Helter Skelter strikes again

Last week gave us the second incident of Sir Paul McCartney performing Helter Skelter at a benefit just days before a devastating terrorist attack in the region in which he performed it. The Beatles song Helter Skelter may have originally been written about an amusement park ride, the title however has become traumatically burned into the collective psych following its appropriation by the Manson Family as signifying a racially driven civil war. The words "Healter Skelter" were scrawled in blood on site following the LaBianca murders on August 10, 1969.

More recently, the title has subliminally become associated with mass murder when McCartney performed it first at the "Live 8" benefit in London on July 4, 2005. Three days later, the 7/7 bombings occurred in London, an event accepted by many investigators to have been a staged, false flag attack. Then, last Friday - 12/12/12 - McCartney opened his set with the song at the Hurricane Sandy benefit held in Madison Square Garden in New York City. Events some 36 hours later in Sandy Hook Connecticut once again would retrospectively throw a macabre pall upon that performance, as would the final song of his set, "Live and Let Die": setlist. Like 7/7, the Sandy Hook massacre is evidently a staged event.

In the inaugural post of this site - Live 8, revisted - we indulged in a bit of black humor, parodying the Live 8 concert, wherein all of its performers - except Paul McCartney - were massacred by the fictional Lolita pop group "Amber Alert". Needless to say, today we would gladly trade a scene such as that to replace what is said to have occured on December 14.
