Psychic phenomenon – precognitive dreams, strange coincidences, and intuitive hunches about people we care for – is always an interesting topic of discussion. It usually happens with relatives and close friends, but in this case I am talking about George Harrison. A few Beatle friends have shared with me some “strange” experiences they had between the hours preceding his death on November 29, 2001 and before we heard the news on November 30. Maybe some of you had similar experiences.
Writing about this reminded me of the profound experience I had the night George was stabbed and nearly killed in his home on December 30, 1999. I figured out later that the attack must have occurred about four hours before this. I was about to get into bed, and impulsively picked up the book, The Ballad of John & Yoko. I happened to open it to an article about John’s murder, and became completely engrossed in the memories of the doorman at the Dakota apartments. The details as he recalled them were so graphic, it felt as though I was reliving the whole terrifying experience, one second at a time. After that I had trouble falling asleep and vowed to never read such upsetting stuff like that before bed again.
