Robert Hilburn At LA Press Club This Thursday

From the LA Press Club website:

For 35 years, Robert Hilburn chronicled the evolution of rock music — from the Beatles to U2 to Green Day — in the Los Angeles Times. One of the most influential music writers in the nation, his reviews helped launch Elton John in America and popularize other top artists. His myriad adventures included being the only journalist present for Johnny Cash‘s concert at Folsom prison and being invited to watch cartoons with Michael Jackson in his bedroom. Hilburn’s new book traces his journey through the rock n’ roll age and how the music affects us all. He will take questions from Geoff Boucher, an arts reporter whose diverse work in the Times recently included a ode to Hilburn and his long career, and from the audience.
