My temper tantrums

I wasn't throwing stuff and destroying all my equipment until after The Big Smoke and the pressure that was applied to me to perform the Tina role. That's why I'm absolutely furious. Nobody had any business applying that pressure given that precisely zero of them had the legal right to film my screenplay. All they had to do was let me say no and accept that choice. Instead, they turned 2023 and 2024 into a kind of living hell. - So, Tina = insanity, destroyed equipment, and being accused of having an erotic fixation. Dakumentary = DIY filmmaking with friends that never called me a pervert. Undue pressure = an invalid contract. - I'm serious that my enemies have to give up now. Any further attempts to produce that screenplay will result in legal action.

Days We Left Behind is credited to Paul alone. My arrangement is clearly different. That's not illegal. He'd given me the right to use his catalogue in my new albums.

Did The Beatles interfere in the NZ election?

No. I ran my own campaign, and they didn't fund it. AMPP is about my real life. I was working on a Beatles script. Paul was giving me tips regarding my original songs as well.
