I've never heard about this performance but I do know there is a book of poetry that Joni created and I believe hand printed a very few copies of for friends called 'Morning Glory on the Vine'. It has a poem in it entitled 'Penelope Wants to F**k the Sea' (the asterisks are for those who may get their Joni mail at work and/or have filters that auto-delete mail with certain words in them). I had the privilege of actually seeing one of these rara avis when Leslie Mixon visited Seattle several years ago and was kind enough to bring one with her and let me peruse it. (Natasha, if you're out there, I miss you.) I believe there's someone else on the list who has a copy of this book. Mark E in Seattle
