McNamara" ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2013 14:29:59 +0000 From: "Susan E. McNamara" Subject: RE: Podcast link I listened to the 25-minute call-in show, too. I could see how this guy could be a right-wing windbag, but I also agree with him. He was spot on about Joni's place as a world renowned composer and artist, and didn't stand for people dissing her. He knew a lot about her, too. I loved the truck driver who called in and said Shania Twain's hometown is like a shrine to her!!! What the heck! Ithaca at least has an annual Joni Mitchell Tribute show at the local community arts building, can't they do something like that? Our home town boys are Carl Sagan and Rod Serling! Come do the Solar System walk sometime! :-) Susan Tierney McNamara email: sem8@cornell.edu - -----Original Message----- From: owner-joni@smoe.org [mailto:owner-joni@smoe.org] On Behalf Of Catherine McKay Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2013 9:30 AM To: Robert Procyk; joni@smoe.org Subject: Re: Podcast link HE didn't annoy me nearly as much as I expected him to. Bonus: the clip is only 60 seconds long, long enough for my short attention span. Lord help me, I agree with the guy. I'm mystified as to how Joni's "approval" seems necessary for any honour, which leads back to the whole film bio issue we talked about a few weeks ago. I guess it would be nice to have the person's approval but there are unauthorized biographies galore. And yeah, most of them are crap - but how many biographies, even autobiographies, can be completely factual? It's the old situation of how many sides there are to a story: yours, mine and the truth. The "truth" which would have to be completely factual, not coloured by personal perceptions, and therefore boring as hell, kind of like history class back in school. I guess if the person is still alive, there's potential for a law suit, definitely for embarassment and a lot of trash-talkin'. Anyone wanting to listen to the podcast - it's the one from July 25 - right at the top now, but probably not by tomorrow. >________________________________ > From: Robert Procyk >To: joni@smoe.org >Sent: Wednesday, July 24, 2013 8:42:59 PM >Subject: Podcast link > > >Here's the link to the podcast.
