Patti Smith Festival in Bologna, Italy on 4-6 April 2008.

The Annie Leibovitz documentary, Life Through A Lens, in which Patti
appears, will be released on DVD in Germany this week. You can order
it from places like http://www.amazon.de/
Pittsburgh radio station WYEP last year released a compilation CD of
songs recorded at radio sessions - "Live & Direct Volume 7". It
includes Patti Smith performing a solo acoustic version of My Blakean
Year. There is no information about the recording date, but my best
guess is June 2004. The CD can be ordered from the radio station.

Patti Smith, Giovanni Sollima and Lou Reed will make cameo appearances
in Wim Wenders next film, "The Palermo Shooting", due for release
later this year. The story concerns a German photographer, played by
Campino (the lead singer of Die Toten Hosen), who travels to Sicily to
make a break with his past.
