[QUOTE=Sgt._Joker]no... i only heard about it on the last day i had in london, it was just a re release of the magazine in a normal newsagent..

I did go to the Abbey Road cafe shop thing, bought a nice revolver mug and a abbey road shirt.[/QUOTE]

No loss, it was a little cheesy. Although it did have the coolest Magical Mystery Tourbus Cookie Jar I have ever witnessed. My Dad/Sister are there now, 3,000 miles away, with all of those terrorists :upset:

[QUOTE=Walrus Gumboot]I used to watch that show all the time, and my mom always used to go on about the conductor on the show. I think she annoyed me, and I remebered that, and then she mentioned it again and I realized it was Ringo :eek:

They almost got back together in the 70's when Lorne Michaels offered them 3000$ to play 3 songs. This was just a joke on a sketch, because people were offering the beatles thousands to get back together. As it so happens Paul was visiting john and Yoko in NY at the time, and they almost decided to do it, but later decided against it[/QUOTE]
God, if they only had. I remember George guest starred on an SNL episode a little after that, and he was talking to Lorne and he was still trying to convince him to do a performance.

**** the terroists.

I know this forum talks about the same topics in a cycle, and i'm sure the John Lennon death conspiracy has probably popped up 3 or 4 times but,
Theres a conspiracy that Charles Manson was a "brain washed" former fbi hitman, and how that the last 2 assainations (martin luther king, Robert Kennedy) happend when the president at the time was reaching the end of his run just like the president when john lennon was shot...

And "apparently" Charles Manson acted calmly after he'd taken john lennon out as if he thought John Lennon was a task that had been assinged to him.

also john lennon was one of the most influencial people at the time, hence a threat to the american president at the time because his protests on the Vietnam War etc constantly made front page and, in the example of the Vietnam war, John Lennon along with the media made the people realise what was really happening in the vietnam war and that in turn stopped the war and brought an end to a presidents reign.... what president wouldnt want john lennon out of their face.

Also apparently since 1972 or 74 john lennon's apparentment etc was being watched by the FBI...

Yeah, Georgewas trying to get the 3000$, but Lorne said thast was only for all four of them, and that just george wouldn't get nearly as much

Unless I'm mistaken thats around the time they were trying to deport Lennon, so the FBI may have been just there looking for reasons. It's an interesting theory though, I wonder if they killed Paul that way too.

Sgt._Joker 07-29-2005 07:48 PM

Paul who?

pigonthewing82 07-29-2005 07:50 PM

[QUOTE=Sgt._Joker]Paul who?[/QUOTE]

McCartney

Dr. Killgreedy 07-29-2005 07:51 PM

i still wanna know what yall think about paul's slaughter house when he's supposedly w/ the animal lovers org.?

Sgt._Joker 07-29-2005 07:55 PM

[QUOTE=pigonthewing82]McCartney[/QUOTE]


but he isnt dead yet is he?




any way about the slaughter house thing, i havnt heard alot about it, but if paul is doing it for farming, alot of people do the same thing, a paul is within his rights to do it, its different from slaughtering cats or something like that.

If its not for farming i dont know.

At the end of the day most things like that are just a big media beat up,

Yeah go listen to Revolution #9 and the end of Strawberry Feilds Forever and tell me otherwise :angry: . I guess somebody burried Paul.

Yeah I think the whole slaughter house thing has been blow up by the media. Its not the first time for the Beatles, lets not forget "we're bigger then Jesus"

And about the Paul thing, I was just saying that because of the "Paul is dead" theory. Its just another really out there beatles theory like the John Lennon thing so I just thought I'd merge the two.

Sgt._Joker 07-29-2005 08:10 PM

oic, well the whole Revolution #9 thing was a typical lennon/ beatle thing to do, make a synical joke about it and let the "theory" grow and grow for laughs.

In Strawberry Fields it actually says "cranberry sauce".

I thought it sounded somthing like that, to be honest I never heard the "I burried Paul", I mean I've heard the line its suppose to be, but I didn't see the Paul connection.

If you listen to the Anthology versions, it's pretty obvious that it is indeed 'cranberry sauce'

I love the anthologies

Charles Manson had nothing to do with the killing of John Lennon. He had nothing to do with the Beatles at all, except that he was obsessed with them and listened to the White Album when he killed people.

I was waiting for someone to get him. He made a real idiot out of himself, when your gonna talk about a conspiracy know who was actually involved.

Well actually, each beatle was accused of the murder by police, but luckily they all had good alibis for the night in question.

...Right...and where are you getting this information?

[QUOTE=HighVoltageRockNRoll]...Right...and where are you getting this information?[/QUOTE]

[url]http://www.beatles-discography.com/[/url] under the 'day by day' section, under August 9th 1969.

El_Goodo 07-30-2005 05:42 PM

Wow that's a great site. Im reading all the day by day stuff...it's pretty sad around were John's mom was run over.

Yeah I remember the day I heard about that. A couple days later I heard his song My Mummy's Dead. It was really sad that he seemed to have to hide being upset about it for the most part.

I think i've read about five years worth - its fascinating and really interesting.

I love it :D

I never knew that song was about that.

Has anyone heard John Lennon's Acoustic album that came out recently?

It's good.

Yep, thats where I heard it. I love the acoustic version of Imagine. I also thought it was cool how they gave you the cords to the songs, I was able to learn them while listening.

El_Goodo 07-30-2005 06:38 PM

:o I just read that back in the Cavern John put his cigarette under the strings of his guitar at the top. He did it before Van Halen! haha

That CD is great. For some reason the amazon reviews didn't make it sound very good, but I love it and most people here seem to love it too.

Wow that supprises me I can't really find much fault in it. I mean Cold Turkey is done better on the studio, but thats the only thing I can find wrong with it.

Yeah, that was really cool, I sat down and learnt Imagine on my acoustic the second I found out.
