your week out? I mean, a little bit
there. How'd your weekend go? Oh my gosh.
It was, it was a really, really good
busy weekend, but a really, really good weekend.
Same time next year opened on Friday,
and, we
we opened to some some really good crowds
and a sold out Sunday. And,
it's people were were having such a good

(00:45):
time. There was just laughter all throughout. Like,
the the jokes were really landing. Me and
Jose were really in in sync as our
our scene partners because it's just the two
of us doing a two hander play. Right.
And, and, yeah, it was just a great
time. And we've got one weekend left, and,
ticket sales are still rolling in. So, yeah,
looks like we got a hit on our
hands. We'll be talking about that later on.
Right on. Good news. Yeah. You were telling

(01:06):
me behind the scenes there the,
you and your wardrobe changing to from fifties
to the seventies. Yeah. The wild thing is,
like, it goes from 1951 to 1975,
and each scene is a new era. And
so therefore, I need a new style and
a new outfit each era. So I'm back
there, like, with a dresser, like, speed dressing
to get and, like, ripping off, like, wigs
and putting on, like, stuff and just, yeah,
getting ready to go as, like, one single

(01:28):
song is playing and the set is changing,
and then we get right back out there.
Yeah. That's the old one. It's wild. Yeah.
Yeah. But we've got it with a finely
tuned instrument here. Yeah. It's going very, very
well. Very smooth. And so, like you said,
one more weekend, that would be great because
we'll give them all the juicy details on
that. Absolutely. Yeah. I got enough. Mhmm. Yeah.
I guess I'm just boring nowadays. I don't
have the events going on. Got nothing going

(01:48):
on, Bruce. Just Just another relaxing weekend with
Junior. And hang on. Well, I mean, I
did the paper Mhmm. You know, and everything.
We got the paper all done last week,
and I got it delivered out.
And,
being on the computer
Mhmm. And then writing this, you know, the
scripts I'm doing and stuff like that, it's
like I just
I gotta,
you know, stop for a minute, you know,
get off the computer for a minute. So

(02:09):
that is one thing I I didn't do
this weekend. It was on there too much.
Just enough where I have to and then
just stayed off of it, you know, just
because I need to do that to myself
to deprogram and everything from the Absolutely.
Yeah. It's hard. I'm on there
for you know? And then when the events
are going on, it's crazy. You know? Then
I'm on there even twice as much. So
it's like, I like to take the

(02:29):
times I have and just like, okay. Let's
just
de stress out from the computer, you know,
and stay off of it for a minute,
you know, because I'm on it so much.
But yeah. So that's what I did this
weekend and, you know, watch some sports and
Good for you. Everything like that and just
enjoy life. Yeah. So yeah. Gosh. I forgot
to even mention. I got slimed this weekend.

I was like, I was like, like, a
normal person. Of everything. Yeah. There was the

this might become an annual thing if I'm
very unlucky.
That's so funny. That's so funny because I

(03:12):
yeah. When I went in and delivered papers,
I saw the little poster that had you
right at the top there and the four
four people getting slimed there with the line.
And I said, oh, there's cat. Right at
the top. There's slime. Yeah. Yep. I was
I was the one that was, like, last
to be executed as it were. Yeah. Yeah.
And I got to wait and watch everybody
else, and then it was my turn. And
the kids did it? Oh, the the kids,
so we had to it was three gallons
of slime in, like, a bucket. So we

(03:33):
needed, like like, you know, strong dudes, like,
dumping them over our edge. Oh, geez. Okay.

few quotes from the late great Beatle, John
Lennon. He was born, October 9,
1940.
He says, you don't need anybody to tell
you who you are or what you are.
You are what you are.
If everyone demanded peace instead of another television
set, then there'd be peace.

(10:14):
The thing sixties did was to show us
the possibilities and the responsibility that we all
had. It wasn't the answer. It just gave
us a glimpse of the possibility. And last
but not least,
yeah, when you're drowning, you don't say, I
would be incredibly pleased if someone would have
the foresight to notice me drowning and come
and help me. You just scream. Hope you
enjoyed this week's quotes from John Lennon with

one. Nice. Deep

their families grow, and they themselves transform, yet
their bond endures with humor, tenderness, and honesty.
Filled with laughter, nostalgia, and moments that tug
at the heart, this Tony award winning play
beautifully captures the joys and trials of love
and friendship over the course of a lifetime.

Did you know
that John Lennon had a life long obsession
with the number nine?

(19:36):
It's true. And here's the story. Well, he
was born 10/09/1940.
He lived at 9 Newcastle Road in Liverpool,
and the neighborhood name, Wavertree, also has nine
letters.
One of his early songs written while he
was a teenager was one after nine zero
nine.
The Beatles' first gig at the Cavern Club
was on 02/09/1961.

(19:56):
Their manager, Brian Epstein, first saw them on
11/09/1961,
and their first Ed Sullivan show appearance was
on 02/09/1964.
Well, Lennon first met his future wife, Yoko
Ono, on 11/09/1966.
Their son, Sharlene, was born on 10/09/1975,
which was also John's birthday.

(20:17):
His famous avant garde sound collage revolution nine
was inspired by an engineer's voice repeating the
phrase number nine.
For his 1974
album walls and bridges, he included the song
number nine dream, which peaked at number nine
on the Billboard charts. Well, in New York,
he was shot and killed on 12/08/1980,
but due to the time difference,

(20:39):
it was already December 9 in Liverpool.
