Lou is so experienced in having a bad trip. Look how calm he is.
😆😆😆
all that tai chi
,😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
thats genius!
You mean chi tea
This is proof that Lou had a sense of humour.
ever heard a velvet underground song? lol
It appears to me that Lou Reed didn’t find this gig funny, he seems annoyed.
@@lindaengland3822 yeah but I guess he wouldn’t have taken this gig if he knew it would’ve turned out this way
Valium woulda helped that crash
i m pleased... w out this i would of said, major asshole, but hey, he can be light hearted..good. cause i like some of his songs.
Lou Reed is literally the funniest person in this performance.
Lou was like "yall chill tf out" 🤣🤣
With patience and world wearyness he tolerates this- they cannot diminish his coolness.
Wishing they were in his shoes during the Factory days with Edie S and the others.
The song with the most iconic basslines ever and 5 Guitarists lol
They didn’t even introduce the bass player either he just kinda snuck on
After another one bites the dust
Legendary bass player Herbie Flowers...
Nobody will ever want to be there again
@@leesanna7835 the bass player live is actually Fernando Saunders, played with Lou for years. Legend!
I had no idea this legendary performance existed.
The TH-cam Rabbit Hole is amazing. I'm stoned AF and don't even husk hva jeg kom hit for å se etter 😛
@@malfectoyou were looking for a Husker Du performance.
Me either until right now.
This was not something I knew I needed. But I am so happy I found it.
hahahahhahaa
Well, that was definitely fun.
Being on stage with Lou Reed was the highlight of their careers... I didn't know Lou was so patient.
Except Jack Black, I‘d say
@@janbarenkatapult7552 I mean Jack has more vocal chops, but hes never wrote anything as good as Sweet Jane, Walk on The Wild Side, Sister Ray etc... so if he knows good music than he would of been humbled lol
HOW THE HELL did they convince Lou Reed to do this?
$$$
Two words: 🐐 pictures.
@@ThaiThom this was a charity event. Probably just asked him. He lives in the area, has a sense of humor, and is more charitable than people would think.
He needed rent
we will never know haha
Rehearsal must have been fucking insane.
no rehearsal.
Lou reed snapped at Dana carvey during rehearsal because of however he was playing
@@ericpeterson6766 Smigel and Carvey say otherwise.
Haha. Yeah. Dana said he didn’t have a monitor during rehearsal so he couldn’t hear well.
Fly OTW brought me here and I have to say, Dana is a solid drummer! He was steady as a rock! I don't know what Lou Reed was bitchin' about but I thought Dana killed it 😊
I was looking at adam sandler being adam sandler and my inner voice was just like "hit him Lou, hit him hard, make him bleed, do it for me".
Don't worry at this same event a few years he gets his absolute ass kicked by Bob barker
@@literaryloser4470 that was in 96 at Pepsi ProAm golf event !!
He was playing the guitar so his hands were full but he could have spat in Sandler's face. That would have been way cool.
@@deathmetaldouglas69 Punks spit.
Same.
Jeez. Was thinking in my mind "Sandler don't sing like that right in his face, he'll blow a fuse "
I swear I thought this was a fever dream I had once, memories of which flash through my mind randomly. Had to find it and see if it was real.
Don’t trust a celeb on bass or even mention the bassist says everything about the bass player’s role in bands. Hilariously awesome
Mike Judge could've covered the spot. th-cam.com/video/IDXymLMGybA/w-d-xo.html
Nando holding it down like a boss.
Actually i’m kinda low-key insulted they don’t even mention who’s on bass…he has a nice bandana.
@@rdklarnet4120 Fernando Saunders--the king of Reed's post-Velvets 80s sound. Check out "Waves of Fear"
I think it's because the bass in this song is so legendary they didn't want a celeb ruining it.
I cant believe i lived all this time knowing nothing about this. this would have been around when school of rock came out too
Justice for the legendary Fernando Saunders on bass
He played with Lou alot, am I right?
Who?
👍 The lighter side of Lou Reed. RIP
I hope Lou was well paid for being so patient.
@@Endlesssummer1 yeah, this is more of a comedy bit than an actual serious performance. Lou knew what his character was. He almost laughs a couple of times and tries not to
So funny the face on Lou Reed 😂😂😂
Nobody is going to talk about how Dana Carvey is actually holding down the beat?
