I love Patti Smith and I'm glad you had a great time.
Can't believe she chatted in Italian and paid homage to Pasolini! I love her even more.
A big hug

Thank you, Roby :)
Well, she seems to have become quite familiar over the years with some Italian expressions and way of life (she even made a joke, half in Italian, half in English, about her way of ordering American coffee in Italy: basically, "espresso, please, con acqua calda a parte"!)
Last year, she and her acoustic band had quite a few concerts in various parts of Italy. On her official website there's an updated list of upcoming concerts in various countries.

Ciao
