A John Lennon Special with Timothy William

Tonight from 7-10 on 91.7 KAXE, volunteer host Timothy William has a special John Lennon On the River. He's going to do John and Beatles stuff, plus a bunch of live stuff like the first 3 songs they did on the Ed Sullivan Show and The Dirty Mac. He's also got an acoustic performance of John Lennon in '71 at a rally to free John Sinclair, and there will also be a couple of sets of covers and some surprises as well.

Michael Small, another KAXE volunteer, called the station this morning and mentioned he lived in Brooklyn when John was murdered and that, "New Yorkers were stunned, and they can be pretty callous. It's hard to shock a New Yorker - and EVERYONE was just stunned." New Yorkers, the U.S. and the World.

Join us in celebration and remembrance on the John Lennon Special tonight with Timothy William starting at 7 on 91.7 KAXE Grand Rapids, 89.9 Brainerd, 105.3 Bemidji, and streaming at http://www.kaxe.org.
