Dear fellow human,

My name is Fayez, and I am a father of three children in Gaza. I never thought I’d beg strangers to help, but here I am. We are surrounded by destruction. Food has become a dream. Water is scarce. Hope is fading.

I was injured in the war. But nothing hurts more than seeing my children go to bed hungry — night after night.

🙏💧 I am begging you — not for comfort, not for money — but for a meal, a chance, a small mercy.

Please donate. Or at least, please share this message. Let someone, somewhere, hear our cry.

👉 Donate now — help a starving child

Taken from the Indiana Rock History website, written by Rob Perdue:

This was a rare Indiana appearance by Lou Reed on a very rainy and stormy night in 1974. This show occurred between the release of Rock n Roll Animal and Lou Reed Live so the timing was great. Memorial Coliseum was fairly small and had a high school gymnasium feel for this general admission show. Daryl Hall and John Oates were supposed to be the opening act but cancelled due to travel problems associated with the weather.

Grey Ghost was the opening act and might have been a local band. Lou was in good form but his backing band was not as strong without the twin guitars of Dick Wagner and Steve Hunter that made Rock n Roll Animal a classic.

From eBay:

Two extraordinary and revealing letters sent by Lou Reed to German publisher and editor Ralf-Rainer Rygulla, shortly after leaving the Velvet Underground.

Reed writes from his parents’ home in Freeport, Long Island, to which he’d fled after abruptly leaving the band he’d co-founded.

In Lou Reed: The King of New York, Will Hermes wrote that after playing his last show with the Velvets, at Max’s Kansas City on August 23, 1970, Reed ‘stowed his guitar in the trunk of his parents’ car, and Sid Reed drove him home to the old house in Freeport where his son would be staying for a while.’

"Reed spent his first days at home holed up in his [childhood] room. He confessed his depression to friends; his sister believes he was suffering a nervous breakdown...He began working part-time as a typist for his dad’s accounting firm for forty dollars a week."

These letters date from that period.

Review of Lou's November 13, 1976, show at The Palladium in NYC. Robert Christgau again goes for the insults, mixed with attempts at a compliment, using the obligatory - and predictable - quote from Rock & Roll.

It's easy to see why Lou hated him so much.
