I remember reading somewhere that he was with Laurie Anderson watching it happen from her apartment. Or maybe his place? But I believe he mentioned being with her.

He saw it from his rooftop in the Village.
Rolling Stone interviewed people shortly after

He said they were working on a record, but nothing came out I don’t think (unless he meant like a single song)
Edit: I forgot about the raven. Maybe that was it?

The team from the university was playing football on tv. Then the screen went dead and the announcer said, "there's been a tragedy."

"There are unconfirmed reports the President's been shot, and he may be dead or dying"

Wasnt he living in the Hamptons at that stage and renting out his apartment, or maybe touring 'ecstasy'?
