a week to go... getting excited here, flying from rotterdam to London
Looking forward to the Royal Albert Hall.

Curious if the setlist is the same as the usa tour.

Got one request if I may : Street Hassle

Will try to make pics and vids again

Have a Lou day!

Can't be the same. The European tour is the Berlin one. So the setlist will be the Berlin album plus some encores.

[Lou_Reed_VU]

yes right..well one of the encores Street Hassle then

I was there. Fabulous- Louhttp://www.loureedforum.com/posting. ... =22&t=880# seemed more mellow than at the Hammersmith Show last year. The Chick singing back-up was absolutely gorgeous! Harold Wilner introduced the show, so now I can put a face to the guy when listening to Lou's New York Shuffle Radio show.

The Set List for the RAH show, apart from the Berlin album played in it's entirety, was Satellite Of Love, Rock 'n Roll, & a third song that i have forgotten. I think the lyrics were about asking someone to marry him, maybe someone else will know what this was. Anyway, i thoroughly enjoyed the concert & the evening, & was quite surprised at Berlin's performance. I guess you go to a show with certain preconceived ideas as to how it is going to be, but it was nothing like i had expected, which was a complete surprise to me. I did get to meet a couple of members of the band after the show, & passed on my congratulations. I thought it was a thoroughly stunning performance. I will look forward to the film now, as a souvenir of my concert experience. Although i feel that the film may add yet another perception of this piece that i am yet to experience. If you get the chance to see Berlin Live, please certainly take it.

The final song was 'The Power of The Heart' - which is the new track that he's given to charity (I think). There is a link to it on the official website. Great show, and fantastic sound I thought.

Just arrived from London, amazing precious show. This has been my third Berlin, after Manchester and London Hammersmith past year, and I could say that has been the better one, talking about performance, perfect sound and emotion. Lou was often smiling and I can say that he is in very good shape, his arms are more muscled than ever, and so is his guitar playing and his voice.

I also just arrived from London and I agree with Travis it was great!! Lou played like he was in his thirties :)
First show for me another country then holland , perfect sound and a beautiful RAH and of course Lou and band.
