i would like to meet John or Ringo. John made me want to form a band and become a songwrite and Ringo made me want to be a drummer. although the three of us in a bar with george and paul walking in later would make one hell of a time...and then i woke up wondering if it was real.

None of them. Nothing so frustrating as standing in front of one of your heroes, stammering: "Hye, I...eh...I admire you... eh... very very much. I REALLY do." Knowing that: 1. You will never be able to let them understand how much exactly. 2. Knowing you 'd like to take them home with you, you'd love to take them home, but having to leave without them. 3. Knowing that you are one of so many and therefor not so special to them as you would like to be.
I'm one of those people that think fans should leave their hero alone. Just enjoy their music.
An anecdote in this respect: a colleague of my husband once met Bono. "I've always dreamed of this moment," he twittered. Bono's reply, bored: "Yeah, me too."
George would be my choice, natch. In addition to hanging peacefully in a garden, which suits me fine, I'd like to talk to him about the philosophy he evolved to help him deal with the madness he'd been through. He wasn't really a convert to any religion, but pulled what he liked from Eastern and Western thought into a unique life view for himself. His views about the environment are also spookily prescient. Not bad work for a scruff from Liverpool!
All you've got to do is choose love. That's how I live it now. I learned a long time ago, I can feed the birds in my garden. I can't feed them all. -- Ringo Starr, Rolling Stone magazine, May 2007
For all I know, Ringo might be a yogi disguised as a drummer! - George Harrison
It would have to be George. I just think he is SUCH a fascinating person. I really like a lot of his beliefs- and I think we would have a lot to talk about. And I love monty python so perhaps we have a similar sense of humour?
I would be scared to meet John Lennon. I don't think my intelligence would be up to it. He would be an incredible, incredible person to meet but Im pretty bad at talking politics so that part of it wouldnt work. Then again, there was a lot lot more to him than that- and people said he could talk for ages about 'any topic under the sun'. I would definately love to meet him- maybe the younger John more than the older John. He would be my second choice but George seems that bit gentler and more easy to talk to.
Ringo would be brilliant too though! Or Paul- although I feel I have the least in common with Paul.
But every so often you come across something truly inspiring...
all of them, at the same time of course. Then it would become clear with whom I connect the best. They're ALL so very interesting and intellegent (I don't want to give it all to John, you cannot underestimate the other mates) What's more important, I wouldn't want to meet them as a fan, if you know what I mean. Wouldn't it be a much easier and relaxed conversation talking to them like we do with our friends or best friends? They're only human like you and me, no need to wet ones pants. Yeah as if that would be as easy. One can dream, right?
I would have loved to meet all of them but if I had to choose I would love to meet Ringo. Why?? Because he's my favourite Beatle!! . I would probably ask him to teach me how to play the drums, hehe. I would also talk about art and, of course, about his days as a Beatle!!!
It would be impossable to talk to any of them becuase i would be too busy drooling all over myself but if i could talk to one of them without acting like a babbling idiot then it would be Paul, i feel that i have alot more similarities with him then any of the others.
I'd of course like to meet them all, but if I had to narrow it down to one it would definitly be Paul. He's my favorite and like my #1 hero ever, and I would like to meet him at any time of his career, now or back in the day. Preferably the Beatle days of course, like '64 or '65!
I actually want to start thinking in advance of what to say ('cause ya just never know, but yeah right, like it'll ever happen!), but it probably won't all come out the way I want it to since I'd be very excited but nervous all at once. I'd probably just say "Thank you so much for everything, you're the greatest, and I love you, I love you, I love you!" What I would really like to do is spend a day with him in the recording studio or something, and just really talk about everything and ask all the questions. I would love to carry on a conversation for as long as I want, and I would ask him to play me a song if he had an acoustic at hand!
I think if you just met one of them face to face for a few seconds, it would maybe be a good idea to have a letter written to them in advance and say all the things you want in it. Then, if you met them real quick, you could hand it to them personally so you know there's a better chance that they'll read it.

"Wings IV introduced Jimmy McCulloch, a spunky lead guitarist with grit, able to spur Paul on unlike any previous soloist. His debut track, the magnificent single `Junior's Farm', stands as one of Wings' finest emotional and technical releases."
"Few people on this planet know as much about Jimmy's musical history than you."
