Today one of my music geek dreams came true, I got to meet Patti Smith! I was first introduced to Patti Smith's music when I was a teenager. My aunt's husband, a fellow music geek, introduced me to Patti Smith when I was about 15 or so. Horses, Smith's first album, is considered a classic punk album. While the sound is not what most people think of when they think of punk, her music is quintessentially punk. She sings about literature, poetry, religion, art, and other assorted themes. I admire her tremendously and was thrilled to meet her today, however brief that meeting was. At least I have a souvenir.
