TOUR DATES C. SIBERRY PATRON OF THE ARTS ________________________________ A. WEBSTORE OPEN TEMPORARILY ________________________________ WEDNESDAY MAY 29 TO SUNDAY JUNE 2. (5 days) Although our web-store has been closed as we are in transition, there have been so many requests for the new 'Anthology-LOVE IS EVERYTHING' and 'City' that we are going to open temporarily to fill the gap until the move is made. WHAT DO WE MEAN TRANSITION? We are in the process of transferring our web-store to an outside party to handle order fulfillment (stuff mailers). It has been much fun/party-central at SHEEBA doing all the orders in-house. But the party is over. The neighbours were complaining about all the soft music. We will miss the direct contact with you all, but it is for the better. I think I scared some people calling them about a declined credit card. The FULL store should be open within the month. FYI 'City' is ONLY available through the website. 'Anthology' is available in stores in North America and soon the UK. TO ORDER THROUGH THE TEMPORARY STORE http://www.janesiberry.com/catINDEX.php ONLY UNTIL SUNDAY PLEASE. ________________________________ B.

Patty is a stupendous artist, with a fantastic, heart- breaking voice. Her first album, "Living With Ghosts" is a must-have. It started out as a series of demos, but got released as it was -- just her and her guitar, and that stunning voice. The follow-up, "Flaming Red" was a rockier, more anthemic affair, with a full band, but it still had some of the lyrical tenderness. And then came "Silver Bell" Or not. Interscope, her label, decided it wasn't commercial enough, and refused to release it. Patty parted company from Interscope shortly after. "1000 Kisses" is her first album since then, and to say it's been eagerly anticipated would be an understatement. That's part of the problem. "1000 Kisses" is something, after all this wait, of a disappointment. Patty has been busy touring, and various bootlegs show her in a prolific mode, with scores of great songs being performed up and down the States. With "1000 Kisses", we get 3 covers included in the 39 minutes, and I can't help but feel a little short-changed. Sure, you still have the great voice, but her lyrical talents are all part of it. The album starts off with the brilliant "Rain", which has to rate among her best ever songs -- beautifully written, arranged and performed. After that, the album stumbles and struggles to find his balance: "Chief" is an innocuous anecdotal song, "Making Pies" (a fave among Patty fans, it hs to be said) somewhat better. Only "Nobody's Crying" comes close to the opener, however, and the superior dinner- theatre cabaret of "Tomorrow Night" (I only read this was a cover recently -- I may be wrong) is only passable, before the giant cheesiness of "Mil Besos" hits in. This is sung in Spanish, and reminds me of the anodyne EP's my parents, inexplicably, used to listen to in the early 60's, the covers all adorned with serenading toreadors and ladies with long eyelashes. I have actually found this track unlistenable, and this is the bottom line: My first Patty Griffin album where I actually skip songs. Not everyone finds it that bad -- the Patty Griffin list was buzzing with dialectic when this came out, and it was interesting to see that a dedicated list (where, I've found, the fans tend to put the "fan" back into "fanatical") could be home to such dissent. A disappointment, though, IMHO. Big time. adam k.

I think I seriously confused my father when, only a few guitar notes into the song, I exclaimed "Jeff Buckley! Hallelujah!" Mostly unrelatedly, Armin Shimmerman (Quark/Buffy's Principal) was listed in the opening credits, but I didn't spot him onscreen during the episode.

Unfortunately, I don't have any details. Something has been strange about this concert from the beginning. First, there is no mention of it on Happy's web site, Second, the Tin Angel has a different band booked for the 10 pm show (this way they don't lose out if the 7pm show is cancelled ) if you know what I mean and Third, Project Lo band has been busy touring in Europe. Anyway, if I find out more, I'll let everyone know. BTW, I will probably be going to the Projekt Festival tomorrow night (Friday). Look for a short guy with a beard and glasses. Hope to see some other Ectos there. later, tom At 5/23/02 07:15 PM Thursday, Datura Child wrote: > I just got an email from ticketweb saying the show at the Tin Angel has been called off :-( Anyone have details? > >~Megan > > >_________________________________________________________________ >Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 23 May 2002 23:12:42 -0400 From: Michael Curry Subject: Fwd: the reputation update News on Elizabeth Elmore's current band..... >Subject: the reputation update >Date: Thu, 23 May 2002 15:48:41 -0500 > >Hey everyone - short update...
