WIthout any of the music, they probably would have a really tough time getting the project greenlighted.

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. ------------------------------ End of JMDL Digest V2013 #1060 ****************************** ------- To post messages to the list, sendtojoni@smoe.org.
