John Lennon birthday tribute w/ the Number 9 Orchestra & special guests

Born midweek, Oct. 9, in Liverpool, John Winston Lennon came within a hair’s breadth of moving to New Zealand at age 5. There’s a Crowded House/Neil Finn joke in there, which the late Dr. O’Boogie himself should’ve come up with on his upcoming 82nd birthday – celebrated in the pandemic afterglow of Peter Jackson’s 468-minute Get Back jawbreaker. Austonian Beatlemaniacs Stephen Doster, Darin Murphy, and Randy Miller lead the nearly dozen-strong #9 Orchestra, the former two channeling the birthday boy and touring him, respectively, while the latter All ATX producer underwrites all those fab Sixties covers and comps as a tributist himself. —73703
