RE: Patti @ CBGBs

["J" <jlregister>]

I managed to record all of it off the Sirius broadcast except the first 5
minutes, so I didn't get Piss Factory or the abortive start to Hunter Gets
Captured by the Game....I got started just after she said something about
not having improved any since 1974 <grin>.

I've got a busy week ahead, but if no one else got it recorded, I'll clean
up my recording and put it on disc and make it available through the list.
I'm hoping someone else did, because as I said I didn't get the first 5
minutes.




It was a fitting tribute to the end of a place that gave birth to so much.
Most of her own material was from 1974-76; one new song called Without
Chains, I think...about Guantanamo.  Lots of covers, too, including several
that I think are new for her -- the list of PSG covers is getting longer and
longer.

The band included Jay Dee, Lenny, Tony, and Richard Lloyd (of Television).
Guest appearance by Flea. 


Set List:

Piss Factory
Hunter Gets Captured by the Game (Smokey Robinson/The Marvelettes)
Kimberly/The Tide is High (Blondie)
Pale Blue Eyes
Marquee Moon (Television)
We Three
Distant Fingers
Without Chains(?) (new song about Guantanamo)
Ghost Dance
Birdland

(break)

Sonic Reducer (Dead Boys)
Redondo Beach
Free Money
Pissing in a River
Gimme Shelter (Stones)
Space Monkey
Blitzkrieg Bop/Beat on the Brat/Rock and Roll Radio/Sheena is a Punk Rocker
(Ramones)
Ain't it Strange
So You Wanna Be a Rock and Roll Star
Babelogue/Rock and Roll Nigger (with a little bit of Little Johnny Jewel
thrown in)
For Your Love (Yardbirds)
My Generation

(Encore)
Land
Gloria
Elegie



The spirit of the early days of CBGB was very much present.  There were
acknowledgements to/for Tom Verlaine, Television, Blondie, Dead Boys and
Ramones, plus her brother Todd, Jane Friedman (her original manager) and
Michael Stipe of REM. 


The show ran nearly 3 hours long, closing finally with Elegie....which fades
out with her quoting Jimi Hendrix "I think its sad, its much too bad, that
our friends can't be with us today" followed by the names of many from the
early days who have now passed on, including Robert Quine, Lester Bangs,
Greg Shaw, Terry Ork, Jerry Nolan, Lance Loud, Peter Laughner, Joe Strummer,
Johnny Thunders, Stiv Bators, Richard Sohl, and Johnny, Joey and Dee Dee
Ramone.



"Well, goodnight everybody.  Farewell CBGB's.  Thirty-three years.  It's the
same age as Jesus.  Thank you Hilly.  Good night everybody.  Goodnight.
Remember, drink plenty of water, brush your teeth, be happy."

And so an era ends.
