Just a quick note on Joni's guitars on eBay. The Blonde Ibanez was sold to a singer/songwriter in England who absolutely adores Joni and who dreams of bringing it to Jonifest so that everyone can see it and maybe even play it. She is thrilled beyond belief and honored to be the caretaker of such a precious item. The next guitar that Fred Walecki's Westwood Music is the last Sunburst Ibanez that we have. Like the Blonde, it also comes in a well-used flight case that carried it all over the world. You can see it at: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3529641046 On a personal note, I do want to thank all of the kind letters I continue to get from JMDLers. You're a wonderful group and I love being able to share these guitars with you. - --Paul - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.

I have a lot of those '83 concerts on CD but not that one. You mentioned the "Case of You" that she played on that tour...a real crowd-pleaser to be sure, and a definite change of pace from most of the plugged-in songs on that tour. I think that '83 tour was the last time Joni played the dulcimer in concert? Sometimes she played it solo and sometimes Russell Ferrante would jump in on piano as well. Regardless, people would always go nuts with applause & I'm sure the show you saw was no exception.

Leah was home a week ago getting oriented for her next stint at higher education (a collaboration between NIH and Oxford), at which time she burned herself copies of Hejira and THOSL and DJRD - to go with the first 6 that she already has. And she saw WOHAM - amazing how watching stuff live can mesmerize !!!!

Well last night I was finally able to get together with Carol North. Her parents live near Seattle and she was in town. We met and saw one another for the first time in about 39 years. She is now a psychiatrist and a professor at Washington University in St. Louis. She is considered an expert in the field of the psychological effects of catastrophic events and has been deeply involved in field research related to 9-11 (and Oklahoma City and the Nairobi embassy bombings). It was quite an experience to see her again, do some reminiscing, some catching up and some sharing of what our lives are now. Apparently we both felt some kind of affinity for one another. She said mine was one of the few pictures of kids she knew from that period that she kept in her childhood scrapbook. I also had saved pictures of her. It was a pleasure to sit and talk to this brilliant, down-to-earth, unassuming and unpretentious woman. I told her it was amazing that her facial features were so much unchanged from what I remembered and she said the same of me. We both agreed that we would continue to email one another. Travis has a friend that lives in St. Louis and it is about the closest major airport to where my parents live so I am fairly certain that Carol & I will see each other again. And there's always a chance that she will be up here again to visit her parents although her annual family reunions have been relocated to the Oregon coast. If anyone ever runs across the book 'Welcome Silence' by Carol S. North, M.D., it is a good read and a story equally as fascinating and maybe more inspiring than 'A Beautiful Mind'. Mary K. Powers, if you're lurking, thank you again for finding that email address and sharing it with me.

Unfortunately, I can't make any of the shows, but I have had her on my mind lately wondering what she's up to. Certainly it *must* be time for a new album soon (I'm just impatient). (And when she tours Germany, does she have to translate all her songs into German so they come out sounding like the "translated" versions of Joni's songs that have been on the list lately?? ; ) Lindsay ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2003 00:00:59 EDT From: MINGSDANCE@aol.com Subject: RE:newaswell She is a source of inspiration, but to me personally and this sounds so very corny I know, her music is incredibly healing. The combination of her voice and her expression of her experiences and her poetry has helped me in ways that would bore you to death to explain. I am really interested in synchronicity and how it works in the world especially in the creative world and Joni always seems to pop up and explain that and express it so perfectly clearly.. I am reading "Shadows and light" at the moment and wishing that she would write her own story. Sorry I will go now thanks again for the welcomes guys... Maggie, Great new post, you certainly "Get her" and corny-no way, that is exactly how she has affected me for the last 35 years. When I met her I told her I listen to her music every day as part of my healing therapy. My "Mantra" to good health. She is writing her book and it is due out in 2004 it is titled "Illuminati." It's great to have you diving in, you've done a triple back flip! :-) You have finally come home...
