Does Ringo suck???

[Mr Linkster]

Well does he?

[Margrét]

No, Ringo has never and will never suck. He is made of awesome just like all the other Beatles ;)

[Ellie Carolina]

Heeeeck no, especially not with that face (=

[Krishna]

noooooooo made of pure awesome =D Second favourite beatle but kind of on the same level as John. It's a tie.

[StrawMaryFields]

No :( ringo is awesome! I love Ringo. i just saw him on Jimmy Fallon thursday night and was so excited I jumped up and down. and that was through the tv, 40 years after he was in the Beatles lol. he's just awesome. period. and it's true, the beatles wouldn't have been THE BEATLES without one Mr. Richard Starkey.

RINGO!!!

He sucks!!! The best example to show what a lousy drummer is that his own son (Zak Starkey) learnt to play the drums with his godfather, Keith Moon (from The Who). No wonder why Zak is waaaaaaaaaaaaay much better drummer than his dad.

Another reason why he sucks is that a friend of mine met him years ago in a supermarket in Aspen. My friend asked him for an autograph and Ringo said "No, I am not working right now".

[StrawMaryFields]

um, so freaking what? he didn't sign an autograph. if he gave every person that came up to him an autograph he'd go insane. especially since he's been in the public eye for over half his life. I say he deserves his peace. he has every right to refuse that. he probably wasn't an ass about it, just upfront and honest. Ringo is awesome.

[thescompostura]

He's rich just because of the fans. Let me say it in a different way, HE IS SOMEONE JUST BECAUSE OF THE FANS (and Paul, John and George...without them he was nothing but a drummer). He owes them everything in life, he doesnt realize how much people love him and how much an autograph means to a fan. So, yes, he sucks and he is an ass.

Starr also responded to allegations that he had asked his fans to "back off" and explained why he no longer signs autographs.

"I just said to fans that I'm not signing anymore," Starr said.

"That what it was, it wasn't back off, I'm not a vicious man. I don't sign anymore, people say sign this and I just say no."

doesn't sound like an ass to me. but I guess we're going to have to agree to disagree.

[Cookey]

Ringo is still awesome. He was a Beatle, after all. You have to be awesome to be a Beatle. It's like a law. Practically.

Besides, the autograph crap must get annoying. Think about it if you were put into the same situation.

[Nick Langston]

No. He's awesome. His drumming style, he's a freakin Beatle, he's my hero, he's awesome and does not suck.
Except he really should sign some autographs. It would make me pretty angry if I saw him and he wouldn't sign something for me.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO He's not the best looking man but thats not his fault!!
