Even if JPM was just replaced, and the car accident is fiction, it's possible that the car accident story could've been "leaked" to the press, then killed the next day.
Why not?
They went to all the trouble of planting all those audio & LP cover "death" clues. Having that "news flash" during a Monkees show was probably deliberate. What better time to do that...
That "news flash" would start the death clue game that would finally get some steam 2 yrs later.

when i was in high school one of my teachers swore he was watching the monkees tv show when there was an interruption during the broadcast that one of the beatles had been in an accident, and that details would follow. He said no details ever followed. it always stuck in my mind for some reason...does anyone know anything about this? I guess it wouldn't have worked if they had interrupted the Lawrence Welk Show instead of The Monkees. |

Hey, maccafan87, the tv news blurb claiming that "one of the Beatles involved in a fatal car accident, story at 11" really happened. I heard it personally 45 years ago.
Do you find arguing enjoyable and consider it a participation sport ? Or are you just a knee jerk instigator who's here to stir the pot ?
Just curious. I hope you can mature if you're the former, or dig yourself if you're the latter.
Hopefully, whichever you are you, can learn how to learn, which often requires closing of the mouth and opening the ears.
Just sayin.

But, just as a foundational thought here Macca -
Now stay with me -
you can do it -
focus -
focus....
This is a PWR forum - you know what it stands for, yes?
We look at different things but that's the predominant theme.
(we'll soon find out if the glazed eye thing happened)

I just never bought this PID thing at all, and I don't know why anyone would.
BTW, what "glazed eye thing" The London eye being renamed McCartney eye?

PWR is obvious.

PID is a game, PWR is obvious. well, without taking sides I'd like to note that it CAN be argued that the "Paul the Occultist" theory doesn't NEED him being actually replaced or dead, just metaphorically, and as nowadays there seem to be just as much "occult clues" as PID/PWR clues, If not more... let's just say you don't necessarily have to believe Paul was replaced to think some things are fishy. |

That's true, but it's still pretty obvious we're dealing with more than one person. |

Well if you aren't going to buy the PID then you can't have the PID! Or the fries! ;D (I'm not trying to insult you maccafan87, I just like to play with words). Here's a glazed eye for your entertainment while you're thinking it over. -j |

You almost had us there Macca.
I get it - you're actually on board with the whole PID or PWR concept.
but appear to be at the opposite pole.
-and saying things like 'I order you to..."
- so then anyone visiting will think you're sorta out there and
then perhaps give credence to the PID/PWR thing.
clever

All this time I thought JFK was saying he was a pastry.
What a goof I am some times.
Oh, and I think that's a big mac - no worries about actual meat there.

Anyway
I don't know if it happened or not
but again, it has a nice
"good-old-PID" flavor (i.e. pre-RA)
And it certainly seems to go along the line of the "Welcome the Rolling Stones" sweater on the doll in Pepper.
Although...well, you can read more into it:
As the Monkees were a FAKE band
(at the beginning, anyway)
Maybe there was a message there too...
I don't know how widespread this knowledge was, at the time
Certainly it was not hidden, because there was no "Milli Vanilli"-style scandal...or was there?

It was known that they were fake at the time.
Or were they?

Ya, The Monkees were a fake band for the 1st 2 albums, but after they fired Don Kirshner, they were as real a band as anybody else. The next 4 albums were all excellent releases with them playing most of their own instruments & writing most of the songs. Big Monkees fan here... the albums Headquarters (3rd) thru Head (6th) all have some great classic rock on them.... good stuff.
Lots of times at work I'll program in all the Beatles & all the Monkees & let it play all day. That's a good mix.

Fake band? Everything is fake? Nothing is real, at least. lol Bobby Graham was the drummer on the Dave Clark Records, but everyone used session players then and still do now. Bands are just a product of marketing, you could easily argue. That's why this topic is interesting. The Monkees, btw, were the fake Beatles, a double. In fact i was young enough not to be able to tell the difference. I don't think that was by accident. that IS marketing. So, if you follow the holographic universe, this is another perfect part of the "game."

One of the best Monkees songs is Randy Scouse Git about a party The Beatles had for them. I wonder who "the birthday boy" was? |

If you heard the Aug 5th Coast-To-Coast show with Bobby Hart, they played a little snippet promoting the upcoming Monkees TV show in 1966. The promo stated The Monkees would debut at 7:30pm on NBC on September 12th. Then they said on September 11th The Monkees would take a train trip to Clarksville and giveaway color TVs to some lucky fans. But September 12th would have been a Monday in 1966.
A similar, but different Monkees ad:
They're not going to allow you to hear CoastToCoastAm show on youtube (because of copy rights), so I guess you'd have to be a "Coast Insider" subscriber to hear it. In the interview has the Monkees ad is at 25:00.
