FBI FINGERS AUCTION ITEM: TMZ.com is reporting that John Lennon's application for U.S. residency, complete with fingerprints, was pulled from auction from gottahaverockandroll.com by the FBI because it was government property. We saw the item still pictured in a display link on the site late last night, but not listed for auction. A Beatle item still available, however, is a page with signatures by John Lennon and Paul McCartney said to have been signed in 1958, which the site claims are the earliest known Beatle signatures.
LENNON TRIBUTE SEASON IN LIVERPOOL: A great link for information about the John Lennon celebrations in Liverpool is the Liverpool Echo's Tribute Season site. It has stories, pictures and event information.
YOKO AT THE GRAMMY MUSEUM: We have some pictures of Yoko Ono's appearance at the Grammy Museum on Sunday. They're in the slideshow.
X FACTOR MEET 'ABBEY ROAD': The Daily Mail has a picture of "X Factor" contestants pretending to be the Beatles and simulating the "Abbey Road" pose.
WONDER WHERE THEY GOT THAT IDEA: The picture at the left is a classical CD. As Mr. Christopher in Tokyo wrote us, "Wonder where they got that idea?" Hmmm.

Got it, thanks. I keep an eye on it. Don't always catch them right off, but I do eventually.
