Think she worked at Rather Ripped Records in Berkeley, where she did some poetry/music shows. I think they were selling some recordings and/or similar poetry printings through their mail order catalog, which, along with a couple of reviews she had printed in CREEM, was why I, a 17-year-old resident of a small farming town in California's Central Valley, knew who the hell she was when her first album came out.dave™©https://www.blogger.com/profile/15303249276504183167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-55831099041190428772011-08-24T13:10:20.295-04:002011-08-24T13:10:20.295-04:00No, she didn't say bleepable.

"...Did Patti really say "bleepable'?<br /><br />"Basically, if there isn't somebody I want to bleep in a band, I couldn't care less. Unless it's such great abstract music it carries me away.
