Lou Reed to tour ‘Berlin’

Lou Reed has revealed plans to tour his 1973 album ‘Berlin’.

He has also confirmed the concerts will feature contributions from Antony Hegarty of Antony & The Johnsons.

The album, thought by many to be one of the most depressing albums of all time, has never been performed live.

The concerts run from December 14-17.
