"PS:DoL" officially a sellout at Philly festival.



   http://www.phillyfests.com/pff/sell-outs.cfm

The Philadelphia City Paper is not so crazy about it: 

    If you've ever wanted to hang with Patti Smith, now's
    your chance. Steven Sebring spent 10 years shadowing
    the sharp-featured punk poet, but his lengthy tenure
    doesn't seem to have cracked her shell. Shot in
    grainy black and white, the movie follows Smith on
    stage and off, finally pinning her down for an
    uncomfortable interview in her apartment. But apart
    from a visit with her parents, who reminisce about
    driving in to see Smith at the Trocadero, there's
    nothing revealed that Smith hasn't bared more
    eloquently in her songs. - S.A. (April 15, 7:15 p.m.,
    Prince Music Theater, sold out)
