Three Girls & Their Buddy.. (Patty Griffin)

What a great show a couple weeks ago at the Greek in Los Angeles with Patty Griffin, Shawn Colvin, EmmyLou Harris and Buddy Miller!

They did a sweet little round, each taking turns performing one song then passing to the next. Wow, they were all great! And I feel a little bad writing this but, I feel like I just have to give credit to Patty, she was head and shoulders above the others as a vocalist. They all brought their own individual talents and as a group they’re really special, but comparing them.. PATTY FUCKING RULES!! She’s super modest and you can kind of tell she pulls back when playing with others, she obviously respects them, they’ve all earned folk and blues street cred, but that little songbird just blew me away even at partial effort. [sigh] She’s sooo amazing.

After the show Sarah and I went backstage for the meet and greet. Like an uber geeky big fan I was the first to nab her for a quick photo with us. I love her! Sarah has met her several times before, but I think she gets excited every time – she was more composed than I was about it.

Here’s the photo:

I love you Patty! Yeeeow!
XOXO
