Joni is 82 today! A true pioneer.
Great to see her in better health, out and about, and even performing again.
If you looking for a good read on Joni, last year a really interesting take on her career came out by the great writer Ann Powers. It’s called “Traveling on the Path with Joni Mitchell”

Iron Maiden’s Steve Harris- in the new Maiden book called “Infinite Dreams” (comes out Oct 7th) says he was influenced by Genesis, Yes and Wishbone Ash.
For a band that helped define an entire metal genre, I didn’t expect that mix of bands to shape their sound.

Why do our legends that are still touring (McCartney, Dylan, Neil Young, Stones, Dead and Co etc. still allow whoever it is to charge so much for tickets? At this stage in their career, why don’t they just cover the cost of production and sell the tickets for as low as possible.
