I think they definitely took advantage of the fact that Denny Laine looks like Faul. I am still not sure how DL fits into all of this, though.

Maybe Sir Faul-nirvana can grace HAARP-Sandy victims and the world with a rendition of their early nineties song "Rape Me".... Apparently the USA government won't help the disaster victims of the Northeastern part of their own country so the population is reduced to begging for handouts from these snickering celebrity slimes?

Well, I hope that Faul didn't attempt "Feels like TEEN Spirit" with a straight face....oh wait, with a rubber, sagging face...
Seriously, why didn't they use "Faul" to sing lead with the Doors as a replacement for Jim Morrison? Really...."I'm the lizard king, I can do anything"......
I think that if Mick is having spells that he can't fulfill his duty as the lead singer for the Rolling Stones, Faul could perform for him as well.
Can't be any more ridiculous as his having been standing in as Paul Mc Cartney for the past 45 years!
They may even use him to replace Dick Clark on New Year's Eve....

Everyone who has been involved with Faul/Bill or linked to him as regretted it...and certain that if they are in a proverbial "grave", they would be rolling, kicking and screaming, and that includes all the candidates that were called "John Lennon", "Paul Mc Cartney", "Ringo Starr" and George Harrison, AND former lovers!

One thing pointed out in the Winged Beatle 2012 of "Give My Regards To Broad Street" and he walks into a room and they call him "Bill" or William, been a while since looking at that.
Not sure if that's the route you were going in your thread...but it's strange so many names linked to one replacement.
How many identities did this man have before he became "Sir Paul"?

I always liked the idea that Billy was called Billy Sheers because a shepherd 'sheers' sheep, therefore his real name was William Shepherd. It sounds like a Lennon play on words.

"Yoko Ono On Beatles' 'Divorce': 'They Were Getting To Be Like Paul's Band, Which They Didn't Like'
Newly released recordings of interviews with some of music's biggest names -- from Steven Tyler to Graham Nash -- reveal yet another wrinkle in the decades-long mystery of precisely why the Beatles called it quits.
In a recorded interview with industry bigwig Joe Smith (via Rolling Stone), John Lennon's widow Yoko Ono gets to the nitty gritty of what she described as a "divorce." While Ono maintained that Lennon was "feeling very good about" the breakup, she admitted that some tensions were forming within the band. "The Beatles were getting very independent," she said in the 1987 interview. "Each one of them [was] getting independent. John, in fact, was not the first who wanted to leave the Beatles. [We saw] Ringo [Starr] one night with Maureen [Starkey Tigrett], and he came to John and me and said he wanted to leave. George [Harrison] was next, and then John. Paul [McCartney] was the only one trying to hold the Beatles together. But the other three thought Paul would hold the Beatles together as his band. They were getting to be like Paul's band, which they didn't like."
Ono also said the breakup put some strains on her relationship with Lennon, noting that she felt the late icon missed his bandmates and "expected all that to be replaced by me."
All told, it's an account that matches up with McCartney's recent comments. In October, McCartney told David Frost that Ono "did not break the group up" because it was "already breaking up."
More recordings, including interviews with Harrison, McCartney, Mick Jagger, Ray Charles, David Bowie and many more are available at the Library of Congress' website."

Sounds like some of these lesser bands are a breeding ground for replacements of more popular bands, like the Pepperpots, Swinging Blue Jeans, etc.

"McCartney 'worried' over home visit
Sir Paul McCartney has revealed he has still to visit his childhood home since it was saved for the nation.
The former Beatles star said he was "a little worried" about the memories it may unlock if he heads back to the property at 20 Forthlin Road in Liverpool.
The home was bought by the National Trust and fans can make a pilgrimage to the terraced house along with the Mendips home of John Lennon.
In the interview with Radio 4's The Food Programme to be broadcast on Sunday, Sir Paul discusses his memories of food while growing up in the house, which was acquired for the nation in 1995.
Asked why he has not been back, he says: "I don't know why - I don't know whether I will be a little worried that it'll be too nostalgic or whether there will be a sadness about it that I don't associate with it at the moment. But I think I will one of these days."
