About Ringo Starr tickets

What can one say about Ringo Starr? The humorous drummer for the Beatles, who gained his own following as the hapless, self-flagellating, endearing Brit, Ringo has become an icon himself, nurturing a career that, while enigmatic and celebratory, has endured, leading him from the Beatles to solo recordings, into movies and other pursuits. As a result, Ringo Starr is, more than anything else, a curiosity. Born Richard Starkey in 1940 in Liverpool, England, Ringo adopted his name because of the rings he wore as drummer for his first band, Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. He was asked to join the Beatles, replacing original drummer Pete Best, in 1960, and the band rocketed to rock and roll history shortly after, leading to a worldwide craze called Beatlemania. With the Beatles, Starr provided a dependable and steady back beat, but also contributed vocals, adding his forlorn sound to the hits 'With a Little Help From My Friends,' 'Yellow Submarine' and 'Act Naturally' among others. Because of his trust-worthy and creative-yet-simple drumming with the Beatles, Starr was named fifth-best drummer of all time by Rolling Stone Magazine. Since the Beatles' breakup in 1972, Starr has dabbled in several activities, acting in movies, such as Caveman in 1981, and on television, hosting TV's Thomas the Tank Engine children's show. Still, all the while, he has continuously recorded his music, releasing Y Not in 2010, while engaging in humanitarian projects around the world with other music icons. It's difficult to capture the life of one of pop's most beloved figures in short copy, but Ringo Starr tickets are a much better way to witness the appeal, talent and pure entertainment of the man who was a Beatle.
