Patti Smith is playing at the Rock Hall for the CBS Early Show on July 27.

Oh, Patti. Why?! The Rock Hall I get with the induction and everything. But the Early Show?

One Time, I was working at CD Game Exchange years ago, and that Patti Smith compliation: Land and Something or whatever it's called had just come out and I was playing it in the store and you were supposed to play things that wouldn't offend people and that song came on, but I was across the store and couldn't fix it or it would seem more ovbious so, I just left it and was scared the whole time that people would get mad and not understand. But nothing really happened. That was a really anti-climatic story.

CBS Early Show: Summer in the City.

It’s another plus for Cleveland—we’re in the national spotlight again!

Show your Northeast Ohio spirit as CBS’ The Early Show broadcasts their morning show LIVE on a huge stage in front of the Rock and Roll Hall of