He likes to play.
Dana Carvey is actually pretty sick on the drums in general. That whole scene in Wayne’s World was 100 percent him
yeah I was thinking he was the only one actually playing.
@@babstra55 they can all actually play though
More like no one is going to talk about Moe Tucker being there as well? Oh wait that's Dana...
see lou physically cringing at 0:49 lol
I can’t tell how lou feels about this
You don't recognize a comedy bit even when there're 5 comedians on stage?
Man, I miss LOU REED so much and I'm glad that he didn't take himself to seriously here, love the stone face look.it must have been tough for him to keep a straight face when Adam Sandler is singing jiberish to his face.R.I.P ,Lou.
Lou: heroin couldn't even make this bearable
Just heard about this on the Carvey & Spade podcast. This warms my heart.
What episode? If love to hear it!
@@willshelton8392 the one with Robert Smigel
@@cedarwings82
and Triumph the Insult Comic Dog!
Man! I can’t believe I missed this one too. I missed a lot of great stuff when my son was really little. But of course I had those great times with my son. Thank you so much for sharing this.
The tolerant of foolishness Lou is nice to see.
i like how there are like 5 guitars and you're barely hearing one (not counting bass). S/o to Dana Carvey
I can't belive this was real
How do so many people in this comment section not realize they’re doing a comedy bit and Lou is enjoying it?
He's got a great deadpan.
Because it doesn’t matter when all these comedians are insufferable doing any bit.
Because it’s not remotely funny, and they’re ruining a great classic. Lou’s a trooper throughout the bit, but it’s sad, and hard to watch.
@@brucemckenzie7927 exactly! Lou is classic and these guys are classically annoying. NYC album is underrated and these boys are overrated.
How do you not realize it's a lame attempt at comedy at the expense of a cultural legend. It does not serve comedy nor music nor my time on planet earth.
Adam Sandler trying so hard to get Lou to laugh or at least smile. All he could get out of him was a slight cracked grin.
That IS a laugh from Lou haha
Lou wanted to laugh soo much...I totally forgot how silly Adam was back then...
Lou Reed: "Yeah...This is aah.....great"... Cracked me up. 😂😂😂!
Haha Lou just keeps looking around smiling to himself and thinking that its all just a mess. A rare Lou smile though at least.
Yeah, which is why you knew he was enjoying it.
If he was genuinely upset he would be scowling.
I love Lou's reaction to Conan o'Brien. Run away!
I'm so glad I came across this. I remember hearing Dana and I think Conan talking about it. Even Adam might have discussed it with Dana & David on their Fly On The Wall podcast... I have to say I am shocked at the amount of snubbing I'm seeing in the comments at these comedians' musical talents. .. Conan O'Brien took a show on tour for several several months in or around 2009, showcasing not just his comedy, but musical talent also, he plays the guitar fairly regularly; Dana has showcased his drumming in Wayne's World for real, AND slayed here; Jack Black is one half of killer band "Tenacious D", and if you haven't heard of it, look it up; Adam Sandler is partly famous for writing his own silly songs and selling them on his CD's (at least when I was coming up, that's what he was doing, besides Billy Madison & Happy Gilmore); and Jimmy ... what can ya say about Jimmy Fallon besides he's been known to strum. ...
Come on folks! These artists are multi-faceted and full of talent. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Yup, I couldn't agree more! ☝️🤠
Makes sense. Jimmy Fallon is _Metal Machine Music_ in human form.
Funniest thing I've read this month. Thank you
I still have my "night of too many stars" oven mitt, and, like this performance, it still holds up hot after all these years
No one will ever out rhythm guitar lou reed.
It was surprisingly good!
I still remember watching this live.
Lucky
That stunk in a way few things ever stink
Lou had a big sense of humor 🤣 good for him...don't get too serious...way to go Lou! Sandler and Reed two of a kind ! Yiddish supergroup from NY area😂
Oddly enough, my Dr Demento BINGO card did feature "Conan O'Brien channeling Tiny Tim".
Never could imagine Lou would habe done something like that.
I saw him 2000. R.I.P.
