Ok maybe a dumb question here but I have just spent the last several hours playing every band and did not one that played what is called a Mersey drum beat...
If you don't know what the Mersey beat is...listen to the Beatle song, From Me To You...
Cheers

The Mersey Beat. It’s a pattern that’s currently missing in the BIAB drum repertoire. But be aware that it can vary quite a bit, but for ‘From Me to You’ (and ‘Dr Robert’) Ringo uses the following drum pattern in one bar that is repeated with some additional fills:
Eight taps on the cymbal A hit of the snare on the first tap and seventh tap And a hit on the bass drum on the first tap; a half time hit on the fourth tap and a full time hit on the fifth tap.
The best way to implement this is to use a Sequencer/DAW (e.g. Sonar, Reaper or Real Band) using for example EZ Drummer or equivalent to program the drum pattern and transfer as required other sound tracks based on the chords generated by BIAB.
If you need to get the detail drum patterns get the entire music scores:
The BEATLES Complete Scores by Hal Leonard Corp. ISBN 0-7935-1832-6 1993.
It has musical notation parts for all instruments used in all their songs.
(Tip: If you get into the Beatles style as I have, getting hold of the EW ‘Fab Four’ sound library is a good move as it contains many of the exact original instrument sounds used by them.)

Had a quick look, here's one I found that might be close to it Mersey_beat_Stereo Audio_0.WAV Mersey_beat.WAV I can make up a RD Mersey set. I will look more tomorrow.

One possible way to get the Mersey beat is to download a MIDI version of the song that has the beat you want. There are free midi files and others that can be purchased however the purchased ones are generally better. Once you have the MIDI file just use the drum track. You can use it as the MIDI file or convert it to a wav.
Good luck.
I just posted a selfie and all of the responses were get well soon!
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
