Music promoter loves Bill Murray's role in 'Rock the Kasbah'

New York: Ron Delsener, the legendary promoter who has booked gigs for Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix and the Rolling Stones, loved Bill Murray's portrayal of a music manager in "Rock the Kasbah".

Murray, 65, had said that his role in the film was partially based on Delsener, reported New York Post.

"When he lived here, we used to hang out a lot because he liked Van Morrison, and I was producing... We had many nights of fun," Delsener said.

"He saw me in action a few times, especially out in LA, yelling at people. I don't know, he's being kind because he knew (promoter) Bill Graham too. I thought he was good. I love him."
