Don't think Ringo's worth it. I mean, I realize these people grew up during that time and are on a nostalgia buzz, but 50 years from now is anybody going to care?

Perhaps I would feel differently if I were a huge Beatles fan, but I can hardly imagine it.  The music may have been interesting at that particular moment in time, but I don't see an eternal value to it....certainly not worthy of this sort of preservation effort.  Preserve the music, that's fine.  But an old brick house?  I could see it (maybe) if it was the home of an absolutely 'essential' figure of profound historical significance, but the Beatles' drummer?   "pounding furry stoat head on table"

Maybe that's what they said about Bach or Beethoven. Who cares. Tear it down.

I wanted to introduce my children to some decent music and picked a selection of Beatles music, including "Yellow Submarine" and others. They listen to it non-stop now. I don't think you can kill classics, and Beatles stand out among most others as "classic".
