  • Proof That John Lennon Faked His Death
    return to updates Proof that John Lennon Faked his Death Mark Staycer or John Lennon? by Miles Mathis This has been a theory from the very beginning, as most people know, but all the proof I have seen up to now isn't completely convincing. What we normally see is a lot of speculation about the alleged shooting in December of 1980. Many discrepancies have indeed been found, but I will not repeat them (except for a couple in my endnotes). I find more recent photographic evidence to be far easier and quicker to compile—and more convincing at a glance, as it were—so that is what I will show you here. All this evidence is based on research I did myself. I am not repeating the work of anyone else and I take full responsibility for everything here. If it appeals to you, great. If not, feel free to dismiss it. That is completely up to you, and if you don't agree, fine. When I say “proof” in my title, I mean it is proof enough for me. I no longer have a reasonable doubt. This paper wouldn't have been possible if John had stayed well hidden, but as it turns out he still likes to play in public. Being a bit of an actor, and always being confident is his ability to manipulate the public, John decided to just do what he wanted to do, covering it just enough to fool most people. This he has done, but he hasn't fooled me. The biggest clues come from a little indie film from Toronto about Lennon called Let Him Be,* released in 2009, with clips still up on youtube as of 2014.

  • Matisyahu, Identity, and Authenticity by Sarah Imhoff on August
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by IUScholarWorks The Man in Black: Matisyahu, Identity, and Authenticity By Sarah Imhoff On August 6, 2006, thousands of fans at Chicago’s Lollapalooza music festival danced to reggae in the sweltering heat under the sun. The performer wore black pants and a gray long- sleeve collared shirt in spite of the heat. Instead of dreadlocks or a knit cap, he sported a full beard and a yarmulke. White fringes hung down in front of his pants, next to the badge identifying him as a performer. At one point, during a joyful frenzy of onstage dancing, his yarmulke came flying off. Without missing a beat, he took the nearby white towel—provided to performers for wiping away sweat—and held it atop his head with his left hand while his right hand held the microphone. He did not want to stop the show, but he also needed to ensure that his head would not be bare. The crowd had surprises, too: instead of a sea of red, green, and black Jamaican flags, as one might expect to see at a reggae show, this crowd had a smattering of white-and-blue Israeli flags. Some sang along with lyrics that called to “Hashem” and made allusions to the Torah. The crowd was a mixture of fans and others who might best be described as gawkers: Was he for real? Who was this observant Jew singing reggae and calling for “Moshiah now”? But one could also ask questions about most of the people watching: Why should a crowd of young, mostly secular pop-music listeners care about a Hasidic Jew? Was it just about the novelty? Critics and fans have already written much about the life, music, and performance of Matisyahu, the most prominent Hasidic reggae musician, and his visibility is still growing.

Something’s happened to me over the last five years. I listen to, and trust, pop music far less than I did in my twenties, and the pop that I still listen to is radically different than what I grew up with. My ears cock, like a cat’s, more toward jazz, avant-garde, and instrumental hip-hop now than to the rock, rap, R&B, and beat-driven fare that sustained me for twenty years. To be fair, jazz was always there, ever since I bought a $20 CD of Miles Davis’s Capitol/Blue Note years in a cold January morning in 1994. I bought it from Sound Warehouse, a chain that’s long gone, because the cover was cool and Davis—with his close-cropped hair and natty suit—looked cooler than I could ever hope for. It was a sophistication to aspire toward, and to try and impress girls with.
