Pittsburgh thanks Patti Smith
Patti thought she was off. The crowd certainly didn't think so. The performance of Horses was a true treat whether through the songs that she sang or the words that she spoke in between the songs. She is still spunky at 70-full of energy and life. The punk within her certainly was evident in her encore as she performed My Generation. Her bashing of Trump was expected but necessary. A show of hers wouldn't be the same without some political statement. She was great and her band was wounderful. The sound was phenomenal in the cramped setting of the beautiful Carnegie Music Hall.
