( curiously though I like all three ) Patty's Christian overtones...I dont know, all I know that Christ she's damn good ( sorry unintentional blaspheme ) Religion in songs is just another theme used by songwriters, it doesn't mean that they are over religious any more than Nick Caves dark murderous themes make him the next Hannibal Lecter Steve ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 02 Sep 1998 06:11:40 PDT From: "Sean Palen" Subject: MM: stubborn dream I know, I know, the liner says "dream you've dreamed" in Poor Mans House, but due to the fact that I am stubborn and like the line "drink you drink" , I think maybe she changed the lyric when she recorded, it happens all the time. Though this is probably a completely false argument, listen close and you'll hear a slight "K" sound. It's all in perception and I've never been accused of actually seeing what I'm told to.

To me it meant that every dream she'd had while in that poor man's house was smashed to bits but she survived anyway... but I suppose part of the enjoyment of the music is applying your own interpretation. Plus it's always interesting to hear misheard lyrics - - "Excuse me while I kiss this guy!" - ---Sean Palen wrote: I know, I know, the liner says "dream you've dreamed" in Poor Mans House, but due to the fact that I am stubborn and like the line "drink you drink" , I think maybe she changed the lyric when she recorded, it happens all the time.

I'm new to the mad mission list and just wanted to say hi! I just got my tix to Patty's show (with the Nields) in Philly at the Keswick Theatre! 6th row center! I'm really excited. This will be my 5th Patty show!!! Can't wait! Anyone else from the list going? Also wanted to say that Flaming Red is my favorite CD of 1998 (by far I might add)!

Amen, she sure did! And yes, the tape is great. Don't look for "studio quality" sound. But Patty more than makes up for any shortcomings in the sound quality with great songs delivered in her usual "in your face" style. A must for us all!! ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 3 Sep 1998 08:39:24 +1000 From: "COLE,Iain" Subject: RE: MM: Guitarists > What is Powow or ICQ, I do play guitar, however I am very unfamiliar > with technology, that is why I go acoustic with a nice pickup(Taylor). > > Sean > ICQ is an internet program which allows you to "chat" one on one or with (i think) up to 4 people simultaneously. It has several modes.. online, ie everybody who has your number can see that you're online; invisible, ie, you're online but nobody can see you unless you initiate the conversation; and a couple of variations on that theme. it allows you to pass files to somebody else while you're chatting with them. It's available from www.mirabilis.com and is freeware. PowWow is a similar program and is available from www.tribal.com Another good site to visit for software is Tucows. Both programs have their merits and drawbacks. If you're connecting to the net via a firewall, you will need special permissions from your webmaster/administrator to set them up. If you don't receive that permission, then neither product will work. regards, Iain oh.. and (unfortunately) I don't play guitar. Does a childhood fling with the bagpipes count? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 02 Sep 1998 19:05:26 -0700 From: Eric Subject: MM: Christian Hi, There has been no mention that Patty's Mother's family was French Canadian. That means Catholic, VERY Catholic. I would suggest that no, she is by no means a Christian singer. She simply has many childhood memories that contain religious themes. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 2 Sep 1998 18:28:37 -0400 (EDT) From: "Stephen V. Gilmore" Subject: MM: Bill Clinton and the Mad Mission list Now that you've read this far and haven't deleted this post, let me offer all mishers a sincere apology. Apparently, you don't appreciate my attempt at making humor about Bill Clinton out of an earlier post from a roommmate of a misher. To reacquaint you mishers: an angry roommate of a misher living in New Hampshire posted: "Why do all of you spend so much time posting back and forth about Patty Griffin? She's only a freakin' musician. Well, turn off your computers, go out and take a walk, and talk to some real people. Maybe some of you will even get lucky and get laid." (His words, not mine--I don't use language such as that) In any event, sorry for taking up your valuable time and space with my attempts to be funny. I couldn't resist the opportunity to make humor of his remark when it presented itself. As summer ends and the leaves turn FLAMING RED, enjoy yourselves, and happy listening to all mishers. mea culpa, Steve Gilmore ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V2 #259 *********************************
