[Wendy J ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue, 15 Dec 1998 10:39:52 -0800 From: Elaine Bean Subject: MM: looking for emil address Dana - would you please forward my request to the MM list, since I am no longer on it? I know some people on that list know Chris and might have the information I need. I'm looking for either a phone number or e-mail address for Chris Snyder - - does anyone know it? I'd appreciate any help. Please respond to me at bean.neu.edu. Thank you. Elaine ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Dec 1998 16:04:39 +0000 (GMT) From: Wendy J Subject: MM: Did anyone tape NPR/Patty interview?? Help! I'm trying to track down a copy of the interview with Patty that aired on NPR Dec. 13. Did anyone tape it, per chance? If so, I'd be happy to send you a blank tape if you'll kindly tape it for me. If so, please email me directly! Now, about Patty's tour: I saw her when she played here in Washington, D.C. about a month ago and she was great! My only disappointment was that she played only ONE song from Living With Ghosts: Sweet Lorraine. One added treat, however, was a great rendition of a Patsy Cline song during her second encore.. (I think it was the song Crazy, if my memory serves me). It was interesting to see the variety of people there: from 30 and 40somethings to 18 and 20 year-olds. (I myself fall somewhere in between). She looked somewhat uncomfortable and shy up onstage, but made eye contact with lots o'folks in the audience and smiled a few times. Her band kicked ass (especially that whacky bass player) but since Living with Ghosts is the only patty album I have (I just borrowed Flaming Red and love it!) I tended to savor the moments when she was left alone on stage with just her guitar. Anyways, that's my 2-cents worth!

I think they also give you the option of ordering a tape of it. NPR is at http://www.npr.org/ Rachel :D ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Dec 1998 20:21:11 EST From: UMCaner74@aol.com Subject: MM: FOR DANA!
