While I love a good consiracy theory, I doubt Tu'Pac is alive. Unless he is somehow in Federal Witness Protection. I say this only because since the police were involved, faking his death would be a felony and he would likely make alot more money alive then "Dead". Besides he would need to be a total shut-in, we find people hiding in the wilderness in Brazil who owe child support let alone finding someone famous. I do not doubt however that there is a Tu'Pac sound alike being used to release new songs to fuel the theory and make others some money. Face it rap would not be too hard to mimic its not like your trying to find a Freddie Mercury clone.

@M Rock: "John Lennon" is washed out to me in a blurry memory of a bunch of guys named John and ofcourse Lenin. I am by no means a closed-minded person, and I always make a very strong conscious effort to maintain that.

Sorry Matt ol' pal, never really got into music that much, and the name might have come up once or twice, but I sure wouldn't be able to recall any of his work or what year he was big in. You'll be surprised how much of "Western Media" you can miss when your life consisted of growing up in 3 different countries and cultures as opposed to someone who was born in Canada/US, grew up with English speaking parents and friends, and ofcourse knows who every musical figure was. Good luck with that suicide.

Also, I think Fallout's version of it all sounds like just about the only right version. Props to that homie for finally coming forward.

The only people 16 and older who I can excuse for not knowing who John Lennon is are people who grew up in communist states i.e. China (during Mao's regime), Cuba, USSR, N. Korea, etc. where the government would throw you in a gulag or worse for having anything to do with the outside world.

Anyone who lives in a "western" country, especially first world, should know. I don't like to put humans on pedestals (after all, he's just a human), but John and the Beatles were rock and roll PIONEERS. I can't think of any pioneers in the industry nowadays... sad, really.

*If* you lived through Stalin's regime, I'd excuse you. You didn't, so I don't

Don't you actually have to uh... wait a few years to see if anyone actually started anything? Of course you don't see any pioneers nowadays, theres no chance for them to have proven any pioneering!

Ok---- what I *should* had said was I can't think of any real pioneers since the days of the Beatles--- and they broke up in teh 70s. There's been tons of time since then.

Oh well--- back to my Enya music

Fallout. Bring it. I'll put a moonroof in the back of yo' head fasta 'dan you could say prayaz homie

lol talking like that can be fun sometimes

Okay Meg, you're forgiven and excused, but only if you read this paragraph lol. So you know, John Lennon was one of the front-men for the Beatles (their founder), who revolutionized rock music. He preached about peace, harmony, and helped lead the peace movement of the 1960's and 1970's unlike any other. His famous marriage to Yoko Ono is often blamed for breaking up the Beatles. At any rate, he is easily the most recognizable figure in 20th century music (I'd have a hard time thinking of someone moreso than him... MAYBE Elvis, not that Elvis deserves it ) Sadly, he was assassinated in 1980 by a crazy man named Mark David Chapman in New York City. For many people alive during that age, it's one of those days you simply can't forget, like when Kennedy was shot, or men landed on the moon. Mark David Chapman is in Attica Prison near Buffalo NY, up for parole this october, but he won't get out, and if he does, 50 wack-jobs will try to murder him... exactly what John Lennon would NOT have wanted

A little Lennon controversy for you: In his last interview before his death, he said he felt like someone was stalking him. Kinda creepy I think. They talked about that recently on some TV special about him. Also some people claim he mentions not wanting to die by gunshot wounds in the last song he ever recorded, a song called "Whatever gets you through the night," but I've listened to it a zillion times and I can't find a phrase to match that "theory."

Promise me guys, when I'm dead, no one will try to find clues to anything about anything (unless I'm murdered, then find clues as to whom killed me lol).

Free mixing software? That's Baiscly what it is. Besides that, it will only record high impedance (sorry for spelling) hardware, which is your CD player, your crappy microphone for your computer and, well, I can't think of anything else. There is no such thing as a free recording studio, the one that you are suggestiong is virtual, and therefore technically doesn't exist.

Oops, I didn't read it until BlueEarth bumped this thread.

I'll probably forget John Lennon by next week anyway.
