I understand that many of you are probably confused as to why and how I managed to show up here, of all places, after three years. In reality, I haven't been gone, in the meaning of the word. It's more fitting to say I've been Missing In Action. Everyone knows what happened to me three years ago, so I won't bother to explain that. If you don't know, I leave it to you to go look it up or ask a Who-fan friend of yours.
After it happened, I got a taste of what the afterlife is all about. Frankly, it wasn't all it was cracked up to be (aside from the fact that I got to have my 30 year old body back, something I missed reading in the small print, but a welcome surprise!). I decided I wanted to spend more time here on earth, so here I am. I've been keeping a low profile, though I've made my presence known from time to time. As of now, I've decided to get in touch with some old friends, since life is too short to fuck around. Take it from someone who knows. I'm more of an observer, so this set-up suits me quite well. I'll still help out when I'm needed by someone close to me for any reason, but it may not be readily apparent what's actually going on. I really just wanted to be able to remain an active part of my friends' lives.
For the record, I still play my bass as well. You all know I'd play at the opening of an envelope if given the chance, haha. Regardless of everything that has happened, I'm still the same old John I've always been. I suppose that's all I can really explain right now, I hope I've helped to clarify matters.
Lord, am I ever glad that yesterday is over.
