  • Why can't you mention the host or show?

  • @variationofbirds Because I'm trying to keep things from being removed. Given the age of this clip, and how long I've had this one up here, I'd say the approach has been successful, so I'd like to stick with it.

  • It was a 70's punk thing to not give straight answers to interviews with the mainstream media. Especialy when asked "what does it mean."

    She dosn't act at all like that now.

  • @gymnastix i thought the guy on the far left might be gerry stiller

  • @nikkiejanee1972 ^that was directed at you

  • shes probably uncomfortable and high,... her genius isnt in giving interview to smug, conservative dipshits.. its in here music... listen to her album horses a few times and maybe youll agree

  • why is she so creepy and weird?

    i guess i'm not smart enough to see the genius....just the weird...oh well

  • @mutualpea Never read the caption. My sincere apologies.

  • I wish I had been more open-minded about Punk music -- especially Patti -- back then. She's a national treasure. (p.s.: I had an opportunity to see Bob Marley and The Wailers live in the 70's too, and I turned it down. A few years later I wanted to kick myself for missing that chance!)

  • @Pmitsou123 - Could you repost that in some way without mentioning the host's name? You made a good point, but the person who uploaded this requested that we not mention his name.
