Although I'm a long time (long time...a couple of years!) user at jmdl.com, I've just subscribed to the list, so it's time for an introduction! Well, I was told to do so, beacuse I would've found a lot of people here longing to meet me... I am Danilo, I'm 24 and I live in Bari, Puglia, Italia. How many Italian subscribers are there??? I've been a Joniphile since a couple of years or more and I'm totally and continuously blown away by her music and her artistry. I play guitar and enjoy singing and playing Joni's songs and I wish I could play the piano, because the piano songs are the ones I like most, even though my favourites are Hejira and Amelia. Some days ago I was visiting youtube.com, looking for some Joni live videos. I found some, and I also looked for other artists that I like (E Badu, Bjork , The Cranberries, Alanis, Siniad...) and I found a lot of fans who posted their own covers videos. So I asked myself "Why can't I?". I embraced my guitar, switched on my webcam in front of my big nose and started singing and filming. At the start I was really afraid someone would've said "Hey, but wtf are you donig?Who the hell do you think you are?" (well, some said). In spite of this fear of mine, people were posting really pleasing comments and I was happy =) Video by video, comment by comment, wedding proposal by wedding proposal (how strange it is...), one day I received an email by a certain Mark-Leon Thorne. As I read he was a member of the jonimitchell.com staff, I was falling down from my blue plastic spinning chair. I just stopped reading and thought "I knew I shouldn't have posted the videos, now they all got offended by my insolence and want me to remove them...". I breathed deeply and went on reading. I started doubting of my English, since I really thought I wasn't understanding what Mark wrote, but 20 years spent on studying English can't be thrown in the dustbin by an email... Well, he told me that he was extracting the audio from my videos and sending it to Bob to make a cd of my covers for the subscribers of the list. I still have goose-flesh when I think about it... It was my dream to record a cd of Joni songs. Now it's slowly coming true. Well, my dream is to become a pro singer, but things happen when you don't expect them to, as in this case! Mark also told me that there's been a lot of buzz about my covers and invited me to subscribe to the list, because you were curious to know who this weird insolent and so self conceited/confident (this I added, Mark didn't write it!) guy is. Here I am. I know that there will be a jonifest soon. I'd like it so much to be there, but unfortunatley I cannot travel to the otherside of the world. My videos (or eventually the cd) will be my kind of presence testimony! Well, that's it, for now!

I enjoyed your videos a lot, I thought your singing and playing was very honest and had a nice sense of sensitivity. And you already know what Mark in Australia thinks. We do have some members in Italy, not too many that are heard from very often - maybe you will help to wake them up!

Thanks for posting this, Deb. I also finally caught Danillo and discovered for myself what all the hoo-ha is about. Great work, Danillo! One of these days when I have time I'm going to spend a month on YouTube checking stuff out. - --Smurf - --- Deb Messling wrote: > I just saw this on YouTube. It was new to me.
