LOVE TONIGHT..TOMORROW MIGHT BE LONELY




Just a quick post for Patti Santos. Tragically killed in an auto accident in December of 1989. Her vocals with the band will always be remembered and appreciated. Her stage presence was a part of the bands overall representation and I will bet that she played a mean tambourine. R.I.P. Patti always.

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL MAIDEN



It is said that 17 year old Patti Santos was probably the original member of IABD. Discovered by Matthew Katz . She was working in a grocery store as a cashier and supposedly was tapped by Katz for one of his upcoming musical ventures before IABD was even in existence. She was to be the focal point of the band. It is common knowledge that David LaFlamme would eventually become known for the creativeness of the band but Patti would be his equal in stage presence. In some circles of thought Patti is believed to be as good a vocalist, if not better, than Grace and Janis. Patti would stay with the band in it's full life cycle( with drummer Val Fuentes)
