What's In A Name?

Imagine the scene.

1963. The Beatles, in the recording studio of Abbey Road.

George Martin announces his famous comment to the band,"Well done boys, you have just recorded your first number one." Suddenly, Brian Epstein storms in.

"Hang about!" He shouts. "Turn that fucking racket off a minute."
George Martin turns off the sound and voices his concern, "What's wrong Brian?" "Shut it pretty boy or I'll dice you up." Epstein barks.
"We are fucked!" Shouts Epstein, "This band is finished, pack it all up you bunch of cunts!"

Epstein kicks over George Harrison's Sitar and punches the wall. "Watch my Sitar!" Shouts George. "You can forget about all that Indian shit my friend. You can all forget about all of this. I have just found out something that will finish us all."

The room falls silent, Yoko takes her seat in the corner and Linda stops knitting her sausages.

Epstein musters the voice to speak, "I have just found out....that Ringo Starr, is not Ringo's real name. He is called Richard Starkey."

The group all turn towards Ringo in anger. "Great Ringo, you've totally fucked us all, we have no chance at fame now. You are the best and you are using a false name." Paul shouts with his head moving one way and then the other.

"Sorry lads." Ringo mutters like a tank engine, "But as I am the best and the whole reason the band is any good, let's just not worry about it."

"Gear!" The band announce in tandem and begin to play their instruments.

"Great idea Ringo you old beauty!" Epstein announces, "I am off to overdose on pills!"

That was an excerpt from Ringo Starr's autobiography "The Postman Always Ringo's twice."

This is what Ringo Starr would have us believe. Of course, any sane person that has seen the recent Aviva adverts would probably agree that if you are good at something, or in a successful band, if matters not a fucking jot what your name is, but, if you pay them enough money they will say it does.

Would this have all happened to Richard Starkey? Yes. Would Walter Willis have got to play the leading man? Yes.

Don't be fucking stupid you idiots.

Next you will have Iggy Pop doing adverts for Car Insurance looking like a Portuguese fisherman's ball-bag.

My real name is Rat, and no one would have sex with me, but when I changed it to Ox nothing changed.
What is the significance of any of this??
