So...next Friday...if you're a hopelessly bored resident of the Pittsburgh area and you're not holding tickets to Meghan Trainor or Nicki Minaj or The Oak Ridge Boys or The Lemonheads...and you happening to be driving through Millvale...

Lou Reed - Last Great American Whale (Live at Farm Aid 1990)
Lou Reed performs "Last Great American Whale" live at the Farm Aid concert in Indianapolis, Indiana on April 7th, 1990. Farm Aid was started by Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp in 1985 to keep family farmers on the land and has worked since then to make sure everyone has access to good food from family farmers. Dave Matthews joined Farm Aid's board of directors in 2001. For more information about Farm Aid, visit: http://farmaid.org/youtube Farm Aid's performances are donated by the artists in order to raise funds and raise awareness for family farmers. They've raised their voices to help — what can you do? Lou Reed - Last Great American Whale (Live at Farm Aid 1990)
