("We decided to go and see Lou Reed. We walked into City Hall and 10 minutes later and 30 bob ($2) lighter walked out. We did not get any introductions, and still do not know if it was Lou Reed actually playing. He came on stage and every other minute he was pulling up his trousers. Song after song followed the same line. All the background music was the same." Sounds 20-10-73.)