What a legendary performance!! 😂 had no idea this existed, for such a good cause aswell 😂❤
I love this, it goes to show that even the biggest stars, even including my favorite TH-camr/Comedian (Jack Black) my favorite actor (Adam Sandler) and one of my all time favorite guitarists Lou Reed even support those like myself that have autism.... this really does mean a lot to someone like me
Pretty sure the research is geared towards Adam Sandler being an actor
@@TheMelorino hahaha 🤣🤣🤣 oh shit
Oh I miss Lou Reed! A great great r&roller and a soul. RIP, Lou!
Everyone in the comments talking like they blew a chance at the chance of a legendary musical performance is missing the point.. This was a musical comedy skit. Lou wasn't disgusted for real. Each guy sang his entertainer persona with a verse. Lou probably jumped at the opportunity to do this skit and loved it. Jack Black was my fave, with Adam Sandlers 2nd! They all did good enough musically for the skit to work. Dana Carvy gets the award for holding down a respectable beat, but I'm partial..
Reed what a genius i can t believe a lot of people haven t discovered yet.the work of LOU is huge from pre velvet era to his last recording LULU.he created basically every form of alternative-modern rock.
Yes, i love a lot of songs on Lulu. I remember Lou saying he was looking around for the best band that could make Lulu possible and that he found them. Lou and Bowie' incredible output of legendary albums through the 70s is unmatched i feel, as solos. Lou what a master songwriter and lyricist.
@@dannymiles6503 you forgot the third genius of the trio....iggy pop
@@babkeebabkus8177 Yes, you are exactly right Iggy, gosh i love him too. Like that famous photo of all 3 of them together and Iggy has a pack of Lucky Strike ciggies in his mouth i think?. I really love his New Values album its brilliant. I got it back in 79 and it didnt leave my turntable hardly for 3yrs. Thanks for adding Iggy to make it 3.
@@babkeebabkus8177 it might be the famous photo by Mick Rock.
Not only is he the godfather of alternative music he's the godfather of heavy metal, new age, and metal machine music.🎉
The only thing that could have made this better is if Lou had hit Sandler across the back of his stupid fucking head with his guitar.
I wish I could like your comment ten times. Sandler is vile.
This is hard not to watch several times.
OK, this is bizarre
This broke my brain
I thought this was a fever dream... I finally found it again!
“And the African Americans go” killed me😂😂😂
One of the greatest, thank you for your art, we miss you Lou
Thank you for putting this on.
I miss Lou. I really do
I had to check this out after hearing Smigel talk about it to Dana Carvey and David Spade on the Fly on the Wall podcast.
Amoooo Lou Reed, senhores e senhoras😂 me acompanha desde meus 17 anos
Conan killed it, what a voice!
Kinda sounded like John Lydon lol
Needed Norm in the audience heckling
@@devinappleton4906kinda sounded like Adam Sandler
Lou loved a good laugh. Remember the charity version of Perfect Day? He must have been joking then…
Este show me da 10 años más de vida... vi la presentación presentación TV abierta cuando tenía 16 y desde entonces lo buscaba en Internet y jamás lo había encontrado, hasta ahora
No manches, en qué canal?
@@profesormota4109 era uno llamado Much TV algo así, si no recuerdo mal
@@rodrigoargueta6949 De Argentina?
@@profesormota4109 ammmm no sabría decirte aunque si que la mayoría de bandas argentinas las conoci por ese canal como Attaque 77, Dos Minutos etc.
Lou Reed is the coolest person to ever live!! argue with me . c'mon i dare you.
i would love to argue with you, but i will lose this one miserably
Lou was living in 3026
Syd barrett :)
"you'll lose....your just digging you own grave...you don't wanna do this.."
@@hesham2964 for a minute
Letting Adam Sandler do the ‘doo-do-doo’s is like falling asleep at a friends place with a sharpie Marker nearby
Adam almost made me spit my drink out🤣
I know! People keep dissing Adam on the comments. He’s just being Adam. He’s having fun and everyone else is having fun with him. People need to get a sense of humor.
First time seeing this. Love it. And Fernando holding it all together up stage.
I'm here because of 'Fly on the Wall' podcast
The Wild Side Lou Reed never expected.
