I've been transcribing new Joni tunes, making changes to arrangements, rewriting charts, practicing, rehearsing, and getting the word out to as many people as possible about the show. > > My fellow bandmates and I have had 3 rehearsals in the past few weeks, fine tuning each song. Rehearsing with my bandmates is such a rarity, hence a luxury, and proves the axiom that time is the greatest gift we can ever give to another. I am so honored to work with these amazing and talented musicians. The depth of soul that they bring to the music is so inspiring to me. > > This will be our first appearance (hopefully, of many) performing at the Narrows Center for the Arts, and we are really looking forward to it. We hope you will come out and support us for this very special concert and live recording.

Ha ha, Victor. If they had, then maybe things would be better now. Apologies to all if these emails I'm sending look messed up. Yahoo has changed the way they present emails to me and it's now putting the original and replies together, and I'm not sure yet how to deal with that. Stupid yahoo. They're a bunch of.... yahoos.

LOL. He once referred to Anais Nin's life's work as "those horrible diaries." What a putz. Him and Irene! Happy Thanksgiving to you, too. I like the long weekend part, but turkey? Meh, who cares.
