    You should know that I was a bit in a shock of this horrible news some minutes ago. Trying to realize if it truly happend. Alas, the sad thing is that my eyes were not deceived.

    Lou Reed, rock legend and co-founder of the Velvet Underground is dead. In my youth, I always listened (well..I still do, but not that often anymore on CD) to his music on cassettes and on the radio. Who did not grow up with Perfect Day, Satellite of Love, Vicious and Walk on the Wild Side? Why do always the good die first? Rest in Peace Lou.

    Suddenly Arthgon.

    But wasn't he over 70? Wouldn't really call it "good dying first".

    Yeah, he was 71 years old, but still...

    Edit: Are not you familiar with the saying "The good people always die young" and its variants?
