Word on the street is that Sean Lennon was recently spotted at the Dripolator in Asheville. From loyal reader Pancho:

Hey Ashmaster,

My friend Xavi just told me that he saw Sean Lennon in the Dripolator with some “LA types”.  Any idea what he is doing in town?

A quick check of Lennon’s Twitter feed shows that he’s on tour, and was just in Charlotte. It looks like he’s headed to Nashville, so it makes sense that he may have stopped off in Ashvegas.

Here are a couple of his most recent tweets:

Hey, anyone know where the best eats are in Charlotte NC? We’re headed there now on one day off this tour.

Wow, thanks for all the recommends! Must be good food town, no 2 people said same place. I wonder…we need to fit a lot of people as well.

    We passed his van last night on 40 heading to Asheville after their show in Charlotte. We honked and waved. They waved back.
