I read this today in HITS -- this is probably going
to be an expensive ticket, since it's a benefit, but
for those who can afford it and live in the L.A.
area, just wanted to get the word out -- Bryan
ATKINSON HONORED: Veteran industry A&R
exec and one-time Zombies member Paul
Atkinson will be presented with NARAS'
President's Award on Jan. 27 at the
West Hollywood House of Blues.
The event will also help raise funds
for the ailing Atkinson, who has had
two liver transplants, undergoes
regular dialysis due to kidney failure
and was recently diagnosed with
inoperable cancer, as well as The Gift
of Life Foundation, which promotes
organ donor awareness. An auction of
music memorabilia is being planned by
WSM's Jimmy Edwards
(jimmy.edwards@wmg.com). Radio
personality Shadoe Stevens will host,
with performances by Zombies Rod Argent
and Colin Blunstone, Brian Wilson,
Mr. Mister's Richard Page, Michael
Penn, Patty Smyth, Mickey Thomas, Don
Was and Bruce Hornsby.
