Ringo; but as he joined late and all the guitar spots were taken he had to play the drums and the violin.

Speaking of which; how many Beatles songs feature Ringo on the violin?

Only one: Don’t Pass Me By . He never picked it up again.  

EDIT: What happened when interviewers forgot to ask the Beatles questions?

The Beatles asked them questions. John would inquire if anyone had a lizard collection, Paul would ask if anyone had a sister, George asked why everyone was dressed so badly compared to them, and Ringo would always want to know where the Scotch was because he’d run dry.

What odd instruments did Paul sneak into Beatles songs, and which songs?

Didgeridoo. It’s a little-known fact that Paul originally played didgeridoo before switching to bass. It’s difficult to determine how many times it was featured, because it is often very quiet in the mix. 

 

Which two Beatles wore the same shoe size?

George and Egroeg. 

And here they are together:

The resemblance is uncanny, isn’t it? 

 

Approximately how many teenagers grew their hair to emulate the Beatles from 1964-1966?

He didn’t go to the sun because the sun came to him. George saw it coming and wrote a song about it. 

 

What was Paul’s sheepdog’s name (the one that inspired a Beatles song which I borrowed a phrase from for my username)?

He was the banker on the corner of Penny Lane . Each Beatle opened their first bank account there. Paul mentioned him in a song.

Why did John wonder if anyone was going to listen to his story all about the girl who came to stay?

He was a man of many talents.
