I listened to Woodstock first and loved it. The whole time I was thinking 'now THIS is the band that Joni should have done Travelogue with, subtle jazz-oriented colorful players, not that overbearing bombastic orchestra'...oh well, they sounded great. SO MUCH FUN to see Joni sincerely enjoying herself, sincerely soaking in the adotation and respect. All the other singers seemed to be having a great time and all sounded good as well. "This Rain, This Rain" immediately put me in the mind of Tom Waits' "What's He Building In There?" and songs of that ilk. I could see myself digging a whole record of that stuff, no synthesized sounds, all organic. What a great memory for you guys. Hope someone is there tonight.

You have made us feel like we are right there with you and I have been on the giddiest of highs (along with a few tears) every step of the way the past few days. I still have some catching up to do linkwise but was blown away by Joni's performances last night. That band. OH MY. I think the combination of the exceptionally stunning musicianship, love and spirits in the room absolutely lifted Joni up to the occasion. I thought she was just fantastic. I am so happy for Joni and for all of you who were there. Lesli has been calling me every other day saying "maybe we should just get on a plane and go." I got that phone call again today and said "oh hell yeah." Wish we could have been there but you really brought it all to us so incredibly well. It has been overwhelmingly wonderful!
