This was part of the 4 consecutive Friday evenings filled with singer-songewriter programmes, including quite a bit of Joni stuff, that I reported on before. The season is definitely over now: this Friday we have several programmes on heavy metal, which I just may have to miss for something better to do... But anybody into Black Sabbath or the Canadian bank Anvil: you know now where to find them!
