For John’s birthday on Wednesday, I brought in a huge card and got a bunch of people to sign it:

I just got called ‘Sissum Slime’ by my sister and I don’t know how to feel about this nicknomer a-hard-days-night-paul-7  

Update: I’ve been upgraded to ‘Electric Sissum Slime’ (after my sister’s recent obsession with liberally overusing the phrase ‘electric slime’ for everything). I can’t say I’m particularly opposed to this nickname. ahdn_george_06

This makes me angry. The Lennon Wall in Prague can only be used by professional artists now. Glad I got to write on it once in my life.

I wonder what makes one qualify as a professional artist. I’d love to hear their criteria. 

Also, and this goes without saying, The Beatles were and are universal. This is like saying that non artists aren’t capable of appreciating their work.

I've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

While i agree that what they’re doing is wrong, i can’t blame them for doing it. If 2 people were able to completely spray the wall white except for the phrase “Wall is over”, what’s to stop someone from spray painting “Violence is good, peace is bad” or some other degrading comment on the wall that’s 100% contradictory of John’s philosophy.

Bit stupid, surely making a Lennon Wall “professional artists only” defeats the entire purpose of a Lennon Wall?

The wall does look a mess much of the time though:

Tourists-writing-on-the-Lennon-Wall-in-summer-2019.-via-Raymond-Johnston.jpgImage Enlarger

Which must be annoying when you commission pieces of artwork you expect to last a while but are often unrecognisable in days. And the article does say that a small part of the wall will be reserved for fans messages, etc., so you’ll probably still be able to sign Prague’s Lennon Wall, @Ahhh Girl, if you get to make it back there.

Jesus she needs to get checked for scoliosis there. If she were leaning any further back she’d be on the floor.
