So, I called Robinson Auditorium and emailed her information on it. Robinson is historical and just down the street from Bill Clinton's presidential library and the Old State House where he announced his candidacy and appeared after being elected. It might not be what they are looking for, but at least they are open to hearing about places down here.

I hope things work out but Calgary supports the arts so it is very important for this ballet to be successful and for the critics to give high regards. Ms. Mitchell has had a lot of free air space to sell the ballet and packing the theater with celebrates is a great idea but I haven't heard of ballet critics supporting the it. I am unable to be impartial its my personal opinion that Fiddle and the Drum is unique, thought provoking, challenging, and even daring but I just don't like it. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 16:28:54 -0800 From: Corey Blake Subject: Re: Joni & Morgellons That Billboard article is the first I've heard of Joni having Morgellon's disease.

I always love moments like this. ***** Now where did you hear about this, Rian? Did love put it on a new Facebook page? (Glad it made the cut for your 3 CD "other Joan" compilation, David Eoll!) I can feel your joy, Rian. I remember hearing it for the first time and going through the roof! JONI! Listen to that THAT VOICE! Of course, that was probably before you were born. It was 1975. I remember racing to the record store to get it. (How did we hear about new albums back then? No internet. Rolling Stone and word of mouth, I guess. Or you turn me on I'm a radio. Or strolling through the record stores.) Anyway, I raced back to my college apt, pulled into the driveway with the brakes on my $100 1961 "Little Green" VW bug complaining (I had to put brake fluid in it every other day....who had money for repairs?), and bee-lined for the stereo. (Dual turntable on Bob's red art table, Marantz 323 receiver?) Off with the Dead or ABB or The Band or Leo Kottke or David Bromberg or whatever else my roommates were playing. "Ya gotta hear this guys! It's JONI on a Joan Baez album!" They shook their heads and didn't stand in my way. I played it over and over, exultant and joyous over "that voice." When friends and kin and campers in our kitchen were there on weekends, they'd get to hear it, too. Ha. Like it or not! I probably wore those grooves out and scratched it pretty badly putting it on all the time. I think I first heard Joan Baez while babysitting for this cool hippie couple down the road. Eighth grade or so. Having just moved back to "you're so square" CT from California and the Summer of Love, I did a lot of babysitting so I could earn money to get back to CA. (50 cents an hour, and 75 after midnight, did not add up too fast.) Most of the families were Harry's House suburban WASPY families, but not this one. They had Joan and Peter Paul & Mary and it was a pleasure to sit there. Even though they were cool, they had a rule that I couldn't have friends over, so when Alexandra (?) was asleep, I just played their albums. I'd love to hear Dida again.
