Joni Mitchell's LA homecoming: a glorious night that no one there will ever forget

For the 17,500 people going to the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on Saturday night, there was only one thing consuming them. How to get there. Would they drive (even people who work for the Bowl encourage you not to), would they park and ride (how does that even work?), or would they Uber it (the smart choice for many, even if a successful pick-up after the show could be chaotic)?

This logistical and existential question was all the more important because that night’s show at the Bowl was going to be truly historic. Memorable, obviously. Moving, certainly. And somewhat surprising. Joni Mitchell’s concert on Saturday (there was a second night on Sunday) had been one of the city’s most anticipated shows of the year.
