Lou Reed is funny cause you'll read like three things about him and be like "wow, look at this man just openly gay and freaking out straight people in the 70s he must be a cool guy." Then you read more and, ah,

The thing that has most defined my image of what he was like to spend time with was the time one of the Metallica guys offered some critique and Lou Reed tried to fight him. Anyways love some of his music but I don’t think he’d be very nice to be around
I think he's kind of a genius in some respects but yes he seems like he would suck to have to deal with on a one to one level.
Yeah, I totally agree with that assessment. At his best he could be one of the best songwriters out there imo (hello Heroin)
