I shouldn't be doing this, I have a ton of work, but...does anyone else think the person Patty's singing to on "Goodby" committed suicide? 2 lines make me think so: "And if the pain ends when you die" and "You can't make somebody see, all their beauty from within, sometimes they just look away." That would be 2 suicide songs on 1 album.

If the song is autobiographical, I could guess she is writing about her former husband, but it could be any one from her past. I love this song. When I first heard it at Somerville last May before the album came out it was just beautiful. It is like a different song with the band, but still beautiful. I put it on a mix tape of female singer-songwriters I made last week to share with friends at work along with Christina and Mary- my 3 faves on the new album. Dar Williams, Catie Curtis, Cheryl Wheeler, Christine Lavin, Eileen McGann, Kate McDonnell, Joni Mitchell and Judy Collins. Everyone I know is oblivious- I try to open their ears. Hopeless, really.

I've relistened to several of Patty's songs with the interpretations I've seen here on the Mishers mailing list, and have been able to hear the songs with a whole new perspective. And you know what? They all make sense. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: MM: MM- Good bye Author: at internet Date: 9/15/98 4:45 PM No, I think she wrote it about a former one true love who she is still not over even tho it is a couple of years gone by.

I could see it that way, but prefer not to. People hurt each other the way they break up- that is how I see that- is she going to feel pain about it for the rest of her life? Will she ever feel better? You bond with someone enough to marry, or spend years with them and then you cut them out of your life with divorce or a breakup and replacement person. Could we have used some kinder words instead? Some better way. What was the news? It could have been the news of his suicide, or the news that he was with someone else or gone. etc. I never thought of it as suicide until you brought it up today. Hope not.

Indiana University of PA in case anyone was wondering. i've been a fan of patty griffin for about 3 years. i saw her live with jann arden and billy mann and i was completely blown away. i've only been able to see her once more at the lilith fair last year. so if any of you know anything about her doing a show anywhere in PA, let me know. please. i guess that's all for now. i'm just glad i figured out how to do this. oh--in response to that discussion about "Goodbye", i thought it was about someone who died. not necessarily a suicide, but then again, sometimes i don't think about it all that much. hmmm. . . thanks for making me think, guys. have yourselves a lovely day! nancy ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Sep 1998 18:51:33 -0400 From: Dana Subject: MM: [Fwd: WPKN Benefit Concert - Cheryl Wheeler] no Patty content HMinot@aol.com wrote: > > WPKN 89.5 FM PRESENTS > a benefit concert: > CHERYL WHEELER > Thursday, September 17th > Edmond Town Hall Theater > 45 Main Street, Newtown CT > (at the flagpole) > > Show Time: 8:00 p.m. (doors open at 7:30) > > TICKETS $15 (general admission) > > Tickets are available at: > > Cool Stuff, 321 Boston Post Rd, Milford CT (203)874-2827 > Sally's Place, 190 Main St, Westport CT (203)454-0303 > Disc & Dat, 111 High Ridge Rd, Stamford CT (203)323-0537 > The Pantry, 2 Mechanic St, New Haven CT (203)787-0392 > Grand Union, 5 Queen St, Newtown CT (203)270-7270 > Trash American Style, 12 Mill Plain Rd, Danbury CT (203)792-1630 > New Morning Natural Foods, Middle Quarter Mall / Main St. South, Woodbury CT > (203)263-4868 > > for further information, > call WPKN Radio weekdays 9 to 5 at (203)331-9756 > > The doors open at 7:30 p.m. and the show starts promptly at 8:00.

Park in the rear and enter through the front. If you like Patty, you probably would like Cheryl also- acoustic folk- this concert is Thursday in Newtown, CT- it will be an intimate venue and undoubtedly wonderful. I have seen her twice this summer and am going to this one also. Anyone in CT, NY or MA that can make it- find me and say hi.

I can't be in all these places!! Sometimes Los Angeles is the last place I want to be........ Well, if you have the chance to go wherever you are, enjoy. A live experience is almost spiritual, better than any recording can supply. carol ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V2 #272 *********************************
