The Patti Smith Pratt Commencement Speech
If you read about Pratt's commencement throw-down in the New Yorker, you may enjoy this video of the divine Patti Smith's speech that day on the importance of dental care. There's a few more videos online of her musical performance that day too.
OMG! You guys! I got a newsletter!
Haha, I'm going with it takes longer to write in caps. Plus symbols.
First!
I know! I posted it somewhere else, I got so excited I just stuck it on the first comments page I saw. I think it was the icing-bros-putt-putt sequence…. oops.
OMGOMGOMGOMG I JUST GOT AN AWL NEWSLETTER!!1!@)(!$*#% Ok, now I will view this post.
I came here to mention the newsletter too. But sure, yeah, Patti Smith, cool, whatever.
Jesus subscribed to somebody's newsletter but not mine.
keisertroll, this truly made me belly laugh. thx.
How many wives does it take to screw in a newsletter?
None, that would be kinky!
Hurray for making my Monday!!!
Even with a graduation ceremony that spilleth-over with awesome points such as this, Art School by-and-large remains a complete ripoff.
I'm a graduate of pratt and I have to say that largely, you are correct. I got a lot of out my classmates and having them all in one sleep deprived studio with me for 4 years but otherwise, not quite value for money.
They might've walked the same streets in New York Patti Smith hung out on, but they never shopped at the same mall Patti Smith hung out at as a kid. CHERRY HILL REPRESENT!!!
Patti's been working that flossing and dental care bit into her act for ages.
But it is kinda neat that the two best and most iconic punk rock stars have posts about them on the same day.
