>>123662577Is that Gerry and the Pacemakers. Also, Pete Best is still alive.
>>123662593>Pete Bestmore like Pete Worst
>>123662593Imagine living your life knowing that if you just practiced drums more and were generally a cooler guy you could be a multimillionaire gigachad. Stories like this are truly horror stories and there are many of them.Dave Mustaine is like the version of this guy that just wouldn’t take it.
>>123662623He was cooler than all the Shittles, the real reason he got kicked out is that they were jealous of his good looks. Rest of them look like typical inbred bongs. That's why they hired Ringo who is as ugly as they're.
>>123662771Literally a legend started by Pete Best fangirls. Granted he was the most handsome and the fact he had his own fangirl following independent of the band itself says it all. What I mean by coolness is that he did not make friends with the rest of the band, he was always doing his own thing. Real reason he was fired is because George Martin basically ordered them to do it because he was a subpar drummer and not particularly reliable, by the time he was sacked Ringo was already filling in for him half the time.
>>123662822George Martin didn't like Pete's drumming (didn't like Ringo's at first either) but never told or even implied to the others to fire him, he just wanted to have a session drummer on the records and let them go out and gig however they wanted. The guys just took it as an excuse to finally sack Pete which they'd been putting off for years.
I like Pete Best
>>123662593I mean..so is Paul
>>123664902You mean "Fauxl" don't you?Paul McCartney died in an automobile accident in 1966.
>>123662822>>123662771That's surely the number 1 reason, as Lennon and McCartney surely hated that they'd be eclipsed by the guy who didn't write any music. Nerd envy.But I've also heard Best was very conservative, he wasn't a party animal like the rest of the band. So when they finished performing he was just going back to his hotel room. While the rest of the band wanted to paint the town red. So there was no personal chemistry between them
>>123662771scousers are the most powerful race
>>123664916The people who say this need to see a psychiatrist
>>123664902>>12366491628IF
>>123664928sounds like a swell dude. in an alternative universe he makes it as the frontman of some other band
>>123664916>"Fauxl"This would sound like 'foal' if you pronounced it out loud, not 'fall'
>>123665939>le tit be
>>123662842> So was George Martin right? Was the insistence of a self-contained group just sentimentality?> Why not get best players to play whatever songs you had for the record and you can send the 'personalities' out for the tour where all the screaming drowns out the playing anyway?I mean the Monkees was a complete repudiation of the new Beatles self-contained ethic (songs written by best experienced pop songwriters in country, played by best session players in LA, with the zany Beatlesque 20 year-old's just serving as the window dressing ) and they arguably had the best string of pop singles in 66-67 period (I'm a Believer, Last Train, Pleasant Valley, Daydream Believer).
>>123662577>groups of guitars>>>/out/
>>123664928>Paint the town red4Cuck is not for you anymore old man :)
band name?
>>123662623I read that although it was really hard on him for a while (culminating in a suicide attempt I think) he eventually got over it, made a life for himself and became happy.
>>123662623there is a guy like this behind almost every single great band. the lesson is to not let opportunity slip away when it knocks. or they just don't like you and you're fucked. i don't know
>>123662771>>123662842he was an abysmal drummer, his session recordings are public domain
