I loved Joni's music, too and she was fantastic (as was James). My one vivid memory from the show: at the time, Michael From Mountains was getting the most airplay from her first album in Boston. There was a request from the audience for her to play it and, after a little fumbling, she confessed that she couldn't remember the tuning and thus apologetically declined to play it. It was a little surprising since that was her first underground "hit".

My boyfriend and I were awestruck. Joni spoke to us and for us, and I wanted to be just like her. Songs from the first two albums. "I think I understand, fear is like a wilderland.." I remember James, too!

It seems like yesterday.
