Van Morrison, the original co-headliner of Bob Dylan's West Coast tour who had dropped out, will now rejoin Dylan and  his replacement, Joni Mitchell, for the dates, which will now be a triple bill, according to Laura Swanson of Polydor Records, Morrison's label.  "It's one big, happy family," Swanson said.  Sam Feldman, Mitchell's manager, confirmed the following changes in the dates (as of press time): May 14 is back on in Vancouver at the GM Arena, two nights (May 16, 17) are now scheduled for The Gorge in Washington state and only one (May 19) in the San Francisco Bay Area, in San Jose.  After the two L.A. dates (May 21, 22), the final show will be at the Pond in Anaheim on May 23.  Mitchell's performance time for all the shows will be an hour and she will be accompanied by all or part of The Brian Blade Fellowship.  Brian Blade is a noted jazz drummer who has accompanied Mitchell before.
