...just a bit of hostory i thought you of all people might be interested to know:::
july 6th, 1957 Paul McCartney meets John Lennon
'On this day in 1957, 15-year-old Paul McCartney attends a church picnic in the village of Woolton, near Liverpool, where he meets 16-year-old John Lennon. Lennon had formed a band called the Quarrymen, which was playing at the picnic. Between sets, McCartney played a few songs on guitar for the band, and a few days later Lennon invited him to join. At first, McCartney didn't take the group seriously-in fact, he missed his first performance with the band because he had a scouting trip.
Soon, however, the group had a loyal following. The group changed its name to Johnny and the Moondogs and recruited McCartney's friend George Harrison. After bassist Stu Sutcliffe joined, they changed the name again, to the Silver Beetles, eventually modified to the Beatles. Tommy Moore joined the band as drummer and was replaced by Pete Best in 1960.'

did you notice that the Beatles did not become successful UNTIL Ringo Starr joined the band... this is proof that Ringo was the MOST IMPORTANT Beatle of them all... without him, the Beatles would have never been, and 79% of the pop culture in Western civilization would have never happened! without Ringo, Aphex may have never been... Ringo is the only one that matters, as well as being the only one left alive!

Wha... only Beatle livin...
OHHHHH, I getcha. Yeah. *wink wink
Ringo was important for interpersonal reasons rather than musical. They weren't just a band, they were four unique individuals, and that affected their output. True story.
