His recent information about John Lennon and George Harrison doubles is quite valuable.

If they had doubles, it was most likely for the reasons mentioned. Security, because they couldn't be in two places at the same time, and to allow them to enter & leave the premises without being mauled. I highly doubt that their doubles were meant to be sinister in nature.

they couldn't be in two places at the same time. nice cover art from the Firesign Theatre's 1969 LP, How Can You Be In Two Places At Once When You're Not Anywhere At All, and more curious is the track 2 title of one song from they previous 1968 album Waiting For The Electrician Or Someone Like Him, maybe an title Strawberry Fields Forever parody, but why W.C. (William Campbell?), don't forget the William Shepherd character comes from the doubtful and unexistent 60IF document. 1. Temporarily Humboldt County (9:13) 2. W.C. Fields Forever (7:39)3. Trente-Huit Cunegonde (7:20) 4. Waiting for the Electrician or Someone Like Him (21:47) 5. Chakras and Mantras (4:10)

60IF is bunk, but that doesn't mean that certain aspects aren't true. A few months before some of the more dubious things over there were exposed, someone registered and posted claiming that they had written 60IF as a joke years earlier, and Sun King had swiped it, adding elements such as IBS and Yoko Ono being a spy while removing others. While the intent of the document was most-likely initially humorous, it doesn't change the fact that there were a lot of well-researched things in there that weren't possibly too far off from the truth.
For example, the name William Shepherd has cropped up enough times, most strikingly as the songwriter for Billy Pepper and the Pepperpots, that there's enough evidence to support an involvement of someone by that name, be it the man we know as Sir Paul McCartney today or one of the vocal imitators who helped bridge the gap until Sir Paul was ready to be more than just a pretty face.

Wings is talking about Isaac Faire, and his post is unfortunately down the 'ol memory hole.
I think some of the material was common knowledge in certain circles, and it was changed into a narrative style, from the point of view of one person, in this case George, not a difficult thing.

Most striking for me was the fact he was their biographer in the Beatle Books!

Is easy How about a walk down memory lane? Please dont say "WE" just say "I", everyone here on the forum knows what LJ is referring to. 1- Eggy please let me know. 2- "Paultruth" and "Sun King" were teams of people. "PaulTruth team" was formed by: - a medical examiner - a journalist - a computer technician (who is writing now) - an EMI insider/collector - two italian people as logistic support "Sun King team" was formed by: - a journalist - a computer technician (who is writing now) - an EMI insider/collector TKIN! is just only me (a computer technician) The others think that their job has finished with 60IF. So we (Sun King team) and you all were (and still we are in this forum!) a great team of investigators. I think "our" aim (mine and yours) is still to well investigate about James Paul McCartney death (or, at least, why he was replaced). I consider my last contribution here quite interesting. "Sun King team" left many documents, photos and references to publish yet. I think they are interesting to see. If someone else would tell me :"You know.....(e. g.) Eggy said me that....." simply I don't believe in him. I believe what I am reading from (e. g.) Eggy in this forum. Nothing else.

Thank you, JoJo. The truly sad thing is that Eggy & SK were such good friends. When things went wonky & certain members left & formed this forum, Eggy just threw up his hands & split from 60IF. Not that I can blame him for that

Paul is Alive!
SunKing banned me! Nice move! I will take that as your admission of guilt

I think some of the material was common knowledge in certain circles, and it was changed into a narrative style, from the point of view of one person, in this case George, not a difficult thing. The main point for me is that the 60if "document" or Magic Scroll is completely false. There's no truth in it. Even if people believe that something may've happened to Paul in the 1960's, why bother for one minute when it's been shown that it's source was nothing more than a hoax. Sunnybob aka BP doesn't deserve one second of anybody's time. Also, people here have come up with their own original ideals and theories, but they're presented as personal opinions. Groundwork for further investigations. As opposed to "definitive proofs". BP has his birthdate on his profile box as 1942, June 18th. Same as Paul. Is that for real or just a joke. I think he's very mentally ill, or something. If he's a cranky sort of person, that's his business. But it hasn't helped his cause at all. Now all the Beatles had doubles? It just get's more confusing and turns people off. Don't even get me started on Don (Frian) Knotts aka Larry King. ;D

