For those who have been with us less than 3-4 months (roundabout) We had a tape dubbing tree that made her concert songs accessible to the masses of MMers. I think we could probably get another one going but I have neither the time nor the precious "second brain cell" to organize such a widespread feat. Any suggestions? :-) John ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 03:32:22 -0500 From: "Michael C.

Other candidates include: LWG (of course) Whatever - Aimee Mann 100% Fun - Matthew Sweet Bittersweet - Kim Richey Lisa Germano - happiness (if I really lose it) Alisa Carroll - Then & Now After all, why am I up at this hour if I'm not out of my mind depressed.

I was kinda surprised to not find any David Wilcox on anyone's list. Ok, well, I guess he's on one now...his new CD is great! Oh, and the bit about "Wear Sunscreen"..... the speech attributed to Kurt Vonnegut is actually an newspaper article written by a woman who wondered what she would say in a commencement address.

When in emotional pain, I get uplifted by, Tada, good old fashioned Christian Hymns, Leaning on the Everlasting Arms, What a Friend We Have In Jesus etc... When I need to relax I listen to Loreena McKennitt, anything especially To Drive the Cold Winter Away......

I made the Rarities tape last year and have the master copy. Last year's "treeing" was incredibly time consuming and expensive, and, seeing that I just moved AND started school again(can anyone say stressful?), I don't know that I would have the time to do it again. Depending on the number of responses I get from you guys, I'll decide whether I can do it again. If I can't do it, I'd be more than willing to send a direct dub to someone who can. Sound good? So, e-mail me if you're interested w/ Rarities in the subject. Thanks, Jen :) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 11:56:23 -0600 From: rblack1@io.com (Ronda Blacksher) Subject: MM: Rarities Master Jen, I'm interested in the tape - also might be interested in helping to produce copies, but expenses would need be paid by the receiving party in advance, yes?

Hello all, Sharyn here. When I heard that our little Ruby Maroon would be playing in Philly on 4/20, I purchased tickets right away. Now it turns out that there is a much more convenient date for me (4/23) a Friday night so I don't have to worry about driving back home to New Jersey and dragging myself in to work. (I don't work too well after late nights). My dilemma is this. Painted Bride (has anyone else had trouble with the woman who answers the phone????) refuses to switch my tickets and suggested I called the management company. The management company in charge of running the show told me to call Painted Bride. I told them that I did. After being treated so rudely by the woman at Painted Bride on two separate occasions (I could go into detail, but I'll spare you all), I told the management company I wanted to cancel my tickets and of course, the reply was that I couldn't. Does anyone know why switching tickets would be such an unreasonable request or how I can do this? Also, does anyone know if Patty will be solo or with the band at Painted Bride (God forbid the Painted Bride would be able to tell me) Does anyone know when Patty will start recording her 3rd CD? (don't tell me the 4th-- I know technically it's the 4th). RESPONSES TO THESE AND OTHER QUESTIONS CAN BE E-MAILED TO ME AT FLAKEYBIRD@AOL.COM THANKS, EVERYONE. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 17:12:46 -0500 (EST) From: shoes Subject: MM: Re: rarities tape hello all! is anyone out there willing to dub the rarities tape for me? i could send blank tape and pre-paid envelope to mail back to me if any kind soul would be willing to do the footwork.... :)thanks muchly, chris ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 21:16:55 -0500 From: "Donna Littell" Subject: MM: Lights Out Great question.

Is there a line in one of her songs that just gets ya every time? For me, my personal favorite is in "Every Little Bit" when she says, "You left open the window to the morning and the winter walked in." To me, that line is just pure poetry plain and simple. I'm a real stickler for great lyrics (which is why I LOVE Tori Amos) that make you dig deeper for several meanings. Patty has wonderful metaphors and clever personifications that really speak to me on several levels and inspire me as a listener and a writer. Equally important is how expressive she is when singing these lines. So why don't the rest of you all share your favorite Patty lines/lyrics...I'd love to hear them.... -cristina ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 31 Mar 1999 23:09:33 EST From: JohnRN24@aol.com Subject: MM: concert page???

Refering to the kids in the Poor Man's House: "They walk to school with the soles of their shoes worn out." I think they're souls are worn out too.

Is there a line in > one of her songs that just gets ya every time? > hard question. i'd have to say my favorite patty lyrics are the first few lines in "poor man's house." "you know you've done enough when every bone is sore, you know you've prayed enough when you don't ask anymore, you know you're coming to some kind of understanding, when every dream you've dreamed has passed and you're still standing." i live by that. it not as deep and metaphoric as a lot of her stuff, but it's beautiful. sometimes i think some things shouldn't be hidden, they should be simple. simply beautiful. : ) jaime ------------------------------ End of mad-mission-digest V3 #87 ********************************
