I walked around the areas where the bombs were discovered the next night, there were tons of people in the streets as usual.  No one seemed very phased.  I think dealing with terrorism is much more integrated into the culture there than it was here prior to 9/11.  
 
 The Lou Reed Berlin show was great, hopefully he'll do a US tour of it.  I was again able to get a half price ticket out front.  There's an active scalping market there similar to here, meaning cheap tickets are plentiful for gigs that did not sell out.  Both The Who and Lou Reed were two nights, so that probably helped.
