Chapter 27 Page #2
I'll just have to blurt this out.
...I was at a recording session tonight.
With John Lennon and Paul McCartney.
They recorded an album together.
They recorded for 3 hours straight.
...I'm the engineer.
They met me, and they told
me how much they like my work.
To me, it's just so ecstatic to think
that John Lennon and Paul McCartney would
tell me how great they think my
work is. You know, from them to me
...everything, it all just...
...I just had to tell you that.
The cabbie told me that Jimmy Carter stayed
at that hotel. And when he was president, too.
He told me he did it to show
everyone what a regular guy he was.
I thought that was hysterical. The President
staying at a regular hotel like this.
That cracked me up.
I had a little bit of dough, but not so much
that I could stay in a place like that forever.
Goddamn money. It always ends
up depressing the hell out of you.
Very soon, he will leave his home.
If he stays outside and is not
frightened by his shadow...
that will be my sun.
- But if his shadow frightens him?
- 6 more weeks of winter!
I've got to keep that castle snowbound.
Please Sir, don't take him away. Not yet.
When she gives me a certain
sign, I know it's my fight too.
What sign, Sir?
- Steve. How you doing?
- I'm doing fine, and how'd you know my name?
You don't remember me?
I was here a little over a month ago.
From Hawaii?
- I was here to see John Lennon?
- Nope.
Okay, well, uh...
Last time, I didn't do it.
Get to meet him, I mean.
But I'm back.
Do you know is he, uh...
- Is he home?
- Actually I think he might be out of town.
- You mind if I wait and see?
- Be my guest. But, uh, step back a bit.
I gave a great deal of myself to what John Lennon
had said, and sung about, and told us all to do.
His music and his lyrics provided
me with everything I needed.
What I really love
about a song, or a book
...if it's really good. I mean if
the writer is really talking to you.
Then you feel like they're this
and you can just call them up
on the phone whenever you want.
Everyone needs something.
To find something.
Everyone is cracked and broken.
You have to find something to fix you.
To give you what you need.
To take you away
and make you whole.
I'm getting it for the articles.
Anything else?
Yes.
This.
I'm gonna be meeting him soon.
I went and read that
article on John Lennon.
It said all he ate was sushi and sashimi
and "Hershey's" bars with almonds.
And that he smoked French cigarettes.
And when they asked if the Beatles
would ever get back together, he said
just because a whole pile of dummies missed it the
first time, he shouldn't have to be crucified again.
