Having started their days as a Wednesday 13 tribute act, Alan and his band JP13 found it hard to get gigs besides the ones great mate Tadhg Kelleher would get them, but enjoyed making videos... They stayed up until the early hours on countless nights with a digital camera in the hopes of making an amusing video to a Wednesday 13 song to show to the people of the internet world.
They got anxious to write their own material though as they felt that they were steering away from the "roll" in ''rock and roll'' and after about two years wrote the music to the now-classic "End of Time", they all agreed they were on to something. Not content with one song they quickly started to write more music, in a hurried attempt to come up with songs they wrote the charmingly annoying riff to "Gradual Insanity Twist" lyrics followed and later that night "Gradual Insanity Twist" was written.
Before the writing of "End of Time" was finished the short lived "Athlone Music Promotions" group offered JP13 a days recording with Mike O'Dowd at Lakelands Studios, the band jumped at the chance as they were not very good at remembering things and needed the songs to be recorded, seeing as they weren't confident with "End of Time" they decided to spend the day recording "Gradual Insanity Twist."
Due to the overabundance of time and the demented nature of the band and their new found friend Mike the song was a success and an intro for the song was recorded on "The Funmaker"; a keyboard that was in the studio.
The first day of recording went so well that the band returned for two full weekends in the next year, The Funmaker is almost always present and Mike makes appearances singing or playing guitar or keyboard, friend of the band, and Athlone Music Scene King, David Murphy also makes vocal appearances along with Joe Kerrigan another legendary Athlone man.
The first album "spooky ghost sound #5" was released in August 2010. The band settled on the name due to the sound effects use in the song "Number 11" and also because of their famous love of "ghosting" as you can see on the cover, the album had many working titles, such as:
Mullahs in a Shed,
Ploughing in the Sunset,
JP13 presents: The Legend of Mike and The Funmakers,
and
Alan, The Movie: The Original Soundtrack.

In Greenland, we had a radar station installed in the 1950s. In September of 1959, we almost got into a nuclear war with the Soviets because the radar at Greenland Air Force Base, mistook a Full Moon for upwards of 500-1,000 nuclear tipped missiles that had been launched at us.
If it wasn't for the fact that Lieutenant General Ralph Eberhart from Canada, was on duty at NORAD that night, and not someone ''Gun-Ho'' like ''General Bombs Away Curtis La May'', we would all be dead....
The story goes, After being told what radar was picking up, he thought a moment and said, ''Isn't Nikita Khrushchev at the UN in New York City speaking this week?'' The reply was ''Yes Sir, he's there right now.''
So this General Eberhart said, ''Why would they wait to bomb us while their leader is here in the US?'' So he said, ''Stand down, go outside and look at the sky, then call back & tell me what you can see''.
The personnel in Greenland called back & said ''Sir, you were right, the sky is clear, and we have a Full Moon to our North.''
So the radar was set off by a Full Moon & not 500 to 1,000 nuclear tipped missiles.. You can't get much closer to war than that...
As for which country had more nuclear weapons. The CIA knew we had around 70% more missiles than the Soviets had. And the folks that didn't know this were the President Eisenhower, and his Administration, followed by Kennedy and his Administration. So evidentially the CIA doesn't care who they lie to...

Hey ... where's major Kong?!
The Apollo missions should have brought a state of the art 35 mm or 70 mm motion picture production camera.
And ... the starscape would have appeared even better than those on top of Mount Everest at Night; except that such starscapes would have been visible in daylight on the moon because there is no atmosphere scattering of sunlight. The moon has no atmosphere. Why were no photographs taken of starscapes directly overhead using a shaded lens to block sunlight reflected off the regolith, and in the shade of the LEM, on a tracking tripod, with a long shutter exposure? Answer: That would be even harder to fake with enough precision to fool even an amateur astronomer; let alone thousands of them.
And yes, the Earth and moon are spherical, space is a hard vacuum, and rockets are able to work in space by following Newton's Laws of conservation of momentum ... unlike a certain magic bullet I can still recall. We need to all live longer to grow wise to all the b.s. propaganda myths we are spoon fed from birth.

