<<the only new song she performed was "the Crazy Cries of Love" and i was hoping to hear "Harlem in Havana" and or "Man from Mars" live at the time.>>
She did Facelift too, Blair, but not at the Cole Field House show that you saw (that's on its way to you ;~)). But I think you make a good point. MfM would have been great to hear live, I wasn't expecting her to do HiH because of the studio complexities, the overlayered vocals, guitars, etc. <<The other thing to consider is that she had an alotted time to perform and wanted to keep it familiar?>> I think too that she was sticking to songs she has played a lot live; this tour was put together late in the game & there was not a lot of rehearsal time. And Joni would not want to perform underrehearsed, I don't think. As the tour progressed, she was able to add some numbers (DJRD, Song For Sharon, BSN). I don't think it was familiarity as much as songs that she felt she & the band could do well. Bob NP: Teddy Edwards, "I'm Not Your Fool Anymore"
