>>And after all, when the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducts you, is it so damned hard to show up and graciously receive the award? Isn't it a little odd that joni arranges to receive the damned award when she is videotaping a concert to be sold to promote a tour? <<
from what i recall, joni was po'd at them for snubbing her for (? years) that she was eligible...so that is why she didn't show up, & then graham showed up with it in a paper bag...i don't see joni as calculating but i do see her as someone who won't hold back on her opinions (thus the award in the paperbag)...she also did not show up for a grammy when she had just been reunited with kilauren...i'm not sure that these biz award things are all that meaninful to her...as opposed to those like the toronto hommage last year that is so much more 'artful' imo... ******************************************** Kate Bennett: www.katebennett.com Sponsored by Polysonics/Atlantis Sound Labs Over the Moon- "bringing the melancholy world of twilight to life almost like magic" All Music Guide ********************************************
