To unscrupulous promoters

No, I don't want to go on tour. Stop trying to cash in on my new-found fame. I've said several times this year that the touring industry are parasitic leeches. It's carbon-intensive, and I could book small gigs on my own.

All I'd need is a manager, not Live Nation. If I go on a duo tour with Don McGlashan, then he'd be able to book the venues. - I'd also ask people to start admitting that Sir Paul is dead. After all the crap you gave me about our marriage, you could respect my wishes... I know that Disney and the UK Government have other plans, but it's getting silly. Their theme park is dead, and we're hoping to kill Sony's films. Apple Corps voted for Imagine Multimedia based on his legal death. There's only so long you can go without people wondering why... You might have some stock answers for the website, but that's not enough. People will wonder why he isn't at music events or giving interviews. -

Note that we're not killing all Beatles films, just the ones that cheated us. We're not killing all Beatles Museum ideas, just the ones we didn't approve. We're not killing merchandising or branding. We're still assigning covers. That's what I did this year: licenced covers. Sony defrauded Apple Corps by going around the board. Disney backed them. Now that we know their real plans, we're planning to sue them. The BBC series is still in development; we're discussing the use of Beatles songs. They're behaving honestly, but they don't really need the songs to start shooting. I'm changing a few things, but Apple Corps is largely operating as it always has. - Why do Imagine Multimedia? Why not just keep letting Disney use the films? It's a simple business plan: Spotify doesn't pay much per stream; subscribers are an easier way to make money. Disney+ is making most of the Get Back money. IM would capture that income. It's also a question of decontextualisation. Disney and Spotify etc. remove context. They see the Beatles as generic content to plug into their algorithms. I've learned a lot regarding the stories behind the songs this year. That's why my covers are good. Imagine Multimedia would illuminate those stories. A bunch of Americans seeking quick cash will never care about their songs or politics. The Royals and the UK Government are Disney investors; they despise the Beatles. - I highly doubt the money that Sony and Disney pumped into London did much. It seems like the bulk of the money went to above-the-line people, not crew. All I've heard is that the A-listers caused a lot of drunken damage. There's a death toll of around a dozen. It's still like the 1960's: people see the Beatles as a way to promote cultural supremacy. Making a film about the Fab Four is like playing with matches. Everyone wants what they had. Believe me, it ain't all that great. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Y7cVWdWdxbtssZFRCk9riBI-6diEJNJW/view?usp=sharing
