NEWSOM CITY LIMITS

People everywhere are always asking us, “what’s up with J-New? Has she made a new record? Will she play my birthday party?” All the time! Sometimes when we’re in the john, cuddled up to the urinal, and we hear “Do you know Joanna…?” So often, we leave people hanging. But not today! Come on, ask us! No, she won’t play your birthday party, but we can safely report: Joanna Newsom did ACL and tore that shit up right good! No, not that ACL, sportsfans - Austin City Limits, kimosabe! Hang your winter blues on the fact you can sit safe in your home this Saturday night, throw a log on your digital fireplace, curl up with a blankie, bend the rabbit ears on your television (still got one of those?) and tune into your public broadcasting channel (check local listings) and indulge. Revel in the fact that, after numerous appearances on late night television featuring short or abbreviated jams, ACL affords Joanna and her band to stretch out and play all songs as they were intended, regardless of length. It’s a virtual world and you’re gonna love this opportunity, we virtually guarantee it. Shit, even Fleet Foxes are psyched for this one; so much so, they insist their ACL performance be shown on the same episode as Joanna’s. Double bill, triple whammy! Come on, sneak a peak with this link. And thank us for making your Saturday night!

  • Joanna Newsom: Please name something that other people seem to care about, but that doesn’t matter at all to you, as well as something that you care about very much that seems unimportant to most other folks.
  • Miranda July: Part one: Alcohol. Part two: Errata. I’ve collected them since I was a little girl, probably because my parents run a publishing company. An erratum is a correction inserted into a book after publication. It’s a nice thing to collect because you can’t go after them, you just come upon them. In 25 years I’ve only found about 12.

I'm a Legend in My Own Mind: Joanna Newsom Q&A

Do you ever get starstruck?
Yeah. Mostly people I haven’t met freak me out. If I ever met Dolly Parton for sure, I would just not be able to say anything. I love her. I think there are a few other examples. I got really starstruck when I met Neil Young. I don’t even know if starstruck is the word, because it wasn’t because he was a star—it was because he was Neil Young. There’s a lot of people that I hope I never meet. There’s people that, it’s just so scary, these beings that you project so much magic on to, they’re such incredible artists you kind of don’t want them to do anything to like change the way you feel about their music. I’m kind of scared to meet Stevie Nicks ever. Not likely, mind you, not likely at all.

Really?
Not because I fear her doing anything to change my perception of her, but just because I feel like I’d say dumb shit, I’d walk away, I’d feel embarrassed. Her life is no different because she just met me, you know? There’s a lot of people like that. I’d rather just listen to their music. She’s the perfect example of that. You don’t want to go too deep.