Just as an aside, this is one of my parodies about Sunking aka BP and his hoaxing - posting, IMHO. This is not directed at anybody in particular (Besides BP). It's just that generally speaking, he's been leadeing people down the garden path. So I wrote this parody awhile back based on a song by a Canadian rock band from the 1970's, early 1980's. A Parody Based On: Trooper's: Santa Maria.
www.trooper.ca/default.php?cat=lyrics&subcat=63 People, let me tell you 'bout a story that's been told Everybody gather 'round 'cause this story is getting old There were plans that were made There were goods to be sold And a man that was said to be dead, don'tcha' know
There were tall lies made up With no room left to grow. When they ran out of room They took their show on the road Where they were headed, nobody knows
And this is how the story goes....
Paul, woke up. Fell out of bed Wrote a song down, that was in his head Made some scrambled eggs, thought up, Yesterday And shortly he was on his way Caught a streetcar to a better place He hopped in his car, and went on his way Hit his foot on the gas and just drove away Nobody ever saw him again
He went for a drive and he never came back A man named Billy had to take up the slack John, George and Ringo were appauled so they say They took it so hard and got carried away
They had no real choice, they weren't happy at all Though he seemed the same man, he stood 6 feet six tall They knew he was fake, they called his name Faul But not to his face, and though it sounds strange They would if they could, but he had none they say So they gave him a facelift, again and again
So eveyone played a musical game.....
The great conspiracy of any age They wrote it all down in a secret place Or maybe it just appeared there one day Said a man with the only key to this space
He called himself Sunny, a genius they say But I don't believe a word that they say I'm sure it could be they're going astray I think they all have lost their way
Chorus:
Oh, they're just... Criusing on a sorry board Loaded with crazy people Watch out for Sunny the cheater He's calling for a grave new world
They're cruising on a sorry board On-line, they're crazy people Calling out to Sunny the cheater Calling for a grave new world
Will somebody please tell me How they ever fell into his snare It was a trap that was set. The clues were a net They're going nowhere, but who really cares They're having a ball trying to figure out Faul
Now, they're lost in a daze, it's a game they can play As they're passing their time, working out rhymes Searching for clues, seeking out signs Losing their way and losing their minds
Chorus:
Oh, they're just... Cruising on a sorry board Loaded with crazy people Watch out for Sunny the cheater He's calling for a grave new world
They're cruising on a sorry board On-line, they're crazy people Calling out to Sunny the cheater Calling for a grave new world
Then Sunny said "Look, I see Faul out there" Nobody looked, nobody dared Then Sunny said "I see Faul up ahead" "The real Paul is lost! I tell you he's dead"
But there was no Faul, so Sunny just stalled Eveyone's lost, confused one and all They cried "we're getting nowhere and nobody cares" Sunny, Is there something that you have to share Sunny cried out, "don't ever despair" Started to pout, as he stood and he glared
Till one day, he cried "I've got some info' to share" It seemed that he'd suffered a really bad scare Nobody moved, nobody cared Sunny cried out "It just isn't fair" Though he'd cried "wolf" one too many times And so was his fate, what happened that night
While working a hoax, he lost all he'd owned He lost his whole home, and all of his clothes Where it all went, nobody knows Sunny was high, but feeling so low
So now he knows, as he's standing alone There can be no doubt he's catching a cold And I guess that it shows how stories that lie Become real just to those who tell them alive And it just gose to show when you cheat and you lie Traps that you set will eat you alive
When you lie, well it shows Plant schemes and they'll grow Till they strip your heart bare and you're feeling so cold Now naked Sunny has no clothes
Chorus:
He's just....
Criusing on a sorry board Loaded with crazy people They call out for Sunny the cheater He's calling for a grave new world
They're cruising on a sorry board On-line, they're crazy people Calling out to Sunny the cheater Calling for a grave new world
Oh, cruising on a message board Loaded with crazy people They call out for Sunny the cheater Oooh, but naked Sunny has no clothes No, naked Sunny has no clothes The ol' boy is still crying wolf But naked Sunny has no clothes See the Emperor catching a cold Naked Sunny has no clothes......

Ok I totally understand and agree with a lot of what you are saying, but...
If I hadn't been so self obsessed and thought about it satirically like I usually do, I'd have used JPM's birthday and not my own! So that really isn't an issue.
And although some of his latest ideas are way out there and most likely wrong, to say "BP doesn't deserve one second of anybody's time." is a little OTT.
Don't forget that "Team SunKing" brought up a lot of valid information, did they not?
Again, I agree, some of the more recent stuff is sounding a little desperate and unbelievable, but everyone has their opinions and if no-one believes them, they won't get far.

[/quote] You admit that his ideas are way out there and most likely wrong, yet you still take him seriously?! Why? Doesn't the fact that he's out there, and most likely wrong tell you anything? How do you know Sunking aka BP is serious about that? They're "out there" and most likely "wrong". Yet you seriously sure he won't lie about their identity... wow! Sorry, I realise that you went to the trouble to write a serious, and well thought out response. I just don't believe anything he says!

