OH ffs I've called out the bullshit that is "Patti Smith is a punk poetess, a brilliant lyricist!" before but even I was shocked to see that when her star turn as the new music world order known as punk rock from only blocks away in downtown NYC came she played...a glorified cover of Van Morrison's Gloria? AND The Who's classic My Generation? Dafuck?
...aaaaaaaaaand today we're reading this:
Smith and Mapplethorpe could be very difficult to wait on. Smith, unfortunately, was incredibly rude to the servers. It’s impossible for me to listen to a Patti Smith song today without remembering her reducing a waitress to tears because she forgot to put bread on the table.I got no beef with Patti Smith but probably mostly do to my unwitting but incredible influence it looks like 2025 isn't gonna be her best year ever 😬.
