Lou Reed's Equipment On Ebay
 
Lou Reed eBay Auction:
Over the past thirty years Lou Reed amassed a large collection of equipment in support of his many tours. While all of his most important guitars, amps, and effects will be kept by Sister Ray Enterprises for his archive, there are many pieces of musical gear and road cases that need to be sold. Over the next few weeks these items will be auctioned through eBay. The proceeds will go towards the work that is underway to develop the Lou Reed Archive.
Please support this effort by checking our eBay page, http://stores.ebay.com/Lou-Reed-Archive . New items will be posted every few days. A wide variety of items will be available. All of these items were kept at Sister Ray Enterprises and were used by Lou and his band on tour. Don?t miss this unique opportunity to own a piece of music history.
If you live in or around NYC, we'll be listing select items for local pickup before they go up on eBay. You can sign up to receive these listings here: http://goo.gl/KRE2Bc

I don't know what I think about this. I agree with it being sold to people who may appreciate and use it, that is definitely would Uncle Lou would have wanted BUT I'm not sure ebay is the most conducive environment for this?

Lou Reed just found out Ebay and the internet existed about 6 months before he passed. he thought it was avant-garde
