I saw Warren live at the Bridge Hotel, Rozelle in 1992. We were 10 feet from the stage. My wife Lisa, and our friend Adele sat on the bar. I've seen most of my favourites and this was pretty good. More importantly, it was WARREN ZEVON (!) and we were within speaking (ok, shouting) distance. Play it All Night Long, Desperadoes Under The Eaves, Roland etc., just a genius. A highlight of my life for sure.
