We all know that rock & roll is the devil's music, so it should be no surprise that the Great Deceiver likes to occasionally spice up his raucous riffs with tall tales. With dead rockers often appearing alive, and live rockers often whispered to have died long ago, rock & roll is indeed ripe with mystery. From the bats to the cows to the elephants to the ham sandwiches, here is the devil's best work:

1 Paul McCartney Is Dead

2 Ozzy Bites Head Off Bat

3 Jacko Meets the Elephant Man

4 Rod Stewart's Stomach Pumped

When McCartney actually does die, I won't believe it.

Repeat after me...

Paul is the next to go.

It is really simple:

Take a guy who is a fair-to-indifferent drummer. A guy with a huge schnozz, and that is the best thing in the guy's whole looks "package".

Put said guy into a band just before it explodes onto the international scene, and becomes one of the best-known bands of the decade. (and in this band are an intellectual, a mystic, and priggish control freak known as "the cute one".).

After said band implodes, because of squabbling among the better-known members of the band, said homely guy continues to tour. Said homely, marginally-talented guy also ends up attracting musicians from all walks who want some of the magic to rub off on them.

After a couple "novelty hits", said guy goes on to star in a couple really bad movies. On the set of one, he meets, and impresses an incredibly-cute girl who goes on to star in one of the Bond movies. Not only that, but they are still together after 25 years.

Face it.. God Loves Ringo, and Sir Paul is all hissy because he knows he is the next Beatle to cakk it.

But...but...

The drummer can't be the last one to survive!!! It goes against the laws of Rock'n'Roll nature!!!!!! (Unless you're the Ramones)
