He was 22.
yes actually Ringo Starr always loved the drums and the rest played the guitar at young age
If your talking about their age then Ringo Starr was first, then John Lennon, Paul McCartney, then George Harrison. If your talking about the order of when they became members it's John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, then Ringo Starr.
No. Just half. John Lennon was shot by a deranged fan on December 8, 1980. (age 40) George Harrison died on November 29, 2001 (age 58). Still alive as of 2016 are Paul McCartney (born June 18, 1942) and Ringo Starr (born July 7, 1940).
The Beatles came together as a band in 1960, and broke up officially in 1970, so they were a band for ten years. John Lennon was shot and killed in 1980, and George Harrison died from lung cancer in 2001. Ringo Starr is 69 years old, and Paul McCartney is 67 years old.
The Beatles were born between 1940 (John & Ringo) and 1943 (George). So as of 2009, Ringo is around 69, Paul is 67. John died at 40, and George at 58. John died at the age of 40 in 1980. George died at the age of 58 in 2001. Paul is 66. Ringo is 68.
He had ALL the rings on his fingers, and now at age 72 also has some in his ears.

Ringo Starr was the drummer for the legendary band called the Beatles. He left school at age 15. After John Lennon's death he was the first to go see Yoko Ono. He was the narrator in a few of the Thomas the Tank Engine shows. He was the last to join the Beatles. He went to school with Billy Fury.
George Harrison was a school friend of Paul McCartney; they met riding the same bus back and forth every day. When McCartney joined John Lennon's initial band the Quarry Men in 1957, fourteen-year-old Harrison began tagging along to their shows, bringing his guitar. If another member didn't show up, he was allowed to fill in for them.Harrison could already outplay the rest of the Quarry Men's guitarists, but wasn't considered at first for membership because of his young age. Lennon thought of him as a "bloody kid" who tended to get in the way, but was gradually won over; Harrison would play "Raunchy", a mutual favorite song, anytime Lennon wanted. Over time the rest of the band quit, leaving just Lennon, McCartney and Harrison.Goerge Harrison joined the Beatles when they were still known as the Quarrymen in 1957 George was 15 at the time
The Beatles last ever public concert performance took place at Candlestick Park, San Francisco, USA, on the 29th of August, 1966. George Harrison - Born 25-Feb-1943 John Winston Lennon - Born 09-Oct-1940 James Paul McCartney - Born 18-Jun-1942 Richard (Ringo Starr) Starkey - Born 07-Jul-1940 The combined age of the Beatles at their last concert would have been 98. Their average age would have been 24.5.
Stuart Sutcliffe, John Lennon's classmate in art school, was the original bass guitarist for the Beatles. (He was not a great musician, and was there mostly for "image".) He left to because he became engaged to the Beatles' German photographer friend, Astrid Kirchherr, and died a few months later of a brain hemorrhage at age 21. Tommy Moore was the first drummer to play with the Beatles, once they had chosen that name. He quit after a few weeks. Pete Best joined them for their first Hamburg booking, and stayed with the band two years. He was replaced in 1962 by Ringo Starr. Jimmy Nicol substituted for Starr for 10 days during the 1964 Australian tour, while Starr had a tonsillectomy and recovered from it. He was never considered for permanent membership. John Lennon's original band the Quarrymen, which Paul McCartney and George Harrison had initially joined, regrouped in the 1990s, played shows and made some recordings. Pete Shotton, Lennon's boyhood friend who had started the Quarrymen with him, also performed with them. And John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, of course.
