The Last Waltz NYC Premiere

10 April 2002

A pleasant warm evening in New York City. Robbie arrived first and was interviewed by several cable TV and radio reporters before entering the Ziegfeld Theater on West 54th Street. He mentioned more than once that watching the film both "breaks his heart and warms his heart" while referring to his former Bandmates as "great guys." Commenting further, he added that the new release (which incorporates previously unused footage) wasn't something that was just "slapped together" and that work on the soundtrack was done with great care taking six months and being re-mixed from scratch "note by note." The big surprise of the night for me was that Garth showed up!!
