Holy shit, that was surreal...I just played pac-man with Pat at brownies...

Anyways, the show rawked...Pat had his turquoise Dan Electro and a beanie hat
on. Mikey grew his hair out, shaved his beard, and died his hair black. KArl
was cool working the tee-shirt stand. They sold tee-shirts in 4 colors, hats
in three colors, CD-Rs of The SG cd for $8...and my personal fave, Mikey's
artwork I bought one with a picture of brandy and drew barrymore taking a
bath together. I talked to Karl about all of the lost songs, and he said they
were amazing...oh well, maybe someday. And I talked to Pat about stuff...I
don't remember most of our conversation cause I was so shocked to meet him.
He's reeeeally cool. And then came the show:

There weren't many people there, maybe 30 or 40 stayed for Pat, but the show
was great...He played a few songs of the CD, and not one, but two songs have
had their names changed:
A Hundred Times As Good = I'm With Your Sister
A Fortunate Mistake = Boy Am I Lucky
I got my hands on Mikey's copy of the setlist:
Its Only Natural
Life Goes By
Fatigue
Reason To Worry
BS
Lets Go Down
Conquistadors of Nothing
Pardon Me
What You're On
I'm With Your Sister
Riff
I'm Not Too Proud
Its All Here In This Book
Went Down Swinging
What You Can Forget

Went Down Swinging was an unbelievable song...in fact, all of the new songs
rock ass. The beginning of one of the new songs, I'm pretty sure its "BS", is
actually the guitar part for the old Suburban Advantage song "Lets Go To The
Mall" They played for about an hour. They were unbelievably cool guys to talk
to. Special Goodness is going to go into the studio come January, that is if
another band involving pat isn't in the studio...but I didn't tell you that, It
came from that new guy....

Cya,
mook

<<I just played pac-man with Pat at brownies<

Anybody read the interview this video game magazine called Game Informer did
with Pat back in '97? Apparently the editor and Pat were childhood friends and
played video games together all day. They really only talked about classic
video games but in the end Pat talked a bit about an upcoming project of his
called the Special Goodness.
