Written by Johnson Stephen on March 5, 2021
When concert promoter Danny Zelisko says, ”I’ve got some stories to tell” he isn’t kidding.In his remarkable new book, ‘ALL EXCE$$ Occupation:Concert Promoter’, takes you both backstage and on stage with music’s top stars, recounting his incredible five-decade career in which he has produced over 10,000 concert events throughout the USA.
”I say that the book took me four years to write, but it’s really 60 years in the making” Zelisko says before adding ”Since all this stuff actually happened, the story wrote itself. I just had to be there to decipher it, which was the hard part!.”
Along with his vivid, insightful and highly entertaining recollections, Zelisko shares an eye-popping array of never-before-seen photos from his personal archives that might have readers thinking he’s a Rock ‘n’ Roll Zelig: There’s stories and shots of him with Alice Cooper, Roger Waters, Aerosmith, the Grateful Dead, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Jeff Beck, Jon Bon Jovi, Genesis, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Seger – as they say, the list goes on and on.
Zelisko in the book talks about his first impressions and situations that followed with concert business legends Bill Graham and Shep Gordon, who went on to be his close friends and mentors throughout his career.
What message does Zelisko hope readers will take away from the book? ”Anything and everything is possible” he says before adding ”I want to inspire people – whatever they want to do, they can do it. You see a picture of me with Robert Plant and you might think, how did this guy get there? That’s the story I tell. And it can happen to you, too. You just have to believe in yourself and never quit.”
