El debut The Velvet Underground & Nico cumplió 50 años este año, y para celebrarlo, el ex miembro de la legendaria formación, John Cale, realizó dos actuaciones en la Academia de Música de Brooklyn en Nueva York.
Los dos conciertos, realizados el pasado jueves y viernes, contaron con el apoyo, como ocurrió hace unos meses en París, de otros músicos, como Animal Collective, Caroline Polachek (ex-Chairlift), MGMT o Kurt Vile. Hoy, además, John Cale celebrará su 75 cumpleaños con un concierto en el que ya interpretará canciones de su carrera en solitario.
