Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I can find some of it? After listening to her songs, I would be very interested in reading some of her poems.

Criticism is necessary for improvement. If everything's great why change anything? It all depends on the attitude in which it is given.

I finally have my account all cleared out again, so get back to me. =) On Friday before I left for Lollapalooza, I received five packages of tapes in the mail. So if you sent stuff out last week, I'm sure that's when I got it. :> (Didn't even get any mail over the weekend.. the people at the post office are pretty psychic.. I must say) So now I have 5-6 sets of 1-2 tapes and a few sets of 4-6 tapes and 3-4 sets of 20-30 tapes to copy. Lets just say that the smaller sets will go out sooner and this will take me a while. :) BTW.. Lollapalooza rocked!

I was a branch on the original Seattle tape tree, and had a large no-show count on my leaves. So I will take on six additional leaves. There's no fair way to do this other than to say I'll take the first six who email me, and it's no damn fair trying to change your system time stamp. We'll use the usual rules--I far prefer tape trades to just copying, but will not turn anyone down for lack of anything to trade.

I have to respond to this very diverse list. First of all, how old are you? Second, were is the Slippery Noodle Inn? My first rock concert ever was in Boston in 1966 to see the Paul Butterfield Blues Band. He had two great guitarist play for him. Maybe you can help me remember the guitar players name. The one guitarist was Mike Bloomfield. Both played that night. At a club in New York City called Steve Paul's Scene I saw Buddy Guy as an opening act for jazz vocalist Betty Carter. That was in 1967. The club was this tiny place in a basement and was in sleezy Times Square. Probably held 150 people. Some of the bands that have played there, you may have heard of. Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix. Can you imagine seeing them with only 150 people. I also saw a rare band, Lothar & the Hand People there. Have you ever listened to Room Full of Blues. Your list tells me you would like them.
