I am just happy I found it! a-hard-days-night-john-6

 

And I think she was a great aunt you know? She just wanted the best for John! And I think it was a little bit of the fact that she tried to get him to stay in school and not do get to much into music is what made him into that rebel/musician a-hard-days-night-john-7!

You have to respect her for her convictions. When she talked about her telling John to stay in school it was as if he never made it big. I also thought it was hilarious when she talked about his "antics" in NYC by saying, "don't make me come to New York and get you" or something along those lines.

This, to me, sort of grounded John. It was nice to get another image of him that was more human than iconic. I hope I explained that the right way.

Thanks again for that. apple01 Sat, 11 Dec 2010 12:34:41 +0000 StarWisher on Aunt Mimi http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/john-lennon/aunt-mimi/#p17728 John Lennon http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/john-lennon/aunt-mimi/#p17728 Yeah, to talk about him in 1981. What a strong lady!
