I'll vote anyway - I like Lou a lot! Perfect Day owns. I saw him play last summer. He had a pretty good bass player with him who played both EBG and EUB. It was cool.
we LOVE the velvet underground. Love them like children. We think we prefer nico's vocals to lou's however. But then we listen to the shiny shiny leather song (we forget it's name right now)...and we prefer lou. *hums all tomorrow's parties*
Yes indeed, this thread does require some mention of Nico... as a side note - I didn't realize BrokenAngel was plural - how many of you is there? As a nit-picking side note...in the poll it should be they're and not there.
"How many of you isthere" we feel that you are a hypocrite, nitpicking when your own grammar is hardly up to scratch
We are fans..But we are not kids either..we have been listening to VU and Lou Reed for over 25 years..We also agree that Nico could sing. Nico and Marianne Faithful are high on our list of cool chic singers....
The DVD a night with Lou Reed has some sweet bass playing. One of the best parts is when Fernado Saunders starts playing a higher paced walk on the wild side and Lou gives a quick you basstard glance.
[Golum]We likes the Velvetses.... No! We hates the Velvetses![/Golum] Seriously I like them... And come on, with all the "we" in this post, someone had to do it...
Funny you should mention it, I saw him on Charlie Rose 2 nights ago. He's still punky, but what the heck, he just about invented it. [ADD] Anybody remember which record the live version of Sweet Jane with the guitar instrumental intro was on, Rock and Roll Animal maybe...? [/ADD] Thor
Don't consider yourself a fan until you listen to "Metal Machine Music" all the way through with headphones! P.s.- Hate Lou solo- dig the Velvets
