How poetic was that thread title?! Shoulda been on Growing Up In Public or The Raven, right?

Here is a scan of Lou and UNCUT magazine editor Allan Jones. (Sorry if it's fuzzy - I blew it up from a 1.5" x 1.5" pic) "He'd just played a brilliant show, as he kept reminding anyone who'd listen. "Am I not the King of Flash?" he kept repeating. It would have been impolite to disagree."

Thanks for the rags, Gav!

Arthur Kane w/ Nico's son, Ari. I am guessing this is '73 or '74.

Just to prove once again I'm an ornery bastard

here's another instance of the 1971 pic of the post-Lou band playing for the Dutch "Toppop" TV programme.

Ltr: Doug, Maureen, Walter, Willie. I seem to have read somewhere they played "Rock and Roll" (Loaded had just been released in Europe).

This a press release for events going on at the Film Makers Cinematheque 25 Feb - 2 March 1967. Angus Maclise are mentioned alongside the VU. I don't think this has been published anywhere.

Bleach, those are both great! I swear, you have found some unique stuff over the years. Here is one of 'em. A letter from Barbara Falk:

Funny, I was just reading about this point in time in Bockris's biog on Lou. At this point, Lou was going nuts about not having money, and the Katz brothers (Dennis & Steve) were always the targets of his speed-fueled paranoia.

This is the kind of thread I love!
Here's my contribution hoping it'll bring out more.

The title of this thread is worthy of a Lou-penned opera? Yay or Nay.
