The world’s first John Lennon Museum opens this week, and it’s not in Liverpool, London, or New York. It’s in a Japanese town 30 km north of Tokyo. Why there? “Could have something to do with money. Construction company Taisei Corp. reached an agreement with Yoko Ono last year to build the museum on two floors of the spanking-new Saitama Super Arena.” – Daily Yomiuri (Japan)
