4. Hi, coloradodem2005. Mine is Lou Reed's NEW YORK. |
|
Lou doesn't mince words. There's no beating around the bush with Lou Reed.
In concert once in New York City, Reed, playing with just his guitar, was being heckled repeatedly and obnoxiously by someone in the uppder deck of the hall.
The heckler kept calling out, "Play some rock'n'roll! Play some rock'n'roll!"
Finally Reed got sick of it and put his guitar down in the middle of a song, and said this in the general direction of the heckler:
"Look. this IS rock'n'roll. It's MY rock'n'roll. If you don't like it, get a refund, motherfucker."
Lou doesn't throw chairs when he gets mad. Nevertheless, he's willful enough to put nylons on a cheetah.
The heckler was quiet from that point forward.
