Yes, the Beatles actually added several members to their band. Originally George was not part of the band, but still filled in as needed. After a few years he became one of the Beatles. Also, Ringo was not the Beatles' first drummer, the first drummer left the band so they let Ringo (real name Richard Starkey) join.

When The Beatles first formed, their drummer was Pete Best until 1962 when they joined a record company and first started becoming very popular (the start of beatlemania). At that time, they hired Ringo Starr (Richard Starkey) as their new drummer and he remained their drummer until their break up in 1970 (with the exception of a few weeks when Ringo was too sick to go on tour and Jimmy Nicol filled in until Ringo was better)
