My first tips to recovery are: 1 Remember the times you have been to a great party, gig or social event and felt extremely isolated. Say things to yourself like :'Oh I'd probably feel really left out at Joni Fest 2009 and not know what to say. Meeting new people is really hard. I would just be compounding my misery if I were there.' DON'T allow yourself to think how nice people are. 2 On each morning of the Fest, be very grateful that you will not have to experience the food and drink hangovers that are likely to be an integral part of this event. 3 Use Inner Self Talk like; a) 'At Joni Fest, they'll probably play all the Joni tunes I DON'T like. I am so glad I can just be at home and play the Joni tracks I REALLY like' b) 'Thank the God/Goddess I don't have to do all that hugging, loving, feel good stuff.' To sum up, you can put them all together as I have done here. Something like: c) 'I shall not eat or drink, just hug myself on my own in my bedroom and play 'The Last Time I Saw Richard' till Sunday. If you have any tips of your own, I look forward to receiving them. I have been bitten when I tried to rescue a cat trapped in wire and can't lift my arm so I have a unique self help tool. I am saying 'I couldn't posssibly have flown to the US with an infected arm and I certainly couldn't have played my guitar.' This helps me forget how much I have loved previous Joni Fests, hanging out with Muller, chatting with Lieve, seeing Henning play The Beatles with Blackburn, hearing the sublime voice of Robin Adler..........

Say things to yourself like :'Oh > I'd probably feel > really left out at Joni Fest 2009 and not know what to say. Here are some from me: 1. Be grateful you don't have to embarrass yourself by attempting to play a song in front of so many pro musicians, especially when you haven't played for at least three years. Convince yourself that's the REAL reason you're not going. 2. Tell yourself that California really isn't all it's cracked up to be anyway, and you'd only be disappointed if you were there. 3. Put a quarter in the Wurlitzer. __________________________________________________________________ Looking for the perfect gift?

Laura - it's clear to me that you like roses and kisses and pretty men. It's Just as well you ain't there at Socal Jonifest 2009! There will be LOADS of pretty men, roses ajd kisses. Just remember in your Inner Self Talk to say to yourself 'I DON'T need roses, kisses or pretty men!' You see, you will find it works every time! Back in the UK, I'm just going over to my table to blow this damn candle out, I've got no-one to talk to, I've got nothing to talk to anybody about. Ahhh, but all good dreamers pass this way some day. Oh Lord, just contacted my inner Patti. I knew she was in there somewhere.

Henry" Subject: RE: Chuck, Joni... & me!!! base64 encoded Mime section invalid - length (5725) was wrong. [demime found a multipart/alternative section which it tried to parse but could not find any section which it could render. Please send plain text.] Les, There are many dates unrecorded in the chronology. In fact I would say that Joni, with and without Chuck, played the Cellar, on average, about once every 1.5 months throughout '66 and '67. (Actually, the last time they played together was 4/67 according to the chronology.) The only one who would have any info on the missing dates would be Brian Moss and the last email I got from his came from mossport@comcast.net. Sorry I can't help more. It's probable that most of the empty weekends there are in the chronology for that period, Joni was at the Cellar. The problem is, we were just a bunch of kids and proper records were not kept. Best Regards, Pat - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The only time we have in the Chronology for Port Huron is early 65 or late 66 when Joni played alone. Must be from a date we don’t know about. From: P.

Hi Les, Um, well, aside from "circa 1966 in the dressing room of the Cellar coffeehouse in Port Huron, MI where I spent so many hours with Joni." I'm not sure what I can tell ya. Yes, I would say it is "more than appropriate" that these be included in the site. Thank you. If anyone can photoshop/restore them that would be great. Aside from the 43yrs of wear 'n tear the original quality was that these were taken by one of the gals with one of those little polaroid 'swinger' cameras and so, are blown up from about 2X3 size. That part of my life is like a dream to me now and these pics are the only real evidence that it actually happened aside from my memories.

I gave my two cents and they may be only worth, well, two cents. But I also have a second opinion here, a musician who plays sax, piano, bass and guitar, who has also lived with a hammer dulcimer (we don't bother with whole "hammered" thing, only if that's how we're feeling that night), and he said "no way" on the dulcimer. Strumming style most important. It would be very difficicult to do, and actually a strange instrument to do it on. I have never heard hammer dulcimer on any other joni tunes, either. The debate continues...I wish I knew the answer (go ask the dancer...).
