I just got home from the show. It's 12:30 am and I am so energized from Patty and the band's performance tonight that it's gonna be difficult to get to sleep! I'll let others post the set list and in-depth reviews, as I've a bad memory for set lists and terrible at writing reviews. Patty seemed really happy tonight, pleased and also a bit in awe almost, of playing at the Fillmore. She mentioned towards the end of the show, something about being honored to play there, and how there are so many ghosts floating around on stage, helping out. Wonder if she ran into Janice? *gryn* Ahhh...so many amazing songs...and Patty's voice just soared into the air...I was alternately crying and then bouncing to the music...she would play an upbeat, "can't help but wiggle and dance" tune, then break into a plaintive piece like Rain and Poor Man's House that had me in tears. There seemed to be a near full house, and from my vantage point close to the middle of the room, it felt like everyone's attention was on her. I didn't hear much of the obnoxious conversations all the way through the set that sometimes plague smaller venues like this. Ah...Top of The World, Makin' Pies, Truth #2 and Sweet Lorraine (I'm sure the man who was desperately calling out for that one was ecstatic (: )...and her Bob Dylan cover was really lively and wonderful. I was so pleased with the sound in the place too! After the last time I had seen Patty in SF (I forget the name of the venue) I was afraid that her voice would be drowned out by bad sound engineering...but it wasn't the case tonight. I thank the universe that the whole "Silver Bell" debacle didn't keep Patty from her muse...that her creative fire still burns, and that she continues to share her amazing light and energy and magical music with all of us. Man, I hope I get as much satisfaction from Tori's upcoming concert as I did from Patty tonight. *keeps fingers crossed* Namaste, DragonGirl (who was the one wearing the really long red chiffon scarf in her hair. *giggle*) - -- - ----^-----^------(@ You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars, you have a right to be here, and whether or not it is clear to you, have no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. - -- Desiderata @)-----^-----^----- ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2002 01:07:40 -0700 (PDT) From: Amy Leonard Subject: Re: MM: Patty at the Fillmore (SF) Hey, Just got back and totally agree with everything you said!!! Oh my god I've never been at a place where so many people were so into an artist. That two minute cheer that brought Patty on stage was a rush I've never felt. Was my first Patty Griffin show and don't know how it could have been any better. She is beyond amazing!!! High lights were pretty much the whole show, but really loved Rain, Top Of the World, Nobodys Crying, and Moon's Gonna Follow me Home, along with the one about the 7 dead people, but I don't remember that ones name. Her voice was great, her playing was great, she looked wonderful, and the band was awesome as was the crowd. I'll write more tomorrow when I can think straight. Till then must just say I'm in awe and Patty is the greatest ever!!!!!! Oh my god I could see her every night!!! Have a good one all I'm off to bed.

"the blind boys of alabama" are also on the show. if it isn't broadcast in your area, there are a lot of stations that stream it on the internet. i'm not sure how long they'll be playing this show. i listened to it on thursday; i think some stations will have it up until next wednesday (they played it on the boulder station, KBCO on sunday and i missed it). http://www.etown.org/stations1.cfm dana h. _________________________________________________________________ Broadband?

I had thought that now she has really "arrived", headlining at the Fillmore, where so many major artists and bands have been before. She obviously felt the same way, several times referring to those who had been there before her, their ghosts on stage there helping her thru it. The place is covered with psychedelic concert posters dating back to the 60's up to the present. An art form in itself, as good as going to a museum. I noticed posters for The Who, Jefferson Airplane, Moody Blues etc, all the way up to recent Shawn Colvin, Indigo Girls, Lucinda Williams {with Patty's own name listed as opener}. I wonder if there will be one for her now. Someone has to design one if not. She deserves a spot on the wall of the Fillmore for posterity's sake. 1000 Kisses cover would be good actually, especially since that is the Cd she is touring to support now. The concession was selling one that is firey red and orange, with her name and 1000 Kisses on with her turning to look at the viewer- not a Fillmore concert date poster tho. The place was packed, I heard there were maybe 1000 people there. We were standing near the front, and I did miss Don Henn- he should have been there with us. I saw Jerry and friends a little ways over near the stage also. Patty was dressed in a long sleeveless tie died fall colored dress with her high heeled brown boots on and her red hair swept up off her face. I always love her style- she does not put on a bunch of fake glitter and makeup, just is always sort of gypsy like , always very striking, but natural for her. The set list which I did not write down, seemed to include most of 1000 K Cd, except Tomorrow Night, Mary from F R Cd, Truth and Top of the World from S B Cd , and Poor Man's House, Sweet Lorraine, and Let Him Fly from LWG CD. She did a great cover of Bob Dylan's Ballad of Hollis Brown with the band really heating it up at the end, and a Bruce Springsteen cover, Mansion on the Hill, very beautiful. Moon's Gonna Follow Me Home and the 2nd and final encore, My Dear Old Friend{?} were highlights. No really rocking songs this time, a more mellow set list- fine with me- I love her mellow songs the best. Actually, altho I loved Flaming Red CD, I do like the direction Patty has been going in the past year or so. She really seems to be maturing and is very confident now- altho she still seems to be surprised by the devotion of the fans, that they even come out to see her show. She said that it really meant a lot to her. She also said she was worrying about the war a lot lately and thought there was a better way to resolve the situation. Nice to hear her take a stand- I am with her on that one. Feeling lucky to see Patty both tours this year here on the west coast- hope she comes back soon. I was thinking last night that she could do a 4 hr set and it would not be enough- she would still probably have more songs that I would need to hear before I said enough. Would I ever say enough? Probably not.

Two encores even. She played at The Fillmore (not the first time), but is clearly jazzed by the luminaries that have performed on this stage over the years. The crowd was very appreciative and respectful, listening with great attention to the solo ballads as well as the full band stuff. I snuck a look at the set list for the So. Cal. concert that was posted and it seemed to mirror the one last night - although the second encore was Sweet Lorraine. She seemed to be having a great time performing. Doug Lancio is having a good time playing with her - I was familiar with him long before I knew of Patty and it seems he has found a great fit with her. The cello and accordian were awesome accompaniments, the keyboards less so. She introduced the new song, Dear Old Friend, as one that came about as she was worrying about getting into another war (that Bush seems intent on doing). It was a great show and I feel lucky to have gotten to go. This is only my third time seeing her in concert and I will look forward to more!

Jordan M.D." Subject: MM: Moon I asked that same question and fortunately Don Henn transcribed it. I'm just a beginner at the guitar but I think the chords at the beginning are right. I can't figure the chorus out so thought maybe somebody else could give it a shot.
