   You mean that the Beatles had a drummer besides Ringo Starr. Seriously?

   @ Chrisleech: Yep, the Beatles’ first drummer, Pete West, is famous for leaving the band right before they became famous and passing up the opportunity of a lifetime.

     Ironically, note that Pete West is indeed famous, for missing an opportunity to become famous.

     It’s as if Andy Warhol and Salvador Dali dropped acid together and then began examining the nature of celebrity.

       Actually, Pete Best was The Beatles’ first drummer. I don’t know who this Pete West guy is.

         He’s Adam West’s twin brother, who was actually cast as Batman, but fell ill on the first day of shooting, necessitating Adam’s filling in. Unfortunately for Pete, Adam was a much better actor.

         (Of course I’m kidding.)
