How's Yoko doing? I enjoyed seeing her art integrated into the MG release, especially seeing what you did with the deluxe box. I was curious if her own art, books, and music could be reprinted as something like that in the future? Her wisdom, humor, and humanism is really needed today. I miss seeing her posts online, but I love the wish trees site and Nutopia is amazing so I hope there's more and more opportunities to get her work out front like that.
You've liked my music and spiritual thread on X, and what you've done with the album and Nutopia really means a lot to me and I'm happy to be here and share what I'm about and connect with everyone else here. The first few times we interacted on social media, you made me cry, on one occasion I just laid down in bed for a few minutes, emotional but happy. You mean that much to me, I believe. It's my soul, my nature, I believe I'm John, your dad. I know you're aware of how I feel, say, and what I do, but I was wondering if there's anything I can do to show and prove myself to you? What are your feelings and advice for me? There was a recent album that came out that helped me cope and think on all of this, it's Bon Jovi's Forever and just the album cover reminds me of what I'm feeling and going through, but there's a song 'living proof' and it makes me think of this situation: 'This family tree's got nothing left to prove now/Me and you/We're the living proof/First the son becomes the father/Then the father is the son' I can't help but think of you and me when I hear that and I hope there's plenty left to prove. It would be a dream come true to talk to you and your brother in person, I think it would be a lot of fun. I think I made a wish on the tree to have tea with Yoko someday, that too would mean so much to me. I made lots of wishes but I think that's a good thing.
I listen to a lot of jazz radio, and I just loved Asterisms. Do you have any more music on the horizon? Animated movies?
I saw a St Vincent concert online last week, did you watch the Livestream with me? It was a brilliant show, and I thought she and the band was amazing, and when I found out about the bass player and your connection I thought that was awesome. GOASTT is great.
SMiLE or Pet Sounds? I posted 'Cabin Essence' on your birthday last year, is that a favorite of yours?
I enjoy your humor when you post online, and I also enjoy when you post hip hop, I think I've seen you post Dr Octagon, and Pete And Bas!
Their rhymes are incredible, and every time you post them I watch it and it just lifts me up laughing and vibing with it. Do you ever want to do that kind of music, I know you grew up with it, and you did an amazing jazz album so it wouldn't surprise me if you did. I'm curious, what's your favorite artist or album in that genre?
Thank you for doing what you do, and allowing me to do my thing here. I hope everything is going great in your world and I hope someday to make my dreams come true and hope it's a dream we can all dream together. I always felt like MG, Nutopia is your gift to me to help me through.

When I'm on Nutopia I keep thinking about this painting and I can't help but think about Anna. After everything I've been through and experienced, I have to ask, did she help you--was she apart of the project? My heart says yes, and I can't help but wonder.
I guess fitness was not a big thing back then as much? Like The Beatles were not lifting weights and stuff
Wondering when/if any memorabilia/QR codes will be at the Hard Rock in Hollywood, CA. Thanks!
See ya!
