I was there! At the Hammerstein Ballroom in... 2000? Top balcony, of course. It was a taping of a TBS special, so it was impossible to get any closer...

Stevie isn't stupid enough to be tempted into covering a Joni Mitchell song. Many dare to try, but very few pull it off. So if your name is not Judy Collins or Tom Rush, stay away. Or, in the case of Crosby Stills and Nash, you need to totally revamp the song so that it can actually be sung by mortals.
