Yeah Brian! Jon had a regular weekly residency at the club Largo in LA. I see he's there on 3/25 www.largo-la.com... He rarely goes out on tour.

This track is amazing, but it has more endings than the last Lord of the Rings movie.

@carmichael my 15 year old car and its stock radio is pre Bluetooth and pre aux so a few years back i wired in an FM modulator that overrides the antenna to play prom any device. Now i open the ash tray and flip a red toggle switch . Instead of something James Bond like happening, it plays FMU (which is mostly always) and I tell my passenger NEVER EVER touch the red switch or they will be ejected (one way or another).

@Brendan: Nice! Slight tangent but I was rewatching "The Empire Strikes Back" and noticed something. When Luke is in his X-Wing and talking to R2-D2 just to the left of his computer display there is an AM/FM car radio with cassette deck on it's side. So maybe he had Bluetooth too.

Nothing wrong with this Joni cover, but "Folkal Point" is an AWFUL band name. Maybe it seemed like a good idea in 1972...