When the special ed teacher is running late and the janitor has to watch the class for a while
Ugh why did I press play
because you were curious what you would see , i did the same thing , oh my.
Jack has an amazing voice.
As much as I love Lou and all his early work, he didn't even bother to try singing when he was older. I saw the VU at the Wembly Arena in the UK in the early 90's and old timers were walking out in disgust. The only song they didn't totally bastardize was Venus is Furs, and I knew I was in the presence of a legend. But what ever, no one can hold a candle is his early albums and they were a huge part of my teenage life that I'll never forget. And he was a good sport doing this. Thank you youtube algorithm, this was a real treat I needed.
His best albums ("The Blue Mask" and "Street Hassle") were not that early in his career.
I never understood what Lou Reed was going for with his talk style of singing. He made an actual effort to sing when he was in the Velvet Underground. Loaded is one of my favorite albums of all-time. Then, what happened? Besides Transformer, which is really a Bowie/Reed album, I can't stand to listen to a solo Reed album because of Reed's singing style.
@@thehighllama8101 Right? Apart from New York. I dig that.
@@thehighllama8101 He sings just fine on "The Blue Mask". Much better than on "Transformer" which is good but very overrated and chock full of talk singing. It was sandwiched between two better records. His voice in VU was very thin and boyish. Don't really care for it. The "White Light/White Heat" LP had lots of talk singing. "Loaded" I have not heard forever but didn't Doug Yule push Lou to sing more? I still force myself to listen to VU sometimes to this day but never look too forward to it.
I guess you don't consider manly man vocals to be legit? From "Rock and Roll Animal" on his voice matured heavily. People go apeshit over the intro to "Sweet Jane" but once his voice comes in after the fader riding applause I feel like I'm home. The versions of 'Vicious" and "Satellite of Love" off "Lou Reed Live" are absolutely menacing. All apha and pumped up.
I will say that his manly style suffered very noticeably from about the late 90's until his death as he hardly bothered to carry a tune. Now that is a legit criticism but mainly I think from a live standpoint. I had that problem with Bob Dylan at a concert in 2006. He could not carry a tune at all. Could not even finish lines. It was sad. There is a live video from '00 of Reed doing "The Blue Mask" which is horrible. No good live renditions of it anywhere.
Off the top of my head the "Street Hassle" title track (sans the poetry section) or "Heavenly Arms" off "The Blue Mask" are slightly less macho examples of his non talk style vocals that are quite melodic.
But he's never really sang. He even let other band members sing songs he'd written so they'd do them justice (After hours, new age etc).
Lou must have thought that he was on the muppet show
I've been looking for this for years, beginning to think I had dreamed it
Lou Reed y Maradona, los mejores artistas de la historia!
The early ‘00s were a magical riddle.
This is perhaps the worst thing that's ever happened.
Easily
The death of alternative music.
*best
4:29 I think this moment must have taken years off of Lou's life
Fuck, these lucky ducks, I miss Lou, thanks for sharing this Rob!
Ferfukssake it physically hurts to listen to this.
A GREAT song totally mangled
Lou amo vc
This is insane*_____*
Lou as special guest on The Muppet Show
Geeze that cracked me up😉😄
Que cosa mas extraña
What a gem - fantastic, hilarious. Conan's bit was the funniest for me, but he didn't dare go with the full lyrics about giving head...
Adam sandler works for me 😂
Never ever let anyone see that you happy
I could have done without this. I don't need great songs mocked.
Lighting up.
I can't believe this only has 116,000 views! It is a historic moment.
That was fun!
It takes a great song to survive this charade.
This is one of the funniest Conan moments ever 😂
I like that Jack Black, Dana Carvey and Conan are actually huge fans and thus they give Lou his personal space on stage. Everyone else is getting in his face but those guys have way to much respect for Lou to do that. Even though it is a comedy routine, Jack Black would rather milk the audience than try and annoy Lou (unlike Sandler).
this is freaking awesome
I was waiting for Carvey to sing, "choppin broccoli on the wild side."
Pure joy
Wow!
It was like Lou was in a Police Academy movie.
Lou loved 𝘗𝘰𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘦 𝘈𝘤𝘢𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘺, God knows why
WTF 😂 but Lou is cold like ice with comedian 🤣
