It's not his birthday here yet. But I guess it really is because he was born in a different time zone. So, Happy Birthday wherever you are! I wish he were here to celebrate it.  :'(
Tomorrow it's an all Lennon day on VH1 Classics. I'll be crying, but I'll watch. Even though I think they're gonna being showing quite a bit of Yoko. Her rant on the click click, click, I love you thing was quite interesting.

Who'd just like to wish you a very happy birthday and
Happy trails to you until we meet again
Happy trails to you, keep smiling until then.
Happy trails to you until we meet again!

Happy Birthday, John, from the Full Tilt Band!!

What'd I say ?

You wrote another song.

No, it's this song.

I'd like to do it.

Are you ready ?

Of course.

Is the tape moving ? I can do this one in one take.

I'm gonna do it again ?

Yeah.

OK by me. What ? Well, I'll do the best I can I'd like to do a song of great social and political import.

Here is what I found:

Birth Data
Birth Name: Lennon, John
Birth Date: 10/09/1940 (Oct 09, 1940)
Birth Time: 18:30 (06:30 PM) GDT (+0:00)

So that is 7:30 pm BST, his local time I believe.

I'm have to do Chemistry for the next 2 1/2 hours but then I can go home and finish celebrating my own birthday. I already got the Anthology DVDs and of V1 of the CDs as two of the prezzies I opened this morning. Something tells me the rest aren't going as exciting. But at least my family are watching A Hard Day's Night with me.  ;D

By the way I guess John's 29th birthday was not a good one. Read this in Today in Beatles history:

1969, October 9 - Yoko is taken to the King's College Hospital, London. She suffers a miscarriage.

I want to wish a very happy birthday to John (and Sean). John was an amazing and unique person. Talented, charming, funny, good-looking. He's a great musician and songwriter, and so today I just spent the whole day watching the stuff on tv and listening to his music. On my bedroom door, I made a collage with a bunch of pics, quotes, and drawings. Just my little tribute to John.

We all still love and miss you John, thank you so much for everything!

Don't know if this is already started........but..........please change/correct if so..........
My dear loving John would have be 68 today.  Can you all believe this???  I know I'm a bit ahead, but as the forum time reads, it's already October 9.  God bless his soul, where he may be.  John was, IS, my favorite Beatle and I'm still amazed at the way his life was ended.
I love you John and you are in ALL of our thoughts.........

Happy Birthday John. 68, wow.  I wish he was still here to celebrate.

He is greatly missed by so many people.  He helped change music, culture, the world!

It is so tragic the way his life ended, he may be gone but he will NEVER be forgotten. I truly believe that.

Andy, that is a really nice picture of John.

I told everyone at work today that it is his birthday and you would not believe how many people feel saddened by the lose of John.  Everyone at work knows what a Beatle fan I am, but I was really surprised at how many people really felt something when I told them about today.  He is truly missed.

Today is a celebration of his life, his music, and his memories.

This photo was taken in Stockholm (where I live) in october 1963 on a wall beside the town hall. So me and my friend went to the wall to celebrate the birhtday of John. We had some cake and played some songs on our guitars.  :)

We're going there again october 24th cuz then it's exactly 45 years since Beatles was there!

What are you all doing for John's birthday? Unfortuantly I'll be heading to France on Friday I may lay some flowers on the John Lennon Bench up town. It's quite sad that no one seems to notice his name you don't see many tourists take pics of it.

But I was thinking of watching Imagine John Lennon.  ;)

Post by: nyfan(41) on October 08, 2009, 05:40:07 PM
because he died here new york is over the top with it

i think some people go to strawberry fields in central park or the dakota where he lived and light candles, singalong vigils and so on
then the classic rock station plays

- give peace a chance
- woman
- imagine

honestly, i'll try and avoid listening to his music that day . . . . well, maybe one or two songs  :D HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN !

Gosh darn it, Johnny!  I put my birthday greeting in Jane's thread!  I'll just have to repeat it, won't I?   ;D

Happy Birthday, John!

You might have only been on this Earth for 40 years, yet you made the most beautiful, harrowing and honestly joyous impact upon the world.  I've never met you, but I'll never forget you nonetheless.  Thank you for the music you've brought to the world, and for putting yourself out there as a constant target for the press, the public, the lovers and haters alike, just to try and bring some peace and love to the world.  And most of all, thank you for showing people that anyone in the world can do anything in the world; you started out at nothing and achieved so much, and touched so many people's lives along the way.  I hope you're smiling up there upon your big fluffy cloud, or wherever you are, love.    :-*

Peace and love, forever.

Am I on ? OK.

Hello, John, this is Janis,
Who'd just like to wish you a very happy birthday and
Happy trails to you until we meet again
Happy trails to you, keep smiling until then.
Happy trails to you until we meet again!

Happy Birthday, John, from the Full Tilt Band!!

What'd I say ?

You wrote another song.

No, it's this song.

I'd like to do it.

Are you ready ?

Of course.

Is the tape moving ? I can do this one in one take.

I'm gonna do it again ?

Yeah.

OK by me. What ? Well, I'll do the best I can I'd like to do a song of great social and political import.
It goes like this:


I'm glad that I found this quote! In September 1970, Janis recorded a Birthday message to John Lennon. Here is the actual recording by the late great JANIS JOPLIN, it would be one of her final recordings. It was recorded between the 24th to the 26th of September 1970. Happy Birthday John.

John was turning 38 and Sean was 3 in 1978 when they celebrated at Central Park's Tavern on the Green. They celebrated there the next year, too.

It's hard to believe John would be 75 today. On John's 24th birthday in 1964 The Beatles were traveling to the first stop of their only British tour of 1964. Much to the delight of these folks they stopped for lunch at the Old England Hotel in Sutton-on-Trent.

Kev, that's the Yamaha L-52 Custom Yoko gave John in 1977...

Bob Dylan had one too...

Kev,  John's Yamaha L-52 Custom was a high-end guitar made in Yamaha's Custom Shop during Yamaha's "Golden Era" of the 1970s.  A nice one of that vintage would cost about $10,000 today.

The L-52 could be special-ordered with black or tortoise pick guards...

I was trying to dig up a YouTube version of an Instagram clip I found of John and Yoko at the Everson Museum in my hometown of Syracuse, NY. I didn't find one, but I did find this clip of John and friends celebrating his birthday at the Hotel Syracuse:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3srHCFf7hE# (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B3srHCFf7hE#)

And here's the Instagram clip, which was posted on the Syracuse History thread. I'm pretty sure it's not hidden behind a paywall. I hope not, anyway.
