VH1 doing a Warren Zevon documentary

Author: Al Barger — Published: Jul 10, 2003 at 2:11 am 0 comments

From Billboard:

Warren Zevon will be the debut subject of a new VH1 series, "Inside Out," which launches Aug. 24. The program will chronicle the veteran singer/songwriter's struggle to complete "The Wind," his forthcoming album for Artemis Records, due Aug. 26. Zevon was diagnosed with the terminal lung cancer mesothelioma in August 2002.

It will be hosted by Billy Bob Thornton, and naturally has a bunch of big famous guests. Hopefully Warren will still be around to see it, and the release of his album. Heck, maybe he'll get another one made.
