Keith Moon...Died

[abbey]

Did the Beatles have a death curse?

untimely deaths to date include:

Paul McCartney's mother - Mary;
John Lennon's mother - Julia;
former bandmate Stu Sutcliffe;
manager Brian Epstein;
roadie Mal Evans killed in shoot-out with LA cops;
Ringo's wife - Maureen;
Paul's wife - Linda;
publicist Derek Taylor (altho dying at 65 may be counted as natural causes);
former Beatles proteges Pete Ham and Rod Evans from Beatles produced group Badfinger both hanged themselves;
and of course, John Lennon and George Harrison...

there may be others I've missed...

Also, the night Who drummer Keith Moon died, he had been to a party thrown by Paul McCartney.

Can someone please look into this farther because I don't have the time.
Thanks

This is definitely an intriguing "phenomena" but i think perhaps george should be omitted from the list because his death was from lung cancer due to heavy smoking.

ok i know circumstances are suspicious, such as the guy who stabbd him fairly shortly before, but to me george wasn't killed as part of this conspiracy and he's now where he always wanted to be

But know i've had a thought about this, we've worked out that popstars/fil stars/ generally people in the public eye are targeted as "easy to replace" or can be done away with by TPTB almost seemlessly.

So, what's the easiest way to cover up a death (by TPTB), drug them/make it seem like a suicide.

So, here we go, some memorable pop star deaths, as you say SMA, keith moon - drugs, john bonham of led zeppelin drug overdose, steve clark - def leppard- overdose, jerry garcia - overdose, Lowell george - overdose, Jimi Hendrix - overdose, janis joplin - overdose, sid vicious- ovedose, elvis - overdose, jim morrison - overdose.

Then say "suicide", jeff buckley, kurt cobain, michael hutchence, brian jones.

And finally what i call "unusual deaths", sonny bono, mama cass, marvin gaye, gene vincent and............ Vivian Stanshall.

Anyway, a lot of these "natural/unfortunate deaths" are also seen as being associated with murder, or (as with elvis and jim morrison) perhaps a fake death?

Hows that for starters? SMA, what do you reckon?

;D

[Dr.No]

to be fair, there are probably a lot of natural deaths we're just overlooking. Not to mention, if you thought back on every death you've been in someway connected to, a lot would be "untimely".

What about Eric Clapton? Jimi Hendrix? oops Plastic Paul mentioned him , but I mean as a Beatles related death...
(good post btw PlasticPaul)

Keith Moon was associated with Viv Stanshall as well...

and of course don't forget Paul himself, and Brian died twice! (first Brian, then Frian)

[abbey]

It seems that a lot of people surrounding the Beatles or the recording industry have met sudden death.....don't forget Badfinger who had 2 group members commit suicide....assissted? They were around Apple and who knows what they may have heard.

Also, the "suits" would have eliminated the actual killers so they wouldn't talk after imbibing in a pint or two too many. They don't warrant much sympathy, however.

Didn't a couple of guys in Wings die, it's Faul, I know, but there was the guitarist Jimmy McCullough and some other guy I think.

[plastic paul]

Thanks for the praise, but i'm only trying to tell people what i know.

Anyway i'm sorry to say that i've had to much to drink to bother writing the full stories and quoting but i read in the same edition of the same newspaper that Krissy Wood, (once married to rolling stone ronnie wood) has died of a valium overdose and supposedly she seduced George and John, and the supposed lucy of lucy in the sky with diamonds has died of breast cancer, aged 57 and and 47 respectively.

Sorry to say but it deserved it's own post rather than a modify, lucy went to the same school as Julian but was a little older, her parents owned an antiques store that the beatles frequented, and so when julian got upset at school, lucy would go and join him and draw pictures with him, which is the supposed true story of Sgt Peppers LSD.
