First John and May sighting (The start of the Lost Weekend?)

Photos taken by Marie Lacey / the Greeting Committee

September 7, 1973 - Thanks to the Greeting Committee -- we have here the first photos of just John and May Pang.   May was known to the fans because she worked for Apple in New York City and was seen with John and Yoko from time to time.  So seeing them here together wouldn't have raised any big red flags and they do not look like they are in a romantic relationship in these photos at all.  But -- we all know what is about to happen!

 Micky Dolenz shared this slide recently on social media and I realized that it is one that I do not have in the "uh-oh files."   One can only guess what they are talking about.
