(a belated Jewel/Patty thang) adamk said: And no, I have never, while trying to describe Patty's music, ever even CONSIDERED saying "She's like Jewel". I'd just as rather say "She's a singer/songwriter with a guitar", which is a far more accurate place to start. thank you adam.....the two have never enterd my mind in the same thought. s. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 26 Apr 2002 12:57:22 -0400 From: "Luca, Joseph" Subject: MM: Patty in today's Boston Globe Howdy--- A couple of items in today's paper about Patty... First, a review of "1000 Kisses" (a lot of time spent explaining Patty's recent label woes): http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/116/living/New_on_disc+.shtml . And there's a little heads-up piece, too: Go! Weekend (By Hayley Kaufman, Globe Staff) Today HUGS AND KISSES: She may live in New Orleans now, but to her legion of local fans, Patty Griffin will always be a New Englander at heart. The celebrated folk-rock chanteuse headlines at the Somerville Theatre tonight in what's sure to be a warm homecoming after two years away from the Hub. On tour behind her latest CD, ''1000 Kisses,'' Griffin performs at 8, along with special guest opener Michael Fracasso. Tickets $21 day of show. 55 Davis Square, Somerville. Call 617-628-3390 or 617-931-2000. Finally, of related interest, there is a piece about Garbage, which alludes to Shirley Manson's invective about Interscope: http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/116/living/Manson_Sick_fed_up_and_grateful +.shtml That's it. Look forward to seeing some of you tonight at Patty's Somerville show. And for anyone who'll be in Davis Square early, there are plenty of restaurants (try Redbone's, but get there early!) and coffee shops... Ciao, Joe ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 26 Apr 2002 13:02:08 -0500 From: "Rob Hanning" Subject: MM: Patty review in Playboy Thought the list might want to see this, as perhaps not everyone gets this magazine for its music reviews...

From the June issue of Playboy:

"If adults want rock written for them, all they need to do is listen Patty Griffin. She's better known as a songwriter than as a singer, but 1000 Kisses (ATO) might change that. Her bluesy voice and brilliant phrasing on Lonnie Johnson's Tomorrow Night and Springsteen's Stolen Car are powerful, but it's the original songs that will grip you." Dave Marsh

He rates the disc a 9 , but not all their other reviewers are so fond of it. A 6 from Robert Christgau, 8 from Vic Garbarini, 5 from Nelson George, and an 8 from Charles M. Young. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail.

I am now the proud owner of 4 tickets. It's been too long since she was here, and I am SO glad she's coming to the Great American Music Hall--it's a fabulous, intimate venue that will be PERFECT for her voice and gig. I feel fortunate. Now the big question is whether Don will drag his ass here. Maybe we can get him drunk and get him invited by Patty to sing with her on stage. Now, that would be something to behold.

Previously, Jupiter has reported a drop in cd sales around college campuses. Here's a brief online article on the study. http://zdnet.com.com/2100-11-522383.html?legacy=zdnn ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 26 Apr 2002 15:58:06 -0700 From: MH Subject: Re: MM: Top 10 Bands/Artists I Hate > What about athletes who think they can act or have their own talk shows? > That topic would be so large, it would require it's own dedicated discussion group...far too extensive to discuss here.

Hi, I just joined the list afer a wonderful and amazing person by the name of Jen sent me the 2 "Love From My Lips" cds. She'd said I may be able to find somebody here willing to send me a copy of Silver Bell. If anybody here would be so kind, I'd be so greatful you'd be scared of me. Wait, no, that sounds bad. I'd just be really greatful. I can send anybody a blank and money for postage, or if they're interested in a trade, I have a lotta stuff available, though not really any Patty stuff. I'd be happy to send anybody a list, so please feel free to drop me a line. Also I went to see her do a free show/signing at the HMV in Cambridge a couple of weeks ago. I've thrown up some pics for everybody to see... http://bestpitch.com/truthserum/patty.html Thanks a bunch! Jon Yahoo!

I keep seeing people mention Love from My Lips. Can anyone make me a copy of it? If you're interested in trade, I have a bunch of Prince stuff, both audio & video; as well as a plethora of material, again both audio & video, of that single-named chick singer whose name has caused so much commotion here lately. The Prince stuff runs up through the early '90s, and then after that he really lost me... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Looking forward to more Midwest concert dates...

(Olympia would be better..) Just take a left when leaving Portland. It's simple. Really. She could play at my house.
