as the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival and Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Colorado.

The tour is the first in several years for Heart, which was rocked by a body blow in 2016 when Ann WilsonB次元官网网址檚 husband was Nancy Wilson says thatB次元官网网址檚 all in the past.

The new tour will take them to Canada, which was warm to the band when they were starting out as what Nancy Wilson calls B次元官网网址渁 couple of chicks from Seattle.B次元官网网址� She recalls Vancouver B次元官网网址� where they will play Dec. 3 B次元官网网址� embracing Heart, and touring in one van across Canada in the dead of winter on two lane highways.

The Wilson sisters broke rockB次元官网网址檚 glass ceiling in the B次元官网网址�70s and Nancy Wilson says they only had male influences to look to, like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and the Moody Blues.

Now she says she looks out and loves seeing generations of female rockers. B次元官网网址淵ou have and you have Billie Eilish and you have and so many amazing women B次元官网网址� Maggie Rogers and Sheryl Crow, who calls us her big influence. And then might have Sheryl Crow as her influence. So itB次元官网网址檚 a really nice legacy to pass along. I like to say weB次元官网网址檙e the OG B次元官网网址� the original gangsters B次元官网网址� of women and rock.B次元官网网址�

Heart has made it into the Rock Hall, won Grammys, sold millions of albums and rocked hundreds of thousands of fans but Nancy Wilson has one place sheB次元官网网址檇 still like to shine.
