A Man of the Decade – An Evening with John Lennon
Players Circle Theater 13211 McGregor Blvd., Fort Myers, FLIn 1969, the U.K Press Association named John Lennon “Man of the Decade.” Since John had recently been arrested for possession of cannabis and had just divorced his wife and married Yoko Ono, in their letter inviting him to make an acceptance speech for the award, they asked John not to talk about his “private life and illegal drugs.” It’s never wise to tell John Lennon what not to do.
