I think Warren Zevon has come up here a couple times. I figured I'd let
any fans that don't already know, know the bad news. I know my day is
ruined now.

Warren Zevon has inoperable cancer
Sep. 12, 2002
"Werewolves of London" rocker Warren Zevon, the singer-songwriter whose
satire, cynicism and wit went on display in the 1978 album "Excitable Boy,"
has been diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer, his publicist said
Thursday. Zevon, 55, was told of the terminal diagnosis last month by
doctors and he is spending time with his grown children, spokeswoman Diana
Baron said. The entertainer lives in Los Angeles. "He has been diagnosed
with lung cancer which has advanced to an untreatable stage," she said,
adding he's writing and recording as many songs as possible and will be in
the recording studio next week. Zevon said in a statement, "I'm OK with it,
but it'll be a drag if I don't make it till the next James Bond movie comes
out." (AP)
