June Link Roundup

June was a busy month. We came back to Winnipeg for a week, then drove to Washington state where we camped, saw the Columbia River (roll on…), spent a day in Seattle, and, most importantly, saw Joni Mitchell perform her first headline concert in 20 years—at sundown, in a natural amphitheatre overlooking a gorge. I’ve been to a lot of shows in my life, and there’s something different about seeing an artist who’s lived a long and sometimes difficult life perform songs she’s been refining for decades, surrounded by friends she’s been playing with for years. I guess that’s a quality I’m drawn towards when it comes to the music we play on the show, too. The first few videos I’ve picked for this roundup reflect that quality.
