Patti Smith on the Return of Live Music and the First Time She Met Bob Dylan

— to discuss the last show she played before lockdown, the return of live music, and the first time she met Dylan in person.The last three shows we played, one was a big show in L.A. and it was part of Herbie Hancock’s [Power to the People! festival in early March 2020]. And it had a very positive political edge. And then we went to San Francisco and played in one of my favorite places [the Fillmore West]. And of course, it’s historic. I’ve played there many times; everyone’s played there.

Having been in New York for so long, and seen the city bounce back from everything from 9/11 to Hurricane Sandy, how do you see NYC returning to music post-Covid? We have to do these things in increments. But I’m just of another time. I’m a pretty irreverent performer. I love my people, but I like things to be somewhat … not dangerous, but rowdy. And even when I do a book event, there’s a certain amount of engagement, and even physical engagement. Even just standing up reading out of a book can be engaging.
