CC ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2015 00:09:23 -0600 From: Laura Stanley Subject: Really? Marianne and the rest of you danceless clowns, I didn't laugh at all at the video Bob made. It isn't how I feel. But I love her song Dancing Clown too including Joni dancing in her kitchen with her cat so I guess I'm in the minority. I can laugh at poking fun at Joni. For instance, I thought Kilauren's "Song to a Shithawk" was hilarious, and she was glad I got it. I almost woke my family up laughing at that one. But I couldn't muster even a chuckle at Bob's video. Laughter isn't something one can predict. It just happens. I wish I could have laughed at Bob's video, but it didn't bring me even a smile. I thought, "really?" the whole way through. Now I'm smiling because I wasn't smiling. It's sort of a funny awkward place to be in the minority. It wasn't offensive to me, but if it was I would have appreciated Bob's apology just in case it was. Bob is a great guy even if he doesn't get Dancing Clown and Love Has Many Faces, both of which I think are a lot of fun and very well done. I love Love Has Many Faces. The narrative, the history, the art, the way Joni uses her songs as paint to paint a dance that is "waiting to be danced." I want to dance it! But I guess I'll have to find a lurker to dance it with... Even just the hard cover of it is outstanding and feels good in my hands giving me the feeling that I'm important as the recipient of this incredible work of art. Thank you Joni!!! I appreciate you taking the time to create and release this cohesive, creative work, knowing it won't bring you a dime. Beautiful!
