(TV) patti in austin (peripheral verlaine content) (includes UFOs)

[robin dunn <rdunnrn@yahoo.com>]

saw patti in austin last night.  great show, she was in great humor, very up and sounding great (i saw her the day before at a radio taping and it was the same thing).  the highlight was definitely "distant fingers," which she introduced with a story about tom and UFOs.

she said back in 1974, when she and tom were both playing CBs, they'd go out to the alley between sets and "do things" (laughing).  she said the sky back then was full of UFOs over CBGB's (they're gone now, she says), and she and tom would watch them together.  she said she wrote the song for him.

(i'm sure none of this is new, but she told it well.)

i think i read once that when she picked her current home, she knew immediately when she saw it that it was the right place, because inside was this huge spaceship sign that she and tom used to look at together.  or something like that.

just looking for something to do because TV won't play here,
