Joni Mitchell Critiques Trump in LA Concert

Joni Mitchell made a powerful return to the stage at the Hollywood Bowl, performing for the first time in Los Angeles in 24 years and using her platform to criticize former President Donald Trump. During her three-hour concert, she addressed the audience of 17,000, expressing her desire to vote despite being Canadian, and responding to an audience member's insult towards Trump with the phrase, 'F**k Donald Trump!' This political moment resonated strongly with fans, who applauded enthusiastically. Mitchell performed a mix of classic hits and deeper cuts, including 'Dog Eat Dog,' where she ad-libbed a reference to Trump, and was joined by notable musicians like Brandi Carlile and Marcus Mumford. The concert marked a significant milestone in Mitchell's recovery from a brain aneurysm in 2015, showcasing her enduring talent and relevance in the music world. Her commentary adds to the ongoing trend of musicians publicly opposing political figures, particularly Trump.
