I think that's the problem...We've gone slack...Maybe Santa Baby will get us up with some handsfree headsets ;~D I can't speak for anyone else but I'm waaaaaaaaay out here: I've been busy boiling lead in preparation for the second-coming-relative-invasion };~D Susan L.A.

Anyway, does anyone have any idea if the PPV is ever going to be shown in the UK?? Some of us are getting desparate! It's bad enough that we don't get to see Joni perform. Byeee Azeem ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 29 Nov 1998 14:26:13 EST From: AzeemAK@aol.com Subject: News from the UK JMDLers (NJC) Looks like Rob & I were the only two to make it to the Lucinda Williams show. Shame really, as she was on top form and great voice. Only thing was the band was too big - apart from her own guitar, there were 3 other guitarists, which wasn't really necessary. Come back Gurf Morlix, all is forgiven! A word too about young Jamie Jake - I went to see him in the play he was doing, "The Immigrant Song", and he was truly excellent. The man has a great sense of comic timing, and does a spot-on Pakistani accent! One of my pipe dreams is to adapt "sex lies & videotape" for the stage, and I've got Jamie pencilled in for the Peter Gallagher part. Rob went too, and was similarly enthused. So, look out for Jamie in the forthcoming "Star Wars" film - blink and you'll miss him! My next posting will have some Joni content, I think - it's been a while since I included anything about the one this is all supposed to be about :-) Azeem in London NP - nothing. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 29 Nov 1998 15:17:21 -0500 From: luvart@snet.net Subject: Re: Anybody out there?

How about we all get video hook-ups from Santa?! I know that Marsha and I joked about this. Then when someone gets in the mood to flame they can just visually moon 'em.

I don't think anyone posted it; forgive me if it's a repeat. (Note: it's pretty lame. Just my opinion).. A return to her jazzier side, TTT finds JM, now 54, happy but hardly complacent. Featuring saxophonist Wayne Shorter (Weather Report) and drummer Brian Blade (Joshua Redman), the album includes sensuous, romantic numbers like Love Puts on a New Face, with its swirling keyboards and Mitchell's pastel-shaded chords, and The Crazy Cries of Love, about a late-night tryst on a train bridge that she wrote with her boyfriend, Saskatoon songwriter Don Freed. But other songs, such as Lead Balloon and No Apologies, attack some of Mitchell's favorite targets: corrupt lawyers and two-faced record executives. On the acerbic title track, she sings, "I'm a runaway from the record biz / from the hoods in the 'hood / and the whiny white kids / Boring!" For the most part, however, the album is a celebration of Mitchell's newfound love. On Face Lift, she gently rebukes her mother for disapproving of her unmarried relationship with Freed. "Why is this joy not allowed?" she asks. On Stay in Touch, she sings the simple title phrase over and over, illuminating the words until they glow with new meaning. Like the landscape and portrait paintings by the singer that illustrate the CD booklet, Mitchell's best songs cast sometimes uncommon subjects in an uncommonly bright light. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com I love cats.

Hey Heather! The lead pouring went beautifully...My cauldron is now washed, rinsed, dried and back in it's cupboard. I have graduated to bomb assembly: By my calculations I should be ready just in time for Christmas };~D I love your and Marsha's video hook-up "moon'em" idea! Perhaps it's time we all wrote Santa? Here's mine: "...Santa Baby, forgot to mention one little rasher, a smasher... So hurry down the chimney tonight..."-??? slightly altered ;~) Susan L.A. Honey McBabe-"...Who is this Hitler, spoiling everything?!..." Princess Margaret-circa World War 2-when her trip to Balmoral was delayed.
