Manic Street Preachers

ME

Minął kolejny rok...
Tym razem postanowiłam zrobić ankietę.
Ciekawa jestem co aktualnie sądzicie na temat tego co stało się z Riczim.

Edit (2010): Zmieniłam tytuł tematu, bo ktoś nie doczyta z kiedy jest ten post i pomyśli, że nie wiemy ile lat temu zaginął Richey...

dalej podtrzymuję to, co napisali w Guardianie. skoczył, to jest bezpieczniejsze myślenie.

Ja też drugą opcję uważam mimo wszystko za trochę bardziej prawdopodobną Sad

(ale tylko na jakieś 60%).

Wydaje mi się, że osoby w depresji prędzej myślą o samobójstwie niż wymyślają genialny plan ucieczki.
Z drugiej strony zawsze intrygował mnie fakt rzekomego wypłacania przez Richey'ego pieniędzy z konta przez 2 tygodnie poprzedzające jego zaginięcie.

ditta

ile on wtedy pieniędzy wypłacił?

Po 200ł przez dwa tygodnie.

Ja sądze że żyje, może to pójście na łatwizne chować się w jakichś kolorowych wyobrażeniach ( bo śmierć bardziej prawdopodobna) ale on był taki szczęśliwy przed zaginięciem, że moim zdaniem rozpoczęcie nowego życia z czystym kontem miałoby sens Smile

ditta

ale tak codziennie 200? to by coś musiało znaczyć hmm

(sorry, nie doczytałam jeszcze tego w Everything. rozkoszuję się 3 stronami dziennie)

Kiedyś znalazłam taki artykuł gdzie było zestawienie za i przeciw:

Richey Is Alive
1. Richey was a highly intelligent man, planning his disappearance would be simplistic.
2. Richey was fascinated by the art of disappearing, he showed great interest towards Salinger's disappearance and many others
3. A picture of a house was found on Richey's bed, which the band do not recognise, many speculate that this is where Richey is located.
4. A few people who were not familiar with the Manics or Richey, reported sightings of him, the most convincing of these was a taxi-driver who said he picked up a shaven headed man and drove him to Wales. The man, apparantly spoke with a forced Cockey-accent which broke into a soft-welsh dialect. When driven to wales he asked could he lie down in the back-seat and when taken to Blackwood (where he didnt want to go) he snapped "This Isnt The Place" (think for yourself)
5. Burger King wrappers where found in Richeys car, the battery was flat as well, indicating he had slept there.
6. Point 5 also leads to the question, why would someone wait over a week to kill themselves? Maybe Richey was to meet someone at sometime, or perhaps even collect some more money he had stored away for his planned disappearance
7. Richey had with-drawn £2800 from his bank-account a fortnight before he disappeared.
8. Surveliance cameras near the severn crossing, showed no signs of any suicides for the month of February
9. If Richey was dead, it would be highly likely that his body would have been found by now.
10. Fake passports are very easy to obtain, maybe this accounts for Point 6 that Richey was waiting to pick up one.
11. The timing of Richeys pet dog dying, and the money being withdrawn could prove to be key. Maybe this event triggered Richey to think "If I dont get away from this all, I'll probably kill myself" so Richey prepared to withdraw the money, and therefore planned his disappearance.
12. Richey left so many trivial clues around his hotel room, that it is blatantly obvious that he had planned his disappearance thoroughly.

Richey Is Dead
1. Richey left all his belongings behind, even his passport
2. Richey had tried to kill himself before, just before the release of the Holy Bible.
3. Richey's pet dog, Snoopy, had died two weeks previously, this obviously would have depressed Richey severely, since he had him for 17 years.
4. Richey dreaded going on the American tour, perhaps he felt that suicide was the only way out
5. Richey kept in contact with his parents constantly, to leave in such a manner without contacting them would be highly unlikely.
6. Richey was still very upset about the deaths of Kurt Cobain, and the suicide of his best friend from university.

Chyba każdy z Nas widział kogoś podobnego do Ricza i tez zastanawiał się czy to nie on Wink

A czy przypadkiem na kilka miesięcy przed zaginięciem nie pożyczył od swojego kolegi książki o tym jak zniknąć bez śladu?
