John Lennon Wall – Prague, Czech Republic

John Lennon Wall Prague

I read yesterday that the John Lennon Wall in Prague recently got painted over in white. The only writing left on it is “Wall Is Over!” in reference to Lennon and Ono’s peace message “War Is Over!”

Arctic Monkeys in Baton Rouge, LA

A year ago today, I waited in line outside of the Varsity Theatre in Baton Rouge for over 6 hours to see the Arctic Monkeys. It is, to this day, the best concert I have ever been to in my life.

I had heard a little bit of their new album “Hummingbird.” But, I was more familiar with their older one, “Gorilla Manor.”
