[Les Irvin ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2002 03:05:25 -0500 From: les@jmdl.com Subject: Today in Joni History: January 18 On January 18 in Joni Mitchell History: 1974: Joni performs at the Kiel Opera House in St. Louis on the first date of her tour with the LA Express. In the February 28th issue of Rolling Stone, Trish Vandiver reviews the concert, saying in part: "Joni took the stage in a stunning, low-cut, backless, red dress, her honey hair cropped to just above her breasts. She leaned, smiling, from the edge of the stage to accept a bouquet of a dozen red roses and placed them in a vase, which she kept onstage throughout the show."

Bree who was given the "bird" this morning by a woman through her moonroof. Ironically, I was listening to TI,Borderline. I pulled up next to her thinking she didn't mean that gesture for me, and I mouthed with the car window up "Did you mean that for me?" She looking at me... I believe she shrugged, YES!

Some of these recordings are available and are very interesting. Joni does "Woman of Heart & Mind", "Edith & The Kingpin", "Don't Interrupt The Sorrow", and an early version of "Coyote" where she sings the original lyric: "He's got a woman for the night and I think he wants one for the day" instead of: "He's got a woman down the hall and I think he wants me anyway". Wonder what prompted that lyric change? Plus, she joins in for the "encore" of "This Land Is Your Land" where she fudges a verse about the Vancouver Islands... << I thought the concert that I attended was in 1975? (Zincinnati) Or anybody that would know that wants to chime in.>> The concert you attended was most likely in February of 1976, her HOSL tour. Yes, she was also on the road with the LA Express for this one. Great shows, some very creative performances. Les posted an article this week about this tour, which was supposed to be her first big world tour but they pulled the plug after Joni's breakup with John Guerin. If anyone has any recordings from this tour, please let me know! I have a couple but would LOVE to hear more - never hurts to ask! :~) Bob ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2002 08:10:56 -0800 From: Steve Dulson Subject: HOSL teaser on NPR Scott wrote: >Anyone else hear the opening strains of Joni's "Hissing of Summer Lawns" on >NPR's "All Things Considered" today? No, but last week ATC followed up a story on the election-year amnesty on parking tickets in France with the first 30 or 40 seconds of "Free Man in Paris".

(no joni content, but this might be important enough to share with joni-onlies) Hi, all, I just got an e-mail with "Vera Lundgren" as the subject, and an attachment with a ".bat" suffix from someone I don't know. His name/address was "Jerome Bray". Did anyone else get this? Is this person a jmdler? Or could this be a virus? (I have a Mac and I didn't open the attachment, but I'm worried about the rest of you...) If it *was* from a jmdler, and it *was* something I asked for, I apologize, but I need more information about the attachment to help me remember than "Here's the info you asked for." Sorry if I'm being alarmist, but just in case, I thought I'd spread the word - -- and not the virus. warmly, Walt ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2002 23:36:23 -0000 From: "Jamie Zubairi" Subject: Re: Olympicesque Wasn't the boy a left over from the Hejire shoot?

My brother, the car buff, (restorer of classic cars too) among other things, informs me that there wasn't a '57 Biscayne. The Biscayne was a notch below the Impala,price wise and the Biscayne came out in 1958. I'd like to prove him wrong. :-) He kids me about MY JONI not being perfect...........although concedes the poetic license of a songwriter.
