Back in the 70s, punk icon Patti Smith used to pee on stage. Sophie Brador thinks that's cool. That's why Sophie is so angry that I went to see Patti Smith in a beautiful, neo-baroque church in Montreal and did not take her. I tried to explain to her that Patti is now 60, and although in every sense embodies the spirit of peeing on stage, she probably would not actually pee on stage. Sophie thinks the difference is a moot point.



WARNING: If you are somewhat conservative, you may not wish to view this piece of excellence from the Pop Montreal Festival last Friday night. Patti Smith played at L' Eglise Saint-Jean Baptiste, on the Plateau in Montreal. If, however, you appreciate "Punk's Poet Laureate" and enjoy a little racy Allen Ginsberg, check it out. It was a brilliant, brilliant show! Holy doodle.
