Pete Best Help?

Unread post by Lauren81492 »

I'm a huge fan of the Beatles, as you can see, and would like to have Pete Best's autograph because he was such an integral part of their history. Only thing is, I'm not sure what to say to a guy whose claim to fame is that he was fired before reaching international superstardom. Any thoughts?

I love the Beatles, Yoko Ono, and Pete Best as well. I sent him a letter saying that I had seen him in concert, and, that I loved it, and, I also told him that he was a great drummer, and that I was a huge fan of his music. I didn't even mention The Beatles, and, I recommend you don't either. He hears too much of that, I'm sure. Just compliment him, and request and autograph. That's all you need to do. I hope that helps!

I was going to try to get him in person after a concert earlier this year, but the show was cancelled, I was considering writting to him, but I also drew a blank. I've also considering buying an auto off of his site, I still want to write to him, but it is hard.

Thanks, Isaiah, you've been a big help. I just have one more question: I won't mention the Beatles, but what if I sent a picture of him when he was with the Beatles? I could probably find a newer one to send if it would increase my chances of getting it signed, it's just that a Beatles photo would mean more to me. What do you think?

Hi, I sent him his album called "Best Of The Beatles", which has a picture of Pete, Stu, George, John, and Paul, so, I assume he wouldn't mind signing a photo of the Beatles. Glad I could help.

It was interesting to read your mails here. Yes rightfully said what does one write to someone fired before gaining international fame. isaih also spoke well when he said dont mention the bestles and talk about his music insted. Even I want to write to him and I am from India. I cant say that I have seen him in concert but I can say that he was a great drummer -musician. Does Yoko Ono sign through the mail.
Thanks guys for this interesting topic.
Raj,
India.

I wrote to him a few months ago, I mentioned The Beatles and everything and he still signed for me. I've never seen him in concert either.

Hope this helps.
