It was 2001 at the Beacon Theatre in New York. Sheryl Crow was one of the performers and had had a fair bit of commercial success at that time. Patty was not as well known to many in the audience, and certainly was not as commercially successful as Sheryl Crow. After Patty did an amazing performance of "Top of the World" to great audience appreciation, from my seat in the second row I saw Sheryl Crow turn to Steve Earle and say "I can't go next" I took this to mean "I can't follow that". As I am writing this it occurs to me that perhaps she was overcome by emotioneither way a great compliment to Patty. > > > > > On 2013-06-12, at 2:25 PM, Bruce Greenberg wrote: > > > Yes, that set on the pool deck was probably my favorite moment of the cruise. That and Patty dedicating a song to my wife and I when we weren't in the room (otherwise that would have been the best moment). There was so much joy on that stage.

After almost every song, one of the women would turn to the others or to Buddy and apologize (off mic) for something! It was very interesting to watch. Buddy just shrugged it off and was completely unbothered by it. Not sure if they were perfectionists, insecure, or just plain human, but it was endearing to see these amazing artists feel like they fell short. Of course, none of us noticed -- it was one of the best sets of the week. > > > > > > ________________________________ > > From: Lisa Zwick > > > > To: Lawrence Israelson > > Cc: "" > > Sent: Tuesday, June 11, > > 2013 2:40 PM > > Subject: Re: MM: Patty in Waterville, ME > > > > > > I agree.

I watch the Kennedy Center Honors every year and it is almost always a great show musically. Two of my recent faves were this Led Zep one (fabulous!) and a few years back when they honored Paul McCartney (astounding!).

She needed extra time to tune at the Living Room show, and it just meant we got to hear more stories. She seems slightly embarrassed about it, but not too much. Obviously a full breakdown on stage would be awkward, but small mishaps are fun. Nice to see they're human!
