sundog Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 http://breakingdownthnews.blogspot.no/2015/02/former-beatle-ringo-starr-claims-real.html I have no idea if there is any truth to this or not - if it is true, it could be the biggest Wool Sock covering the World's proverbial eyes. If not, it makes a great story! This site could be nothing more than an Onion wannabe - I just don't know. I DO know, this is the 2nd time I've heard about it in the last 24 hours. So, my knowledgeable friends..... Please Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Dad Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Ok you scaredme please don't do that. Maybe you could just change the title. You could really help a lot of people save on laundry bills. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Principled Man Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 If not, it makes a great story! It's a great piece of satire! :haz: :haz: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edm2112 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I want to say there have been books written about this. They usually run alongside stories people have claiming that they've seen Elvis still alive...(check out youtube and there's an interesting video of someone claiming that Elvis was an extra in the movie Home Alone) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Oh yeah, this was a rumor going around years and years ago. Funny as heck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Analog Cub Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Macca's on the conspiracy theorists' ever growing list that they either died on purpose and put in a fake or they faked their death. As pointed out already, Elvis, then JFK, Marilyn Monroe, and Cobain I've also heard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bathory Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 you never heard of the paul is dead bullshit? according to the book I own, paul died in a car accident in 66, they replaced him with a guy named billy shears, and then left a bunch of little clues in their music. the guy holding his hand over paul's head on sgt pepper, the headless baby next to paul on the original cover of yesterday and today, "I...BURIED...PAUL," etc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundog Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 This little Canadian Girl - sheltered from all conspiracy. Fascinated none the less at the details listed. I would really love to read the papers the College student wrote regarding the death details outlined in the Sgt Pepper album.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhyta Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 It is just old rehashed rumors, nothing to it. :sigh: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Principled Man Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Of all the famous rumors about who is dead/not dead, the one I could actually believe is Jim Morrison. He was smart enough to pull it off....!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edm2112 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I think the biggest theory like that of my generation was the whole Tupac Shakur thing...about 2 or 3 years ago there was a video going around of what appeared to be Tupac hiding out in Sweden or something that really had me convinced...the age progression was right, the tattoos, the voice...I tried to find it recently and it's nowhere to be found. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your_Lion Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I love this conspiracy theory, and looking for all the so-called clues in the album covers and lyrics.McCartney himself even got in on the act, to poke fun at it.One of the clues on the Abbey Road cover is the number plate reading 28if, because that's how old he would have been "if he didn't die". On the cover of Paul is Live, also showing the Abbey Road crossing, the number plate this time reads 51is, because that was how old he was at the time 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geezer Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Don't wanna seem too cynical, but the alleged look-like was then present in the best Beatles' albums and he greatly entertained us in the last 50 yrs.I can easily live with that and it would have been better if it happened to many supposed artists! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J2112YYZ Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I'm not even that big of a Beatles fan and even I knew about the whole "Paul is dead" thing. I can't remember a time where I didn't know about this and I was born several years after they broke up. I just figured it was one of those legends in the music world that was common knowledge.

sundog Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Meh - I guess if I did hear about it, it wasn't important enough to register in my memory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorraine Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Sunny, you didn't know that? Didn't you ever listen to Beatles' songs backwards??? Didn't you notice that on the Abbey Road album jacket, Paul has no shoes on??? tsk tsk tsk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluefox4000 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Never bought it....but it's still fascinating as hell how in depth it is. if you've read books on it you'd see, lol Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue J Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I knew about the 'Paul is dead' thing, years back, yeah. Based on how his voice sounds now, I wouldn't be surprised if he had died and been secretly replaced any number of times since 1966. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just keep carting out the old dead one though. No need to replace him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
