Welcome to the Lockn' Forum - The home of the original Lockn' Music Festival family!
He'd be a headliner. And that is a reason not to have him. The thing about the Beatles is that the total is greater than the sum of the parts. The band was clearly a musical powerhouse, and Lennon/McCartney outstanding writers. Harrison had chops, individually. But as musicians, none of them played anything that any decent bar band can't play note for note. And among them, Ringo was the weakest--we all love Maxwell's Silver Hammer, and that's about it. He was a self-taught drummer who rode along, and had an off-stage persona that was important to the band as a "pop fave". He and David Cassidy kept Tiger Beat in business, I guess. Whether Ringo should appear at Lockn is a business decision. He'd be a headliner. And that is a reason not to have him.

Guess depends what age range you consider "young". I would look more towards TTB, Alabama Shakes, Pigeons, Lettuce and Spafford. Phish are more the grandfathers at this point. Widespread and UM not far behind.
In fact, if the long term viability is a top priority, and you want to stick to a jam band festival, at some point in the near future you will need to back off pricing as the old bands fade out (or are gone) and bands that draw smaller crowds are the headliners. There wont be bands that draw the crowds once phish and dead are gone so, you either drop the price or add a shit load of perks for everybody.
Oh, and give TTB a fucking headlining slot already!
Headliners in 2023: GSBG, TTB, MMJ, TTB

I can't see Phish back given the new smaller field, but could see Trey and band. And please no Ween! That was a disaster and shouldn't be repeated.
Lettuce needs to be back again, along with TAUK and similar Funky bands. I'm sure String Cheese will be back next year.
I wouldn't mind some Zappa. Dweezil is doing a fine job of reproducing his dad's stuff, I could see him making an appearance.
Little Feat! Time's running out, need to make that one happen.

Like the looks of this except maybe switch Los Straitjackets for Greta VF afternoon set then later bring out Nick Lowe's Quality Rock & Roll Revue Starring Los Straitjackets.
Please ignore the rumor I'm starting.
You heard it here first: TayTay featuring J-May headlining Friday.

Also, I strongly disagree with you on the Beatles chops. Paul is a fantastic, creative bass player. Just because someone isn't a virtuoso doesn't mean they don't have chops.
