Hi everyone, Recently I was doing some research into the Sgt.Pepper album photo shoot and I noticed the number 3 on the drum under the T in SGT. which appears like a small squiggly symbol in red from a distance but close up looks like a 3. This can be seen on all photos with the drum including the actual album cover itself. I have had other people look at it without telling them what I thought it was and they all said it was the number 3. This resembles the drumskin seen in MMT with the message LOVE The 3 Beatles. I don't think this has ever been noticed before or mentioned by any other PID message board or fan. The first pic is at a distance and the second pic is a close up. Thoughts?

I'm sorry that in my haste to post and being new to these boards that I did not add this to the current Sgt.Pepper Clues Thread. I'm curious to know what the rest of you think about this clue or if it has been discussed before in the past. Thanks!

This symbol could almost be mistaken as an 8 since the start and finish points of the 3 almost seem to touch one another.

So...the drum skin reads:
"Sgt.Peppers 3 Lonely Hearts Club Band"...which is declaring that a Beatle has died and the other "3" surviving members are now "Lonely" without him.
Now..if Paul, nor any other Beatle died during this period as some like to believe...then why all this effort,time and money put into trying to inform their audience that someone died and that they missed him? The publicity stunt excuse does not make sense at all IMHO since it is hard for me to believe that The Beatles would intentionally fool some of their more observant fans with a "Paul Is Dead" publicity stunt just to make money or garner attention. The Beatles did not have to do any of that because their music and personalities are what sold...not gimmicks. Why would The Beatles waste time on this type of sales gimmick from 1967-1970? Why waste all that time on something that did not hold some truth to it?

I think this has been discussed at NIR before, but "I ONE I X" makes more sense to me as three alive (1 One 1) and one dead (X) rather than the date of Paul's death.
As a date it can be either 11/09 (September 11 or November 09) or 03/10 (October 3) some of which have timeline problems with either the Melody Maker Awards or people hearing about the accident during one of the Monkees 1966 TV shows. If it's not a date, these problems go away.

"What can we make I ONE I X HE ^ DIE into?"
"I know LONELY HEARTS! We'll call ourselves Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band"
It doesn't work in hindsight.

Why is the main premise of the album cover declaring they are "lonely"? What are they "lonely" about? The whole albums conception and message seems to be that someone has passed away or gone away...something has been lost that those who have remained behind miss. If Paul retired as some claim...then why are The rest of The Beatles treating it as if he has died...to never be seen or heard from again with death clues and messages?
Celebrities die all the time...why is Paul's death so special? Why this long secretive aspect to it and continuing to inject death clues after so long a time has passed? Billy Boy is still doing it with every new album release to this day.
What happened to Paul that makes his death so different and calls for so much secrecy surrounding it? Is it because Paul's death was not an accident...that he was murdered? Just some random thoughts...rant over.

Paul McCartney is the same man they call Billy. the Beatles liked to joke

What I do when something like this makes zero sense is I make up some "if so, then so's..." If Paul McCartney died and the others covered it up, then that makes the other three practicably evil. If they couldn't tell the public because they'd be suicidal, then why didn't they tell them when they were older or more blasé about music and dead stars? When Punk Rock emerged for example. If he died alone, then why didn't his next of kin inherit his wealth? Once you establish the man calling himself Sir Paul McCartney isn't the Paul McCartney who was one of the founder members of The Beatles then the conspiracy theory (which he and the rest of the Beatles have been dropping hints about for decades) begins to look like a red herring.

The thing that bugs me is how did they happen on Faul at the right moment? I could see if Paul had been sick for a while and died, but, that's not what we're expected to think happened. I mean, he dies unexpectedly and whamo there's Faul to fill in? To a certain degree it makes no sense, what are the odds?

It's impossible, supposedly Paul died on September 11, but on September 13 he appeared at the Melody Awards with Ringo, and he can not have died on November 9, because at that time Paul (or the lookalike) was in Kenya with Mal Evans

And look at the heels on Paul's? boots their street heels not Beatle boot heels like the rest. It's like their trying to hide his height.

Do you think there are several pauls? I owe you somewhat of an apology this is what I said on the survey "Where did Paul die", "If it can be proven that Paul really worked on the Revolver album then the time lines don't make any sense. When the St. Pepper sessions started on Nov.24, 1966 their sound engineer Geoff Emerick in his book "Here, There and Everywhere" said it had been five months since he had seen them. So we're expected to believe that from after April 6 - June 21 1966 when the Revolver album was recorded Faul and Mal go to Kenya which is taken as Paul's disappearance between Aug.31, 1966 and Nov.24,1966 when the Sgt.P sessions started where Faul has plastic surgery and shows up when the St. Pepper sessions began on Nov.24,1966 not showing any signs of any scars and looking enough like Paul to pass for him. Emerick does say they all showed up wearing mustaches "garbed" colorful clothes, I will say that could be enough to throw someone off, but in a video put out by Imaphony Emerick says which he doesn't mention in his book that when they showed up for the St. P. sessions on Nov.24,1966 that they were all very sad and didn't seem like the same group and that it was very weird. How convenient that Faul was around." What I said was: " So we're expected to believe that from after April 6 - June 21 1966 when the Revolver album was recorded Faul and Mal go to Kenya which is taken as Paul's disappearance between Aug.31, 1966 and Nov.24,1966 when the Sgt.P sessions started where Faul has plastic surgery and shows up when the St. Pepper sessions began on Nov.24,1966 not showing any signs of any scars and looking enough like Paul to pass for him. "we're expected to believe that from after April 6 - June 21 1966 when the Revolver album was recorded Faul and Mal go to Kenya which is taken as Paul's disappearance between Aug.31,1966 and Nov.24,1966." This is under the premis that Paul was still alive and recording in the studio on Revolver.
