Star Band gigs. He puts together on hell of a band! Of the tours I've seen,
here are the line ups.

#1: Clarence Clemmons, Rick Danko, Levon Helm, Dr. John, Jim Keltner, Nils
Lofgren, Billy Preston, Joe Walsh

#2: Timmy Cappello, Burton Cummings, David Edmunds, Nils Lofgren, Todd Rundgren,
Timothy B. Schmidt, Zak Starkey, Joe Walsh

#3: Randy Bachman, Mark Farner, John Entwhistle, Mark Riveria, Zak Starky,
Felix Cavaliere, Billy Preston

#4: Peter Frampton, Gary Brooker, Jack Bruce, Simon Kirke, Mark Rivera, Tood
Rndgren

#5: Sheila E., Roger Hodgson, Ian Hunter, Howard Jones, Greg Lake



It's difficult to say which one was the best. I loved hearing the old GFR and
Guess Who tracks having been a great fan of both bands. Gary Brooker soloed
doing A Salty Dog and it's no secret that I'm a PH fan too. The RS-ASB tour
with John Entwistle was the last time I was to see him perform. M and I had tix
for the Who tour wherein John passed away the day before the first show of that
tour. ;( Hodgson and Lake incarnations were also unforgetable. I still recall
Ringo saying, "I'm going to regret this but now I'm turning over the stage to
Mr. Greg Lake" to wit they followed with a complete rendition of CotCK! The
crowd went wild!

Sorry about that....

what a great collection of talent!

Erode away no problem!

Wikipedia has a list of these incarnations and the songs covered: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ringo_Starr_All-Starr_Band

Fun, fun, fun gigs. The Last two incarnations I missed for one reason or another. I would have love the last incarnation most of the 2 we missed -- I think we were traveling at the time.

Didn't someone say "Ringo isn't one of the best drummers in fact he isn't the best drummer in the Beatles".

My comments were strictly to Ringo's singing abilities which are far better than mine. I think Ringo is a talented drummer and delightful entertainer.
