lou must've packed a lot of drinking into the 60s-70s - he's been sober for 30+ years, I think!

I was on a radio station at the weekend and got the DJ to play "The Power of Positive Drinking" as a tribute to Lou.

My first thought at seeing that Lou Reed photo with Ronnie was, "Damn, Elvis Costello looks like hell!" Then I realized it was Lou and thought he looked good considering his rough year.

While its probably true, waiting for some other site to confirm it, esp since the rs post has so little detail and so much bio it reads like an obit on file

Been meaning to see that documentary, I believe Lou is the one who reads from Doc's journals. Would be kind of extra-emotional to watch it now, I guess.
