 | | Lou Reed: Berlin comes to London |
Lou Reed's seminal album Berlin, recorded over thirty years ago, was described by many critics as depressing when it first appeared. It's something the veteran New York rocker has never quite forgotten. Now he's taking the music on the road. The influential singer/songwriter will be appearing in a series of concerts right across Europe and here in London, in which he reprises the album with some "killer players". | "What we have are some killer players..." | | Lou Reed |
"It's a certain kind of show," he's been saying to 94.9's Robert Elms. "We don't have exploding balloons and trapezes falling from the sky, or 15 dancing girls and the rest of it." "But we're serious in trying to really make you emotionally feel this. That's what the object is." Lou Reed's Berlin is at Hammersmith Apollo on 30 June and 1 July. More details on 0870 400 0688 |
