Ringo was borned Richard Starkey and his nickname was Ritchie. He was born 7. July 1940, and is the oldest one in The Beatles.

He grew up in a slum-influenced district. His parents Elsie Gleave and Richard Starkey met eachother when they worked in a bakerystore, and they got married in 1936.

They bought themselves a small house in Madryn Street.
Ringo was Elsies and Richareds only child, and traditionally he got his fathers name.

Ringos parents got divorced when he was only three years old.

Ringo started at school early, but after the first year he got appendicitris which ended in the stomach/belly membrane. Ringo became very ill and spent a whole year at the hospital.
...enough, enough..... .. :D
 
ok ok, I'm late for this... but I also like American Idol... however, they need to slow it down a bit, for the idol factor (is that the right term?) to set in. They seem to be interested in spinning out new idols, hardly allowing the previous idol to get a fair chance at their singing careers. It doesn't make much sense to me, and despite what producers are predicting, I 'predict' the shows (fairly early) burnout if the pace stays as it is. Anyway, that is my thoughts on it.

Oh yeah, and I like the blonde who does country (even though I hardly listen to that music), and I like the next Miss Whitney. They both rock. The "rock stars" of the show are plain tired out. They are not different from any other wannabe rock star and have no star power, or real like-ability factor at all IMO. Personally, I could see them both as successful singers... but selling out stadiums? Nope.

JMO!
 
Hey, Joe...great pic!! The acordian was funny! My husband's father and his brother and sister all had accordians. Jim's dad didn't like his..he went the way of the leather wearing biker...complete with skull necklace and tattoos. One of his first jobs was repairing Indian motercycles..
My husband (JIM) says that Ringo was the only one of the Beatles with formal music training.
