Despite what I said in a previous post, I did end up finding myself at Riot Fest this past Sunday. Despite catching glimpses of a few bands not really worthy of mention, I did check out Naked Raygun and the Patti Smith gigs in their entireity. The former was really "good". Seeing Patti, for me, was nothing short of a religious experience. it was Fred Sonic Smith's birthday so she spoke of him a fair bit. Powerful presence, that Patti.
