Show was good. Letter to Dellmore where Lou talks about the music industry and getting paid to watch people f*** uptown. Dreamweapon book, blue pages with Venus in Furs typed lyrics and other poems. Cafe Bizarre menu and flyer, Ostrich single, photo outside 52 Ludlow on stoop, still of Moe in wedding dress and mask, still of painted band playing for TV program. Most interesting was a typed flyer that listed someone named Jerry (sic, I believe it is supposed to be Terry) with the Velvet Underground and Lou is spelled Lew. I overheard Johan tell someone that he showed the flyer to Lou before who said it wasn't authentic but then asked to keep it.

I didnt take any photos because it seemed corny to do so.

Good luck with your project, whatever its exact nature might be. Sounds interesting.
