This year marks the 70th anniversary of the birth of John Lennon!
There are multiple events, films, CDs, tours, shows, books, exhibits, festivals
taking place throughout the world to celebrate this landmark occasion. It's bittersweet of
course because John isn't here to share the celebrations and receive the thanks of millions of
us for the pleasure and enlightenment he gave us, and gives us still.

products being released that are part of the celebrations. If there's something taking place

Stars
come together to salute John Lennon's 70th birthday
Charity Concert This Saturday in NYC Features Artists Aged Nine to Ninety
This Saturday, October 9th, is the exact 70th anniversary of John Lennon's birth. There are
multiple celebrations taking place worldwide. But one of the most poignant and joyous salutes
will take place in a concert hall in Manhattan that is just 6 blocks from both the Dakota
building where John Lennon lived for the last 9 years of his life - and from the Strawberry
Fields Memorial to Lennon in Central Park.
For in the concert hall of the quaintly named "Society For Ethical Culture" (located at the
corner of West 64th Street and Central Park West) this Saturday night will be a collection of
music stars and friends of John Lennon who are gathering to pay an informal musical tribute to
Lennon with a charity concert benefitting the human rights organization Amnesty International.
