Nicks also joined co-headliner Billy Joel for two duets.

Stevie Nicks paid tribute to late bandmate Christine McVie in her first show since the Fleetwood Mac member's death.

Nicks launched her co-headlining tour with Billy Joel at Inglewood's SoFi Stadium, where she dedicated Fleetwood Mac classic "Landslide" to McVie.

During Nicks' performance of the song, the backdrop showed pictures of McVie. When Nicks finished the song, she had an emotional moment of silence. "I have to imagine she’s still here. It’s all that I'm trying to do," said the singer about McVie, while getting choked up.

In a Rolling Stone interview from 2014, McVie talked about her strong friendship with Nicks, and why where wasn't any competition between the two women in the band.

"We met and I instantly liked her. She and I are not competitive in any way at all. We’re totally different, but totally sympathetic with each other," McVie said at the time. "We are dear, dear friends. We don’t have any competition on stage. She is who she is. I am who I am. Easy, easy, easy."

In addition to the sentimental tribute, Nicks also performed some songs that are rarely featured on her setlist. According to Rolling Stone, Nicks sang "Fall From Grace" for the first time in over a decade, and also did Fleetwood Mac's "Sara" solo for the first time since 2008.

Besides those rare additions, Nicks and Joel made sure to give fans a show to remember, popping into each other's sets.

Joel joined Nicks during her set to do Tom Petty's part in her 1981 hit "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around." Nicks also made her way to the stage during Joel's set to sing "And So It Goes" as a duet.
