Subject: Re: Day After Day Hi Bob, I have an old concert program from the first Joni concert I ever attended at the Avon Theatre in Stratford, Ontario on July 10th, 1969. In the biography it contains, it states: "As time went on, she found she enjoyed singing more than painting, and decided to make a trek to the Mariposa Folk Festival, a three-day trip east on the C.P.R. On the way she wrote her first song, a blues number called "Day After Day," timed to the clacking of railroad wheels on steel rails." I think I have a list of the songs she performed that night. I'll have to look for it. That concert hooked me on Joni and her music for life. It was my first chance to get to meet her, and she signed that program for me. If I remember correctly, she wore the same green velvet dress that she wore on the Dick Cavett show soon after. Woodstock took place around that time, didn't it? Hope all is going well for you in China. Stay safe!
