64 Things Restaurant Patrons Must NEVER Do
Is there anyone left in the world who thinks that aging icon Lou Reed is all sunshine and rainbows? The grumpy old man/legendary rock star was at it again this week when he "demanded the bar be shut down when he sang at Persol's Incognito design exhibit at the Whitney." The Daily News reports that he didn't want to hear those pesky bar noises as he performed, and once onstage he addressed his audience by shouting: "Shut the [bleep] up - you're talking too much!" That kind of outburst would have never flown at the Factory, man. Earlier this year he griped about a garage, maintenance facility and salt shed the city is planning for the corner of Washington and Spring Streets. Reed resides in a nearby penthouse with wife Laurie Anderson, and the couple are now part of a lawsuit against the city.

People can be rude, I attended many events and can't enjoy the performance with those fucking people yapping about themselves. dochebags.
Did anyone ever think that Lou Reed was all sunshine and rainbows? Does anyone really think that the Factory was all sunshine and rainbows?
With all the drugs that they were on...yeah.
Did anyone miss Jen's sarcasm?
If he could be a dick to Terri Gross on Fresh Air, he's going to be a dick to anyone.
He said the same thing us at the Academy of Music in the late 70's because we were asking him to play "Sweet Jane."
I went to see (I don't remember...) and a group of stupid women spent all concert talking behind us... I mean, say hello and the other pleasentries, but the whole concert!?!?
I go to a lot of shows, and there's always a group of folks yapping away throughout the show, totally oblivious to the fact that they are supposedly there to, oh I don't know, listen to a band play?
try being a taper with these yappers.
you can't win.
Hey Lou shut the Eff up, its a concert!!!!!
All sensitive and shit cos you haven't been relevant in 35 years!
If you can hear people talking, you aren't playing loud enough.
"We interviewed Dr. Dog (who play a free Celebrate Brooklyn! show tonight)"
Please allow me to show you the correct wordage:
"We Interviewed Dr. Dog (who PLAYS a free CELIBATE Brooklyn! show tonight."
