Warren Zevon has been diagnosed with lung cancer. He's long been one of my favorite musicians and I am very sad that I never took the chance to see him play before now. It seems unlikely that I will have another chance.

*nod* I saw him play at AXIS, with Jill Sobule opening, on his most recent tour. (Never did get him to sign that copy of UA's Lawyers, Guns and Money.) I suppose that a good chunk of Life'll Kill Ya can be interpreted in that light:

"Let me break it to you, son, your shit's fucked up... you know the shit that used to work? Well it don't work now..."

"Don't let us get sick... don't let us get old..."N

Yeah. I've been grim all morning... woke up to my alarm radio playing a really pathetic "tribute."

"Hey, Warren Zevon sure did have a knack for making all his songs sound the same... give us a call, Warren, we all love you here!" Feh, feh.

btw, hiya, nice to virtually meet you and all that stuff. What brought you to my journal?

Well, I've seen your name cross several other lists I'm on -- bostongamers, nGo, WZL (I think), other gaming related lists -- and decided that your adventures and exploits might be interesting to follow.e

Light dawns like a dawning thing! Wait, you didn't ever hang out on Eyrie, did you?

Sure did. I was "IQJasonS" back then.s

Well, there you go. I seem to think I went by Garrett. Or Bryant. One or the other.
