NEW YORK (AP) — Not enough people came out to give peace a chance on Saturday. More than 2,000 people joined Yoko Ono in New York’s Central Park in an attempt to set a world record for the largest group of people forming a peace sign in honor of John Lennon’s birthday.

Trump used their song “It’s The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)” at a rally to oppose the Iran deal on Wednesday in Washington. R.E.M. say they did not authorize the use of the song but there are “things of greater importance at stake here.” They say American voters should not let “grandstanding politicians” distract them from the pressing issues of the day.

MANSFIELD, Mass. (AP) — Police in Mansfield, Massachusetts, have a message for Parrotheads: no homemade potties, and leaving them behind is gross. The Sun Chronicle reports fans at Jimmy Buffett’s Mansfield concert Saturday left behind seven to ten makeshift outhouses, most commonly made with a 5-gallon bucket, a foam pool noodle and a tent. Police Lieutenant Sam Thompson says 75 to 100 people were instructed to take down their outhouses. Police Chief Ronald Sellon says Buffett’s crowd has been primary offenders in this regard, and leaving the outhouses behind is “unsanitary and just disrespectful.”
