Well nothing was done, was it?

Saw him last week and he played this one (although with more gusto!).

At the time he was fucked on coke and he admits it whilst recording these rocktoplast concerts, though there are some great Cale moments during these performances and even at his worst its still pretty damn good

John Cale looks as though he was rather tired that night.

@quelian

Yeaah, Beirut is one from best rocking Cale song. I heard it last year in dresden and it was powerfull despite Cale is twenty years older than here.
