Just seen attached gig listing from The Hardrock in Manchester in 1972. Apart from the amazing lineup, what struck me most was the pairing of Lou Reed and Fairport. Can anyone throw any light on this? Matty taking a Walk on the Wild Side?

I've got vague memories of asking the same question either here or on Fairporters a few years back, and not getting anything very useful in return. But it has certainly always fascinated me since I first heard about it, so I hope somebody who was there comes out of the woodwork.

From what i remember reading somewhere, Fairport were the support act for Lou along with Phillip Goodhand-Tait. They both did a short set in support

They broke my heart and they killed me, but I didn't die. They tried to bury me, they didn't realise I was a seed.

Autumn tour merch? Do I need to bring my wallet (apart from for Peggy's birthday present, of course)?
(I have a nagging feeling I may already have asked this but I'm damned if I can remember where or what the reply was)
