Dave ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 6 May 2001 18:18:55 EDT From: FlamingRed74@cs.com Subject: MM: Yay for OUR Patty!!! Hey guys, For anyone that missed Austin City Limits last night.. I feel the need to give you a little review since there have been absolutely no ACTUAL Patty concerts to review.. First, let me say that Patty looked very nice (in my opinion) last night. Her hair was as usual, a beautiful red.. but much more tame looking than normal. She was wearing a nice dress with her "standard" knee high boots that look so PERFECT on her. :-) She started her set with Sweet Lorraine (wow, I NEVER thought I'd hear this one on TV!!). It started out solo, with the band kicking in right as the 2nd verse started. With the exception of a new keyboardist, she had all of the same guys in her band.. and in my opinion that's a GOOD thing! They sounded great on the show last night, it's amazing what a good mixing job can do for the quality of the sound. Sweet Lorraine sounded superb with the band. Doug played an electric mandolin, and played some beautiful harmony parts that I thought really added a nice texture to the song. 2nd song of the set was a full band version of Perfect White Girls. I have to say at first listen I wasn't too keen on it, but the 2nd time I listened I was immediately thinking.. *DAMN that's badass sounding*! Patty plays an electric guitar, instead of the acoustic that we are all so accustomed to hearing on this one. Once again, the band did a wonderful job of making the song really come through, instead of masking the passion of the song when it's played solo. If I recall correctly, Tony was 3rd.. which seemed a bit toned down from the FR version. I believe Doug's guitar had the same sound, but wasn't quite as up front in the mix as it normally is. One More Girl was next, and as the rest..was a full band version. I love this song, and judging by the reaction of the crowd, so did they! I sure hope Silver Bell does get released, because it would be a shame for the studio version of this song to not see the light of day. Before and after this song, she thanked the crowd, and said how nice it was to FINALLY be back home in Austin... must be nice! Blue Sky was the last song of her set. If only this could have been the way it sounded on her talk show appearances. I guess it's the whole "talk show" thing where the bands hardly ever sound good.. and this WAS a concert recorded for TV, not just one song.. but this song really sounded awesome on the show last night! The show concluded with a nice little interview.. and I must say I'm proud of Patty for sounding so well-spoken in an interview for once! She is usually very shy, answering with a "yeah, *chuckle*" etc.. but last night she really gave some nice insight on songwriting, and why living in a music city like Austin makes her work so much harder at her craft. It seems that she's really getting the knack of talking in front of a camera and not being so shy about it.. :-) I guess my only complaint is the absence of Little God, which is probably my favorite "full band" Patty song. It's been excluded from both of her 1/2 hour band shows that have aired on PBS, and I was really hoping THAT was the song that was unlisted in the TV guide. That along with Wiggley Fingers not making it on either show is really a bummer in my opinion! As good as Blue Sky sounded last night, she's already played that for TV 3 times, it would have been nice to hear one of the ones I mentioned above instead. Either way, the show rocked.. and I'm so proud of Patty for probably *Wowing* "the thousands in attendance", as well as "the millions of us watching at home*. ..Which reminds me.. some of the camera views (especially the one from the front of the stage, looking up at her) really reminded me of so many times that I myself have been right where that camera was. I was sitting here getting all teary-eyed thinking of old times, and hoping & praying for a Patty show sometime soon where I can wait in line for hours & hours with my partners Jen & Don so that WE can be right up front like that! Ahh, the life! .. Patty do you hear that?? I'm saving vacation time for you this year, in hopes of following you for a week, wherever you go! :-) East coast preferably... Love, Music.. and of course Patty Jean! Dave ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 6 May 2001 19:45:47 -0400 From: "Eryn Fleming" Subject: MM: Re: Yay for OUR Patty!!!
