Ringo Starr & His All Starr Band has rolled out its rescheduled dates — which were first booked back in 2020. As it stands now, Ringo and the band will kick off the season on June 2nd at Boston's Boch Center Wang Theatre and — as of now — wind things down on June 26th in Clearwater, Florida at Ruth Eckerd Hall.
Along the way, Ringo is set to play double nights in Atlanta and Baltimore — with a triple-night run at New York City's Beacon Theatre.
The current edition of the All Starr Band features such veteran All Starr's as Toto's Steve Lukather, Men At Work's Colin Hay, Santana and Journey co-founder Gregg Rolie, along with percussionist Warren Ham, drummer Gregg Bissonette, and Hamish Stuart from the Average White Band — and a longtime Paul McCartney sideman.
Over 30 years since launching the first All Starr Band tour, Ringo Starr told us that the format of the show remains an unbeatable proposition: ["Y'know, and if you look at those clips, and the bands I put together, there was an incredible array of musicians. Y'know, it's just. . . for me, it works as a great formula. I didn’t wanna. . . when I thought about this in ’89, I didn’t want to be, like, up front all night. I wanted to play with really good players; I wanted to be able to come down in front and do some numbers like I do, and to play on the (drum) kit. And while I’m playing, I’ve got, y'know, all these different people, so it’s really a great way for me to do it, to have fun."] SOUNDCUE (:31 OC: . . . to have fun)
