Ive never seen a Patty shirt but I imagine you could get any picture of Patty you had and have it put on a shirt if they didnt sell them, it would be cool if they sold them at her shows though. Has anyone heard if they sell them? I want one. Ill wait to hear if anything pops up. Bye for now.

It was GREAT! All Mishers who get a chance should see these two great singer-songwriters in their neck of the woods if they get a chance. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Oct 1998 22:54:44 EDT From: LWalshPGH@aol.com Subject: MM: Pittsburgh and Iodine do not mix!!!!!!! For all you MM'ers who are longing for the LWG days of just Patty and her Guitar, I have one word for you, Iodine. Last nights show in Pittsburgh explained it all when Patty came on stage to introduce the opening act and called them her "favorite band in the world." There name was "Iodine" and it was brutal. I have read numerous posts on this list about the ear piercing volumes of Patty shows around the country. Patty's sound guy was doing the sound for Iodine and he took pleasure in forcing everyone in attendance to put pieces of paper napkin in there ears, some people actually walked out. I witnessed the usual sound man for the venue plead with Patty's sound guy to turn it down. Not a chance. The usual sound guy then went and distributed ear plugs to some people he knew in the crowd. I think you would all agree that Patty's music would be classified somewhere in realm of adult contemporary. I am not happy with that title because I am not that old, but lets be realistic. I just have to wonder who in the record company would allow a Patty Griffin concert to be opened by a Seattle want-a- be grunge band from Nashville? Let me clarify Iodine's music for you. There were three of them. All very talented musicians. The music was typical "Nirvana" but four times to loud, (then again Nirvana was also loud.) I guess my point is we must listen and listen well to those words from Patty's mouth as she introduced this band. She said, "This is my favorite band in the world!" They actually were the studio musicians that played on Flaming Red. I have come to the realization that the type of musician I thought Patty was when I first bought LWG is truly not what her music is all about. Nothing is wrong with a little diversity, it is what it is...... I would take Patty alone with just her six string over almost any musician today. Add Iodine and you can keep it. Just My opinion! Larry. PS. For those of you concerned with what the set list was. She played 1.5 songs from LWG. The .5 accounted for the second worst part of my night when Patty and the band bastardized arguably my favorite song "Let Him Fly." When you have something perfect you never change it. Sorry for the venting. I would love to see your response Johnny. ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V2 #311 *********************************
