at least he lived long enough to get a gently waspish valedictory swipe from ilx' most august man of letters

he signed Mistrial for me, and was pleasant about it.

eclectic husbandry (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:00 (ten years ago) link

He taught me what the colored girls say.

Aimless, Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:00 (ten years ago) link

He scowled at me once.

Jesus (wins), Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:02 (ten years ago) link

Did not see this coming. Damn.

Only seeing it reported by RS at the moment ...

Josh in Chicago, Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:03 (ten years ago) link

he was a complete nonentity in my life but his passing seems to affect many people so rip guy, if you are really dead this time

sleepingbag, Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:03 (ten years ago) link

Huffpo reporting it too

Jesus (wins), Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:05 (ten years ago) link

This is awful news. Reviled as Lulu was, Reed cared a lot about the project and I think to the end he remained a dude who wanted to create music.

Guess he's up in heaven now, arguing about amphetamines with Lester Bangs...

Defund Phil Collins (stevie), Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:05 (ten years ago) link

Was worried about this when he cancelled his tour a few months ago.

Ayn Rand Akbar (Shakey Mo Collier), Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:05 (ten years ago) link

I guess thats another way of saying "too soon." I liked his review of Yeezus a lot.

Sorry xp

Gonna miss this irascible loony

Ayn Rand Akbar (Shakey Mo Collier), Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:06 (ten years ago) link

Huff Post cited RS as source.

the objections to Drake from non-REAL HIPHOP people (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:07 (ten years ago) link

xpost Every single place reporting this links to the RS article. No other confirmation yet. Which does not negate its veracity, but ...

Josh in Chicago, Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:08 (ten years ago) link

Anyway, watch your back, Iggy!

Josh in Chicago, Sunday, 27 October 2013 18:08 (ten years ago) link

c'mon guys the Daily Mail has it! Must be true!

Holy crap! RIP

If this is true, I mainly feel sad for Laurie Anderson.

An old friend died a couple of weeks ago, someone I remember spending a lot of time with at university, a lot of it playing Lou Reed and Velvets records while off our faces at like 2am. It was only last week I put Berlin on and pretty much lost my shit at the last four tracks, devastating. RIP.

When Vanity Fair magazine asked him to give his definition of abject misery a few years ago, Reed's response was simply: "Being interviewed by an English journalist".

like is every media outlet phoning RS, getting told yeah its true, then waiting an indeterminate length of time before conceding RS aren't making this up

Yes they are all getting on their phones and calling Rolling Stone.
