After we kids were grown, my mother gave us each a bag of stuff that she had saved for years - report cards, birth announcements and baby pictures, results of music exams, hand-drawn cards for special occasions, and so on. (This reminds me of Tom Waits' "A soldier's things.") I still have this stuff and am so grateful to my mum for doing that. Most of my report cards say "Catherine should participate in class more." Yup. Things never change! And handwriting was always my worst mark. I've also saved a lot of stuff from my kids and will do the same for them when/if either of them ever moves out (ha! these days? most kids can't afford it). Sometimes we take out the things they wrote and the drawings they made from kindergarten and grade one and have a good laugh. I can't believe there are fifty boxes of Joni's stuff though. That's a shitload o' shit for some old guy to hang onto for so many years. I hope Joni is paying for the shipping costs because I betcha he's some old guy living on a pension. >________________________________ > From: "Bob.Muller@Fluor.com" >To: joni >Sent: Tuesday, August 20, 2013 1:11:17 PM >Subject: Re: New Library item: Mitchell's 'stuff' could end up on Storage Wars > > >Not sure if this guy is trying to be funny - seems like he is but I didn't >laugh - but I think he's clouded by some bitterness over Joni's >statements. > >But I can relate - I moved out of my parents house, and the boxes of my >stuff that were left behind were not MY belongings but rather boxes of >greeting cards, letters, pictures, school projects, things that my Mom >saved as keepsakes.

Besides the fact that you'll get a full night of live Joni goodness, the 4-piece band will include Larry Goldings on keyboards (who has a couple of Joni covers to his name) and Peter Erskine on drums. Peter has of course played with Joni on several recordings of hers. For more info on the gig - might be a fun minifest for you Los Angelinos - here the scoop: http://goo.gl/FrsYO5 Bob - ------------------------------------------------------------ The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain proprietary, business-confidential and/or privileged material.