There was a time when I seriously respected SunKing and waited for each new post, each new insight. I somehow came to see him as a benevolent, experienced, well travelled, artisan of the world; a well seasoned veteran of all media and all forms of fine art; a creative sage sitting high-atop some picturesque hill in sun-dappled Tuscany, nightly web-ificating on the arcane histories of 60's rock icons like the "Very Paramount Pope of Pop Culture."
Alas, I was wrong. And, though he can be forgiven, it must be said that it isn't too late for him to come down off that sun-dappled tor into the valley of truth and amending.
But, will he? Will he yet don his hoary robe and take up his gnarled crook, and alight down the rugged path from his towering altitude to meet us on a level playing field?
Where he can lay it on the line? Talk straight forwardly? Stop the teasers and the cliff hangers? Confess to the whoppers?
Me thinks, nay, it shall not be.
At this point, I don't think he could gmake it down in a air-lift.
I guess that leaves Jack and Jill's method. Messy, but it works.

What has he revealed recently that is "unbelievable"? His information about the John and George doubles, Dino Danelli, Knotts, the Bonzo Dog Band, Neil Aspinall and Brian Epstein has all been supremely valuable. Would this forum even be here if it weren't for TKIN? It's possible he is an insider, or speaking for a collection of insiders and is taking a great risk. What is the point of this thread anyway? To be negative and attack someone who, despite some flaws and roundabout methods, is doing a great service to us?

To be negative and attack someone who, despite some flaws and roundabout methods, is doing a great service to us? Your well answered post has made me think twice, and now I feel a quite bad about the cattiness in my last post. SK doesn't deserve that in return. He's never been catty to me. And, yes, in show business, a good many unpublicized things go on in the way of stand-ins, exagerrated PR, and photo retouching. And a lot more. I admit that those 4 guys may have needed to employ doubles for security reasons at times. The aircrafts crashing into the English channel and such is dramatic, but, after all, we lost JFK Jr. in such a manner. And numerous rock stars like Stevie Ray Vaughan and Ricki Nelson in more recent history. Lisa "Left-Eye Lopez" got thrown out of an SUV a killed on the Central American back range.(Or was it Mexico?) Anyway, the theories in the main, aren't any more improbable than what has actually happenned in real life to a lot of our music stars. What about Aliyah's private plane crashing from overweight just as they were trying to take-off? And it turns out that some romances and love lives were altogether surprises to us in America. What about Rock Hudson, Jim Nabors, James Dean and Nick Adams? How about Rosey O'Donnell and Ellen Degeneres? I could name more, but a lot of things are hidden and then shown later. We were surprised at first but who is now? I can even imagine JPM had some kids out of wedlock, or in secret wedlock. And it is shown that Sir Paul enjoys a good make-up masquerade in many of his films and videos. That they early on may have resorted to fun and games with greasepaint and latex is no biggie. Sir Lawrence Olivier spent half of his adult life in "get ups", false noses, wigs, latex, etc., for a myriad of roles. One can't even recognise him half the time till midway thru the movie! So, the William/Neil parade may have been a thing that was done momentarlly--even for just "because they could." And Sylvie's progression of photos raises many questions---without Sunking's commentary. So, really, we can excuse and digest and even recommend parts of it all. Until we get to Don Knotts as Brian Epstein, then I have to say, that is the silliest sounding piece of plunder I ever heard. But, hey, don't listen to me, it may prove to be the litmus test for this whole unsolvable quagmire. QUAGMIRE: "1: soft miry land that shakes or yields under the foot 2: a difficult, precarious, or entrapping position: PREDICAMENT" Sunking is the one safe on the hilltop. We're the ones stepping thru the morass below. Even so, I retract my unkind words from my previous post. But, Sunking, say old pal, how about you toss us down a metaphorical rope?

Beatle Paul is certainly fanciful, and it's clear that he has knot yet reached a complete contusion conclusion in this whole bailleywick. I want to believe that he is just going thru a difficult, unfocused period, which is affecting his output on the net. Maybe he'll snap back into reality soon. We can foster a hopeful outlook. It may not do us a busload of good, then again, he could just, why, turn it all around and suddenly have everything make sense. I do hope Don Knotts and Larry King disappear from the story in that event. The idea, the combination, the very picture of them involved together in a nonsensical routine makes me twitch at the keyboard. 09u5m7u0upioj840rjo teuieuterxjxjxj;;'./.,.,.,asaolq././';';';111;';' e0w0jqmrfmw See what I mean? You should hear my scales! OY! And, what of 60IF? That most flexible of documents? As "Q" might say to James Bond: "Bond, you've got an important mission to do for me. Find that 60IF document, the very original and bring it into headquarters! Get me that penciled papyrus! And find it on the double!" I don't think he'll find it THERE.......maybe floating down the Nile, or in one of the Pyramids, or in someone's CPU in Italy...... Why has that document undergone frequent and radical revision? And how does a deceased person add in some funny addendums? Posthumorously. OK, I can only hope that George would have sniggled at that.

