I was there. These are my tickets.I am not in the ticket memorabilia business. I am simply an individual whose life has been blessed by growing up during an extraordinary time when going to a
Warren Zevon
concert like this could actually change your life.
About this show:
3/5/78 WARREN ZEVON (1/24/47-9/7/03) had just released his record "Excitable Boy" and it was getting a lot of spin on my turntable. A couple of years prior to this show, I had seen him play live and was wowed that he could also play guitar as well as he played piano and of course the guy could sing and write so here was a musical genius that had it all. At this show, Zevon stayed on his piano and was accompanied by his stalwart guitarist Waddy Wachtel and super-drummer Rick Marotta who together with Zevon brought that nights version of Lawyers Guns and Money to a height I'd not experienced before. Two stubs for this awesome night.
And let's not forget the storied venue itself…
THE BOTTOM LINE (2/11/74-1/22/2004) opened during my first year attending NYU living only a few blocks away. The iconic venues history is well documented and to this day people are well aware of its place in music history. I guess you could say I became kind of a fixture hanging out in front, checkin out the marquee to see who'd be playing next and how much money I'd have to save by not eating dinner to get to see my favorites at the best intimate music venue in New York with the greatest sound system and site lines. Both audience and artist knew that this was the Mecca for live music across a wide variety of genres.

I no longer need these physical manifestations as my memories are so vivid and my gratitude so deep but I could sure use the money now that I am a solo senior citizen having recently moved back to NJ after 50 years away.
