Lou Reed 2005 tour

Universally acclaimed musician and singer-songwriter Lou Reed has announced his full 2005 European Tour Dates, including three newly added dates in Finland. The legendary musician, whose career has spanned four decades - from his very first album The Velvet Underground and Nico, will be performing two rare concerts in the UK during his European visit. UK dates include Leicester Du Montfort Hall on Thursday April 21st, and the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall on Friday April 22nd.

Over the last 40 years as composer, poet, lyricist, musician, vocalist and sound pioneer, Lou Reed has constantly pushed the envelope with his art - and through his lack of compromise transformed many seemingly impossible barriers. In the process he has created not just one, but many of the greatest albums and songs of all time, straight through to his top 10 single success with the dance remix of Satellite Of Love in the UK in 2004. Recently, Reed signed an exclusive worldwide recording deal with Sanctuary Records Group

Over the years he has recorded some of the most outstanding rock'n'roll albums including Berlin, Street Hassle, New York, The Blue Mask, Coney Island Baby, Transformer, The Bells, Rock'n'Roll Heart, and Sally Can't Dance. His most recent album releases include The Raven, Animal Serenade, and NYC Man: Lou Reed - The Collection. Emotion In Action, a double book edition of Reed's photographs was published in October 2003 by 7L and Gerhard Steidl.
