I hope Joni hasn't shot herself in the foot again. I'll bet she's mad about her BSN 
appearance on the show, which was stuck at the end (probably because they had to clear 
everything else out for her orchestra) and followed an interview with a 
somebody-or-other actor. They tried to squeeze too much into that show. I hope Dave 
forgives her and invites her to do a show.

I've only heard Amelia so far from the new set -- sounded lovely and well-orchestrated 
to me (and very well sung). But I'll admit I am not too musically sophisticated (never 
listen to classical music), Joni, jazz and Philip Glass are as high-brow as I get. But 
let's remember: this is a POP album and should be evaluated in that context.
