I had read that Laurie had canceled her appearance with the Kronos Quartet in Austin earlier this month.
Maybe Lou's condition was the reason? |

“LOU REED, 71″ by Byron Coley
LOU REED, 71 the easiest heroes are consistent but the ones who really shape us are random maniacs whose work we stumble across at times in our lives we desperately need misdirection and so it was i met the music of lou reed through a guy named buzz who’d bought the first velvets album but didn’t like it just the way he hadn’t liked the first mothers album a month earlier which meant i got each for a buck there is literally no way to describe the way that record hit me i was a ten year old seventh grader and the first time i played the album i was transformed into someone else someone who knew more than my contemporaries even if i couldn’t quite shake it all out lou and john and sterling and moe gave me much more info than i could understand but they did it in a way i loved so intuitively with music exploding in such amazing directions it made sense on a molecular level and through the years i followed lou good scenes, bad scenes, he put us through it all but we kinda paid attention because, after all this motherfucker this lou reed this electroshocked cocksucking bastard who put out many more lousy records than good was the father of everyone i’ve ever known and i never thought he’d die and i really miss him more than i ever thought i would — Byron Coley

Dedicated to Uncle Lou, I think this tune best fits the somberness of the occasion. This is the DEFINITIVE version, nothing touches it, epically good, especially the bridge..
Berlin from American Poet live recording 1972.. this is my fucking favorite. ![]()

I don't get it, Rob. Is that supposed to be funny? If so, then why am I so pissed off?

I didn't make it. I thought it was hilarious, playing off of the "squares" severe lack of actual info about the underground freaks who create the culture they (the "squares") happen to live in.
Like the fucks who wear sonic youth t shirts because sonic youth are a known "cool" thing, but who know fucking jack shit about the music, and the band.

Yeah, I figured you didn't make it.
I guess I was wondering if you were saying, "Whoever made this should be hung and anyone who buys it should be shot!!" Or if was more like, "Let's laugh at idiots." You answered my question. It was the latter. |

I was once on the piss with a friend of mine around town. We stopped off at a cash machine, whilst there there was a group of people stood near by. One of them had a Goo t-shirt on. Me being drunk I ambled over to talk to them about it. When I asked if he liked Sonic Youth he just looked at me blankly and said "wut". That was it, I just went nuts, not embarrassingly nuts but enough to call him a "fucking poser" and so on. Anyway that's my story. GOODNIGHT! Oh and don't be a lameass and wear band t-shirts if you have no idea who they are.

When I was in highschool my gutter punk friend and I would annihilate posers by (in a seemingly friendly way) approaching folks in various band t-shirts or with band patches on their backpacks and asking them, "Did you go to the show last week/month at such-and-such.." or "isn't such-and-such a fucking kick ass record.." and they would be baffled because they didn't even know the band on their t-shirt was playing last week. Then we'd just walk away, leaving them feeling like a shallow poser without even having to directly call them out.

I think Lou Reed wold have thought it was funny, although it was very hard to tell whether Lou enjoyed humor. it is one thing to be funny, and another to enjoy laughing at oneself.
