And a big "hi" right back! Yeah, it was cool to see her in such an intimate setting. And to think before May, I had never seen her live. Now, twice in three months! The best part was when she did Top of the World as an encore. I had no intentions of getting an autograph or talking to her, but after the set, I just had to. So I bought a second copy of 1000 Kisses to get signed. I didn't have anything profound to say, either. Just the usual babbling that accompanies meeting someone you admire so much. I brought a friend who never heard of Patty before, but she left a huge fan. And with an autograph and a CD, too. She thought it was a pretty darn nice birthday! So when's she coming back to LA?!?!? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2002 19:47:31 -0400 From: "* Darcie *" Subject: MM: Re: Cain chord - try this! (Flaming Red, too!) Yeah I use double dad when I play Cain, I capo it a 3 to sing it higher. But I'm only hitting the lower E string, not both the E and A. I'm not sure if she plays FR with that, I always just dropped D. Eh, it probably would sound better. I haven't tried Rain yet. Coolness, ~darc - ----- Original Message ----- From: Scott Antall Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 10:47 PM To: 'mad-mission@smoe.org' Subject: MM: Cain chord - try this! (Flaming Red, too!) I was watching on old video that included Patty playing Cain. I thought I recognized the guitar as the same one she has been playing on Rain and Chief. This instantly lead me to try the DADDAD tuning that Ron figured out. Guess what? I think it works! It is so simple, too! I think it is capoed at II. Mostly open chord. With the bass sections witching between: 000000 330000 550000 Try it for Flaming Red, too! Same chords! Anyone, anyone? Am I crazy? :) Scott PS - Probably the best part of that Lilith Fair recording is the slide guitar. That's for another day to figure out! :)Get more from the Web.

In under 24 hours since my original post, I've gotten about 140 responses from people interested in getting the discs! Wow! Many, many people have stepped forward offering to be a branch, and I thank you for that. It's a fine bunch of people we have on this list, let me tell you. :-) Most people who have expresssed interest in being a branch have simply said, I can be a branch. Some have given me quantities of copies that they can do, which is great. Due to the unexpected number of sign-ups at this early stage though.. it looks like I will need a few people to step forward and make a substantial contribution as far as quantity of Cds burned. I don't want this thing to take forever to get done, & I simply can not do 80 copies of this thing. My plan is to have someone do the artwork (I have a fine candidate in mind), and have that put up on a website somewhere. That way the branches responsibilities will be limited to simply burning the discs. The website is yet to be determined, so if anyone has some free webspace for this, that would even be a major help since I'm not too inclined as far as web design and all that stuff is concerned. Ok.. so to sum it up. I'm looking for a few people who can burn maybe 20 or so copies of this thing. That way I'm not responsible for sending out 80 Cds to people who can do a few copies. :-) Thanks guys! if you can help me out on either the "free space" on a website or being a "major branch", please send me an email with 1 of those 2 things in the subject line.

Hey guys, For those of you who have signed up to be leaves, just sit tight for now. I'm hoping to have the copies shipped out to the branches by the end of the weekend. By that time, I will have (hopefully) posted which leaves belong to which branches. It will then be your responsibility to get in touch with your branch to decide how you will work this. You can either send your branch some blanks & a self addressed-stamped envelope. You can send them a few bucks to cover the cost of blanks, the envelopes, and the shipping. You can even work out a trade with them for other Patty music you may have.. or maybe even for another artist your branch may be interested in. Whatever the 2 of you decide is fair.. all I ask is that no one makes ANY money off this, and of course.. that these discs don't end up for sale somewhere. That's all for now. Take care, Dave ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Jul 2002 21:54:11 -0400 From: Mike Connell Subject: Re: MM: Whitaker Center Tree update..(branch volunteers) Dave exclaimed:: >Hey guys, > >Ok.. sometimes I forget how much this list has grown in the time that I've >been on it.. > >In under 24 hours since my original post, I've gotten about 140 responses >from people interested in getting the discs! Wow! Mike with boring list statistics again alert! Mike with boring list statistics again alert! Warning! Well, the list's 3 versions are nearly at an alltime high number of subscriberships, so it should not be that much of a surprise :-) The loosemail version of the list now sits at 275 members, down though from a high of 314 just last February. Keep in mind that a lot of people moved to either digest or news or just plain left during some of the early in the year off-topic discussions, which can explain the downturn. It's still a pretty decent number of subscribers. It now ranks fourth of the open discussion loosemail lists hosted at smoe.org (of about 4 to 5 dozen loosemail lists). The digest version of his list is now at 198 subscribers, down from a high of 200 just last week. (it'll rebound though! :-) Finally, the news only version of this list is now at an alltime high of 295 (and I sent Dave's "come and get it" post for the tree onto that list.) Of course, there's many people subscribed to multiple versions of the list, but my educated & experience driven guess is that of the total 768 subscriberships, it probably represents a good 600 to 650 or so individual people, if not more.. So a response of 140 people (22 to 24%) is not too bad, at least based on my experiences of running some tape trees on other lists.
