Yeah, so Lou Reed is completely out. And remember those supplementary Coachella artist shows in the L.A.-area sandwiched around festival dates? Well, he's put the kibosh on his April 17th show at the Orpheum too, canceling all shows scheduled for next month along the West Coast. Heartbreaking. No real reason other than "unavoidable complications" has been offered for bailing last minute like this but we hope all is well with him.
Although the lineup flyer now reflects Lou Reed's cancellation, Goldenvoice has yet to address the change of plans and whether there will be a replacement. But we have some thoughts on that...