When did he say Larry King impostered Brian? You and V are implying he wrote that? When was that?
There's already information on another thread in this forum on Don Knotts being a professional ventriloquist for the US Army and his vocal acting skills. Look into it.
Once you have Paul McCartney's replacement with an imposter, and Doris Day, Sylvie Vartan, etc. you have already thrown open the gates of bizarreness, and you are accepting that?
Hey but Don Knotts? That's going too far duuuhhhhh ...

There are also supposed to be several Faul's... at least as far as Sunking aka BP is concerned: Including impersonation roles, there are 12 people in all combined. So far! ;D maccafunhouse.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=pid&action=display&thread=1126394737&page=1

I think Bill is the master of disguise and he replaced all Beatles, he's made mulitiple images of himself on a screen, so why not all members of his band, as well as disguising himself as Don Knotts pretending to Be Brian, and dressing in a blonde wig and pretending to be Fylvie. He also dressed up as Neil pretending to be Paul. He's dressed up as Vivian Stamshell until his death in 1995, as well as standing in for Liberace, Lawrence Welk and Bea Arthur on the Golden Girls.
Bill is the master of disguise and how is this possible? Alien pod transformations.
Hey, with all of the hullabaloo over this stuff, I added my humor.

I'm so relieved you're just joking, lol! ;D You almost had me worried there for a second. It's obviously too outragous to take seriously. And while I may disagree with the particular views people have on PID, I can still respect those who are simply sharing their point of view in a sincere way. At least they're trying to be serious. Sunking's theories are just too far gone for me to even consider believing. Great post, btw, Lovely Rita. You really show how silly his (Sunking aka BP) ideas are.

As well you should have, Rita, as well you should have! And I say, if a man has the wherewithal to go ahead and just full-out perform Liberace, Lawrence Welk, AND Bea Arthur, I say, why, he must surely then just carry on, good man, carry on! Liberace possessed his own innefable, unflappable, uninhibited quality of stardom. True, he resorted to certain elements of "schtick". And, what's the problem with "schtick?" And, Lawrence was the quintessential band leader, steeped in the nostalgic traditions of the swing era. And, what's wrong with nostalgia? And Bea Arthur turned her Brooklynese style of broad comedy into---not one, but TWO American iconic TV charactors. And, what's not to enjoy about Dorothy or Maude? I think that---when one is ON, one should go for it. No half-way stuff. March in with both boots! Like, who here would evah have a problem with a "bit" that goes "over the top?" Hello? Anybody seen the new movie version of Mel Brooks' "The Producers"? Delicious. Gimme camp. Gimme bits. Gimme takes. Gimme gags. Gimme routines, rubber noses, pratfalls, one-liners, set-ups, punch lines, a rubber chicken and a pie in the face. No pumpkin. Do Ophelia's mad scene in a Phyllis Diller wig. I can't get enough Jiminy Glick. I even liked parts of Dana Carvey's last movie. I said parts. (It's not his fault..........he hasn't found the right script) Be a clown. Camp, camp, camp, and then camp some more. We should have the 12 days of Halloween so that we can rent 12 costumes and keep the madness going into November. I think I am going to go down to "Costume Village" next week, and pick up a big funny Richard Nixon mask to wear only when I post at NIR, so that I won't get so all-fired serious. How can I get overbearing with that on my head? Especially if I read these first: www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/r/richard_m_nixon.htmlMy favorite: Solutions are not the answer. Now, THAT'S camp. (Though I do think Nixon meant well and was not such a villain in hindsight.) But, back on topic. Shouldn't a man feel free to make full use of his gifts and talents? When Macca "feels the spirit" and brings an assortment of charators to life, he's merely celebrating the life of that person with mirth and joy. But, I wonder how Sir Paul would take Madea?.............or...does he already DO Madea? Gasp...... I wonder if he ever imitated John? or George? or........Brian Wilson? or Sean Connery? or .......Ricky Nelson.....Bowie............Roger Moore........Clint Eastwood.........Harvey Korman? ........Harry Nilsson?......Linda?.......Little Bo Peep? ......Perplexed?..... Come to think of it, Perplexed has been looking a little different lately. His head seems to be longer and the little ditching in his chin is missing.......and "poor" eye distance..........sadly. lol Hmmm. I want a Richard Nixon mask. I think I can "do" Dick Nixon. "I am not a crook. I will never resign. You won't have Nixon to kick around anymore. Politics wouldn't be such a bad thing except for all the danged people." Just practicing.
