Would you hire any of the Beatles to be a member of your band in 2022?

Considering the entire package of musical ability, attitude / ego, song writing ability, etc.

Assume young-ish Beatle for each of them.

Yes.

George circa 1967-1970

Id sit down with him, take an extreme amount of Acid and show him how far we have come with distortions and effects, as our guitars mourn in ferocious hatred

Can they rap?

Considering the music scene in 2022, why would you want a Beatle in your band?

In fact, why would you even want to have a band?

I would hire literally any Beatle in a heartbeat, even Ringo. They were all expert songwriters. People forget that Ringo had the most #1 hits of any Beatle's solo career.

George made deep emotional music with his guitar, Paul was an excellent bassist and keys player with a knack for catchy pop hits, and John brought edge and energy.

I feel like Paul would be the one I would choose as his skill-set would most compliment my own.

Hiring McCartney as a songwriting partner, singer and utility player would be the easiest decision in the history of decisions.

A Tiger Beetle would look awesome on the stage if it were extremely large.

Yeah, they only live for around 6 weeks so it would have to be maybe a week old.

Either that or George (at any age).

George & Paul, obviously. Ringo & Lennon, not so much…

Yes I'd hire John and Paul as leaders. They would co songwriter and lead sing. George as a lead guitarist and let him write 10% of the songs. I'd hire Ringo as the drummer. Put em all in a band together and they'd be really freaking good.

I’d like to just hang out with Ringo. That would be fun.

Yes

Every last one of them.

Greatest songwriter ever in Lennon aside from additionally being perhaps the greatest rythym guitarist ever.

Massively talented musician, bassist and vocalist in McCartney.

Great accompanying lead guitarist that turned into quite possibly the 2nd best songwriter in the band in Harrison.

And the perfect rock and roll, backbeat holding drummer in Ringo.

You'll never see a better band in your life, in your children's lives or in your grandchildren's lives.
