Sean Lennon and his Ghost of a Saber Toothed Tiger performed Sunday night at the Troubadour in Los Angeles. It was sort of an interesting convergence that Sean was in the same place that his dad John Lennon was kicked out of in a now infamous incident in 1974 also involving Harry Nilsson and May Pang. (See Rolling Stone's account of the incident here.) The incident is probably the most well-known during Lennon's post-Beatles "Lost Weekend" separation from Yoko Ono.

Steve, Stop envisaging the negative, who among us hasn't gotten drunk/pissed and taped a Kotex to our forehead. :)
Lennon was a drunken infant most of his life.
It would have helped him if someone would beaten the living hell out of him. It also might have knocked some sense into him at that time and he never would have gone back to Yoko.
Actually Tommy Smothers had REQUESTED Nilsson to heckle them because their prior show at the club had gone down a bit dull and Tommy asked Nilsson to liven things up when Nilsson and Lennon were slated to see the show that night! Peter Lawford should have minded his own business and not asked the club manager to kick Lennon and Nilsson out of the club. Tommy Smothers had the situation well in hand and was expecting it!
