Imagine the wiry filament of energy Perry Farrell meeting the one-and-only Lou Reed for the first time. This 'meeting-of-minds' occurred after Lou's Keynote Speech at the SXSW convention center this past Thursday, March 13th.

Keep in mind- since Lou is sensitive to media- this is a rare occurrence to capture him talking so openly on camera.
Plus, since Lou had discussed a lot of his film "Berlin" during his speech, we thought it would be unconventional & kooky to provide Perry with"Berlin" questions in which we thought Lou may be interested (the Mog 'roll') and have Perry serve as a MOG Reporter for a day.

NOTE : Lou's press agent also gave us about 35 seconds to set up so forgive the shaky cameras and low-light footage and relish instead the intensity of the moment.
