this one?

If that's the handmade one, yes that's the one. I tried to get tixs for her appearance, ap parently the show was great. She also recvd. her deceased brother's scarf back, that teared her up.

I am really looking foreward to seeing her next month at the Beacon Theater celebrating the 4oTH anniversary of Horses. Doubly sentimental since it will be my first time at the Beacon since the Stones were their for the Clinton Birthday show!

In my lifetime I have watched Patti Smith go from being an object of satire to an underground cultural icon.

I think the object of satire best befits her.

Watch this segment from "Saturday Night Live" circa 1978 to see why she was considered a joke once upon a time. This segment satarizes her love of the Rolling Stones:

This shirt comes from a company called Lonely Ladies. These were produced in the mid 70s. I have the same shirt.

I saw Patti Smith recently live in Paris (Olympia) and it really was a great show.
I was impressed by her voice and by the backing musicians. It was full of rock n roll, poesy, humour and tributes.
