Iggy Pop's done baser stuff and remains a fuckin' king. Lou Reed just does whatever the fuck he likes.

And if it pisses people off, well that's just fine by Lou.

Reading the article, all I can say is: dafuq?

Seriously though, maybe it's just the way the author selected the quotes, but the musicians involved come off like this is all an elaborate joke on us.

Yeah, I checked the date too ... it's not from april 1st. Still, I'm curious about the end result and I would give it a listen. It's nice of Metallica to give over the hill performances a bit of a boost in their old age.

Lou Reed played with Metallica at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 25th Anniversary concert, and I thought it was pretty cool. 

I'm not gonna judge it until I hear it.

I'm reserving judgment, it's just that the article read so bizarrely in my head.

The next random rock legend/metal head pairing I want to see is David Bowie using Quorthon's coffin as a bass drum.

So what, Lou Reed hasn't done anything worth giving a shit about in even longer than Metallica has.
