More Lou Reed

I'm finally getting around to posting some of the fabulous shots I took of Lou Reed at last week's Web 2.0 Summit, where he played a short set for attendees.

We danced wildly in the front row sans any security guards, although it was short enough where little damage could have been done. Besides, I've yet to see a room of geeks attack an on-stage singer, although I've been hoping for a little more drama on the west coast.

Also check out the video I took and posted earlier this week. In the same post are links to recaps of the mini-concert from SF Gate's Dan Fost and Silicon Valley Watcher. Other photos from the concert can also be found in my Web 2.0 photo album.
