Lou Reed: Dead

[I Am Not Marty Feldman]

Meanwhile, no one can validate Lou Reed as etc.  Just as a personality.  Cool.  Fuck you guys.  Eulogies should be an earnest assessment.  Especially for a public figure.  But this is church, I guess.  How comfy.

What are you talking about? Is this even English? Since when does Lou Reed (or anyone for that matter) need validation from some dorks on a message board. I get it, you don't like his solo work. I do. I was listening to Street Hassle a couple days before he died. I enjoy his solo work. So do a lot of my friends.

Wow, are you embarrassingly bad at this or what? I don't know whether to laugh at your pathetic face or weep for your family.

I was kind of kidding, but not really.

I too love his solo work.  I heard VU and Nico first, but then the next thing I heard was this weird dj release pressing thing that had a couple of tracks off Rock And Roll Animal and The Blue Mask.  For some reason, Average Guy stood out most of all to my hungry, twisted 14 year old brain.

  One can assume he went with the Lingo option.  That's minus cartridge, of course.

Fuck Kratutrock.

 

I'd just like to point out that you're the old man who spends too much of his own time pontificating on a messageboard with the sort of insipid bullshit you come up with on a regular basis. How pathetic is that?

 

Tedious record collectors are dumb too.

[Scrod Prickknee]

Well, I'm not a record collector and with the exception of this morning sitting here waiting for someone to get ready, I generally only post while bored at work. So in reality I don't spend any of my "own time" on here, or at least very little. You are not at all funny and you add no insight into conversations, so you are the very definition of "tedious." Nice work digging yourself a bigger hole, stupid!

[Krautrock is Dead]

Who said I am funny? And what makes you think that I'd ever want to add insight into any conversations you participate in? I'd rather chop both my hands off than typing anything remotely entertaining to you.

It's a public forum - I can see everything you've ever posted here, idiot. I wish you would chop off your hands.
