Patti Rothberg

Had a great time playing the shows with Patti Rothberg. She and her guitarist, Freddie Katz, and I played Columbia, Atlanta, Charlotte, and Chapel Hill, travelling together in their mini-van, complete with a menagerie of stuffed animals on the dashboard and an enormous cd booklet containing almost exclusively records by NYC bands in the late 70's and early 80's. It was great to get a little education on the early NYC punk stuff - I thought I knew about it, but I hadn't even scratched the surface. Freddie introduced me to some great John Cale stuff that I'll be checking out more. Be sure to look Patti up (www.pattirothberg.com) - she's a terrific singer and songwriter and an all-around cool cat.

Here's a picture of us all at the Local 506 show.

Hey Django,
I just wanted to say I loved your show in Atlanta! It was awesome! In case you forgot, I'm the one who spent all her hard earned cash on your cds. ;-)
Do you know when you're coming back to Atlanta? I'd love to catch you again.
Suzie (with a "z-i-e") :-)
