Contemporary Memorial on Elvis's passing on August 29, 1977, with a line lifted from the Clash. Late August, 1977, I think I would have been on the East Coast. I moved to NYC with $50 in pocket, traveling on Greyhound bus, living for a week on Bowery in a roach-infested room. Moved for a few weeks to Long Island City, the home of friends of friend--I was too young, too dumb to find work in New York City, not smart enough to try to sell myself on the street, and to weak to survive on my own.
