i must admit i admisre his "all star band" shows for the same reason Jazzy....
he brings a lot of forgotten artists together to showcase their usually small but impressive back catalogue....
therefore,
i see those shows as 'not being about Ringo', but about "good music in general.
i also like the way he usually has two drummers on stage...
one who plays the drums as a drummer should, and himslef who basically/simply "keeps the timing"....
you can really see the look of enjoyment on Ringo's face as other artists take the limelight and perform "their" songs.
His "all star-band" toured here last year, and got rave reviews for the intimacy of the shows,the showcasing of so-called forgotten talent and for the casual lighthearted 'feel' of the gigs.
i really regret now going to the gig here in Perth now.
