Same Time Next Year part 3





Currently on ebay, someone is selling some "new" photos taken from when John and Yoko saw the play "Same Time Next Year" in 1975. Here is the story (taken from the ebay auction)


Photographs of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, taken on the streets of New York City in 1979 ! This is my story. With inside information, i was told that on a certain day, John Lennon and Yoko Ono would be attending a Broadway show ( Same Time, Next Year ) in the theater district of New York City, in the summer of 1979 !
Close to showtime a limousine pulls up, and sure enough, John Lennon and Yoko Ono step out. They were whisked in so fast, i blicked, and they were in the theater !
Determined to get a photo, i waited for the show to end. Me, standing on a garbage can outside the theater, towering over the crowd, John and Yoko exit the theater.
They walked toward me to their limousine, which was behind me, as my 8mm movie camara was filming this. As John and Yoko walked past me, i yelled out "John" !
as i extended my hand, and John Lennon shook my hand !!! As you can see, John Lennon is looking up at me, as i stood on the garbage can ! This was the last frame !


This is an interesting story, but I find it odd that the person says the year was 1979! The play, Same Time Next Year opened in 1975 and closed in 1978 (basic google search can get you opening and closing of all Broadway plays...not hard). So she did not shake John's hand in 1979, it was 1975 and Yoko was pregnant with Sean.
