John Lennon Quotes

These are two of my favorite John Lennon quotes:

" I'm not going to change the way I look or feel to conform to anything. I've always been a freak. So I'm a freak and I have to live with that, you know. I'm one of those people"

"When I was 5 years old my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life."

Brooklyn Bowl








Tash Neal of the London Souls





Dr. John


I went to the Soul to Soul II concert the other night, it was a charity event benefiting the victims of the disaster in Haiti. Held at the Brooklyn Bowl, the concert featured a set by The London Souls and two from Lettuce. With special guests Dr. John, Maceo Parker, and Questlove. The music was great, the venue was amazing, and everyone was dressed super cool.
