I investigated it a bit because I don't want to spread misinformation. Here is one fan's memory of the show (scroll down to reply #21 by "Soft Silver Chain.")
Warning: some people are being immature in the thread below. Also, I'm not saying these fans are representative of Stevie fans in general. There are many boards in the Fleetwood Mac fandom, and this board (Seven Wonders) has a bit of a reputation as attracting mostly a younger crowd (no offense to the teens and preteens!)

However, I can find no such interview recorded, and the last known appearance of Joe on Howard Stern is 1993 up until 2005, I believe. So you're right in that Kelly (SoftSilverChain) must have her dates wrong. I had always assumed the comment was pre-sobriety, too. In fact, in my original post above, I put it was an interview in the eighties, then went to look it up to be sure and was very shocked to find the 1995 date!