The man in charge of risk assessment for the entire Apollo program was Joseph Shea, a Ph.D level Engineer from New York. He was hired by NASA around 1963.
In 1967, his team of mathematicians, engineers, rocket scientists, medical doctors and meteorologists, nearly 30 professionals, made a determination of the chances for a successful Apollo moon mission.
Keep in mind, the NASA administrators required a 99.75% chance of success, before they would green light a launch.
Along those lines, NASA cancelled the Space Shuttle program when they recalculated the risk assessment. Prior to 1986, NASA calculated the risk of catastrophic mission failure was 1 in 100,000. After 2 Shuttles mission failures, they determined the risk was 1 in 100 or 1%. And that was too high.
Joseph Shea concluded in 1967, the chance of failure ( death of the entire Apollo crew) would be 95% per each launch. At least 10 crews, he concluded, would die before 1 landed on the moon.
That was bad news for NASA.
They had already spent more than $25 billion of taxpayers money into what was clearly a lost cause.
By 1968, the clock was ticking.
In April 1968, Stanley Kubrick released 2001 A Space Odyssey. As luck would have it, the high IQ genius who had helped Kubrick over the past 4 years, to make that movie, was Arthur C Clarke.
Clarke was a key advisor to NASA and friends with the very top NASA people in the Apollo program. He is seen in photos with top NASA administrators in the mid 1960's in London.
According to the film producer, Bart Sibrel, ( hated by NASA and trolls on all message boards ) he was leaked information that a staged moon landing was done in New Mexico at an Air Force base, under the eye of LBJ and other top military and gov officials.
It appears the editing of the film took a long time and might not have been completed until mid 1969.
What is important to note about Stanley Kubrick is that he had invented the Front Screen Projection film technique of backdrops, and it is obvious NASA folks used that film technique, to make black backgrounds in the scenes. Today, it looks very fake but NASA had no other option at the time and never guessed the film would be viewed millions of times by independent researchers.
The Bart Sibrel film - " A funny thing happened on the way to the Moon "offers proof after proof of the hoax. It can still be seen on YT.
One question folks will often ask, after seeing the Bart Sibrel film is, " If NASA faked the moon landing, wouldn't Russia would tell the world ".
That is a good question. Consider what Russia would get from that worldwide statement. Nothing.
Russia is smart. After all, they were 4-5 years ahead of NASA when they ended the moon mission program, after realizing the radiation barriers were IMPOSSIBLE to penetrate.
Russia was way too smart than to yell, " America is lying."
They blackmailed Nixon.
Some of the blackmail payoffs are known because they were too big and too obvious to hide from anyone. However, there is a good chance a lot of the blackmail package remains secret, and perhaps 90% of it remains unknown. But that is why Russia kept quiet in my view.

@Max Smith A former military police man in his death bed , tells his son about the making of the 'moon landing film at Cannon.
This son who is now on in his death bed , terminal sick , tell this on camera.
At Cannon , 2 hangers became one big studio.During that time renovations were going on.
The trucks with props like sand did not stand out.
This MP was given a list with 15 names.
These people only , han entry to the studio.
Among them...:
Emeneger , Armstrong , Van Allen , Von Braun... .
Do you think this is legit?A hoax?
By the way..English is not my first language.. .
I am Belgian.

Stanley Kubrick was ahead of his time. Eyes Wide Shut is literally what is happening in the world right now with the Epstein/McAffee cases

maybe he was ahead of his time, maybe he knew the people who were planning society

Charlotte Iserbyt, whistle blower, author of “The Dumbing Down of America...,” senior policy advisor of Reagan’s BOE, stated that, “If you want to know what goes on in those “meetings” watch “Eyes Wide Shut.”
Patrick Lawrence
@James Town And I can't remember which Kubrick movie it was, but they removed lots of parts that were to revealing either without his approval or after his death.
