I feel like the quotes about Paul and Linda from John's St. Regis Hotel interview (Sept. 5, 1971) get so much attention that it's easy to miss some of the more minor wtfery:
John: So now I feel like going out on the road. I feel like going out with Yoko, and taking a really far-out show on the road, a mobile, political, rock and roll show, a mobile, political Plastic Ono Bandshow. . . . Yoko: With clowns as well. John: . . . and have something going on in the foyer, and something going on in the audience, and not just everything on stage. Int.: When you say political, what do you mean exactly? John: Well, I mean political, because everything I do is political. I would take people with me who could speak to the kids, who could speak to them in the foyer, catch them on the way out. Panthers. Weathermen. They can hand all their gear out.
Pour one out for the tour that never happened, featuring John and Yoko on the road with the Black Panthers, the Weathermen, and clowns.
