There's a picture of Joni & Neil when she visited the "Tonight's the Night" sessions in 1973. Neil comments: "It was an LP recorded in audio verite' , if you will,while completely intoxicated on Jose Cuervo tequila. We would not start recording until midnight, when we were so fucked up we could hardly walk. One night Joni Mitchell came in and did "Raised on Robbery" in the most sexy and revealing version that song ever had. She still refuses to let me release it.

It was out at our hotel and breakfast spot. Waiting for the ferry back to Vancouver now. Free wifi with no password! I was able to share with Joni that I had been at the taping of PWWAM, that my first meeting with her in CA had facilitated that and this was full circle. I gave her the photo i brought, and at long last had my pic taken with her. I will let the others share their individual encounters. A recurring theme I heard from her was how beautiful the spot there was. She looked just like she has in recent photos with Hillary and Bonnie. Seemed well and happy. Was kind and gracious. She chatted with her friends during a large part of the movie. Sang a few bars here and there. Did not address the group. The ruby was rustic, beautiful setting, quirky. Mix of Indian, mountain and Balinese decor...and you know, there may be more. For now, Phyliss, taking a ferry to the highway...

My disc was rendered unplayable recently and I'm hoping like crazy to get my hands on a replacement. Does anyone have a DVD they'd be willing to duplicate and forward at my expense?

Only a minute and a half but interesting. The Isle of Wight piece I'm very familiar with but hadn't seen in awhile. It's very moving and terrifying at spots. The guy who popped in on Joni was someone she knew from her Matala days. She got spooked and was really uncomfortable about how it all played out but she addressed the crowd, regain her composure and brought things back around. An important little chunk of Joni history, that one.

She was sitting "in the garden" as Sasha working at the restaurant called it. Initially we were all assigned to different tables, but we all met at the restaurant the night before the dinner and were able to ask Sasha to be seated together as close to Joni as possible. She put us at a table near Ray of Ray's Dad's Cadillac, outside on the porch overlooking the garden. > > There were friends of Joni's and local people there in addition to us handful of JMDLers. Joni came just as the buffet opened. As I walked to the buffet, she walked by me going to her seat. After getting food and eating a little, I saw Joni was talking to people so I went to talk with her too. > > There were people who had photos of Joni from 1971 that she hadn't seen before. She said they were taken about when she moved to BC. It was cool to hear her talk about that time. She was talking about a guy in the photo who was living a gay lifestyle and later was realize he wasn't gay but was assumed gay for his mannerisms. It was an interesting story. > > I had a crystal from Hot Springs, AR for her.

Marianne suggested I write it. I would have known about the event if Marianne hadn't told me. In addition to my journal, I also had a gift I got for Marianne. Joni signed both. I told her Marianne teaches school and couldn't be at the event, and when Joni signed what I got her (can't say what because it is a surprise!) she left out an 'n' in Marianne's name so she corrected it by writing the 'n' in and then putting an X by it saying since Marianne is a teacher she'd grade the spelling as wrong. Joni was so funny! Cassy took my picture with Joni, and then I moved on to let others have a chance to talk with Joni. > > We sat in chairs next to her at the movie outside at the amphitheater. She was on her old couch Georgio had brought in for her. She had given him the couch because it reminded her too much of her old boyfriend. She was joking about it with him. She had her dog Bella Lagossi with her. Cute Jack Russell type. We could hear her singing along with herself and commenting about things. > > At the end she thanked everybody for coming and went down near the stage for pictures and to visit with people.
