Lou Reed Gigography - Research Results (1972-73)

[mythnormadman]

This Swedish newspaper seems to review the Falkoner Theater show.:
Arbetet Västsvenska Editionen1973-09-21
VILKET band han har! Lou Reed tog i onsdags kväll, i Falkonerteatret ...........

Obviously it doesn't rule out a Swedish show but might point that way.

Lou did not play in Sweden in 1973. That gig can be removed.

OK - are there any disagreements with this?

I am now as confident as I can be that there was no show in Stockholm in 1973. The original entry on Enrique's list was because I had an old cassette labelled "Stockholm 1973". I dug the cassette out of a box and it is obviously mis-dated - it is another 73 show.

Steve Hunter says no show on Sep. 20, 1973 but show in Brussels, Belgium on Sep. 22, 1973. The "Marni Hall" is the Théâtre Marni in Brussels (Dutch/Flemish: Brussel, French: Bruxelles), which is situated in Ixelles (French name)/Elsene (Dutch/Flemish name), a municipality of the city of Brussels. Brussels is a bilingual city with French and Dutch/Flemish names for all streets, municipalities and institutions, which often leads to confusion among foreigners.

That Hunter tour list says September 20. I have read several items about that show, I'd be very hesitant to remove it from here w/out some evidence.

Sorry there's a typo in my post, it should of course read "Steve Hunter says no show on Sep. 21, 1973 but show in Brussels, Belgium on Sep. 22, 1973."
Since "Elsene" on the 22nd is Brussels, it's of course possible that they added a second show in Brussels on the 21st (which Hunter does not list). The Théâtre Marni is a small place, which they could have filled twice.

For what it's worth, I have images dated 20 and 22 September, but not the 21st. You may be right.

Does anyone out there have a tour poster with a list of gigs?!
