Yeah! Another video from Iamaphoney just went up! That’s the guy who has been posting these insane video collages for the past couple years that play into the whole “Paul McCartney is dead” mythology. The latest video features his typical unnerving craziness.
Iamaphoney posts these videos seemingly at random and everything is done anonymously. it’s been going on for years and from the latest video, looks as if it will continue going for quite some time. There’s three dates attached to three projects listed in the latest YouTube clip:
09/11/10 - TheRottenApple - TheMovie
10/03/11 - TheRightAlbum - TheAlbum
11/09/12 - TheRevelA†ion - TheTruth
The crazy thing is, there actually is a movie coming out on DVD in September. A couple weeks ago I came across a website for a “documentary” called, “Paul McCartney Really Is Dead: The Last Testament Of George Harrison.” It doesn’t appear to be directly related to Iamaphoney’s work but I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some connection. The flick looks really cool! I wrote to the website and asked if they could send me a screener to review and they graciously have dropped one in the mail. I’ve been checking my box at Sirius XM every day in anticipation. You can pre-order the DVD and watch the trailer on their website.
It’s amazing how this whole “Paul Is Dead” craziness which started as a College rumor in 1969 has continued to grow for over thirty years. The incident that really set the story in the motion happened on October 21st, 1969 on WABC-AM in New York City. DJ Roby Yonge started to receive weird phone calls from listeners begging him to get this story of Paul’s death out to the world. At the same time, Roby had been given a tipoff that he was about two weeks away from being fired by WABC management.
It was late at night. He was all alone and had full control of the most powerful radio station in America. He went on the air…
WABC was a gigantic 50,000 watt AM radio station. On a clear night its signal could sometimes be picked up by 38 different states. That’s one powerful microphone to be using in 1969. It continues…
The broadcast began at 12:39 AM and because it was so late at night, Roby Yonge was the only person at the station, giving him full control of WABC. it would take an hour and a half before management was finally able to get someone down to the studio to pull him off the air. Just enough time to create one of the greatest rock and roll myths of all-time.
