Notes: John & Yoko attended another avant-garde event, this one put on by Jonas` friend George Maciunas at his house in New York. The occasion was a dumpling party.. don`t ask.

Jonas as always filmed the party for posterity, eventually commercially releasing it as part of the film "Scenes From The Life
of Andy Warhol" (June 1990) and then in a film celebrating the life of George Maciunas: "Zefiro Torna or Scenes From The Life
of George Maciunas" (1992) and finally in his film present to John: "Happy Birthday To John" (1995).
