Ringo Starr Wow!

conlt — Mon, 10 Feb 2014 05:04:18 GMT

I can't believe the great performance that Ringo Starr gave tonight. At 73 years of age, he is still Rockin! I hope I can move like that when I am 73.

I said the same: "WOW!!".........I hadn't a clue how strong and deep his voice is. Lots of energy, too. I had thought of him as mostly a drummer. I'm truly impressed. Great show!

I think Ringo looks fantastic for 73 1/2!! He's got great moves and seems to really enjoy himself...has a great sense of humor too!

I saw him in concert about 4 years ago with his all star band. I have seen a lot of groups and Ringo's show was one of the best. Not sure why he doesn't get more recognition.

And how sweet he was to give a shout-out to Dave Grohl's adorable little daughter! When I was in second grade, I was sure I would marry Ringo when I grew up. Darn that Barbara Bach for stealing my man!

I thought the same thing - not only that but Ringo's voice still sounded the same but he was still moving around the stage a lot. Don't get me wrong - Paul was great as well but his voice seemed strained (maybe from all the yelling they were all doing). And, it was also great to see that at some point Yoko had come back into the fold. I'm guessing when they spoke of George and flashed to a woman, that probably was his wife?.

And yep, loved the Dave Grohl shoutout to his little girl.

Ringo, Paul and all of the others . . . there wasn't one bad performance in the show. I just loved and watched the whole two and a half hours. It brought me back to the times when music was fantastic. I wish there had been more of a tribute to John and George, but that would be my only critique.

He looks really good.

Watching now -- recording. Ringo is on the drums. He looks slim and his voice is great. He's in great shape. I noticed Yoko Ono was dancing up a storm during his song about boys. Her handsome son next to her. I see some of John's features in his face. Where's Eric Clapton? Where's all the Beatles kids who are musicians? Loved seeing George's son and Ringo with his wife and seeing the affection between them. They've been together for a while.

This is the first time I've really appreciated Yellow Submarine. How fun.

Loved it!!!

I've always thought Ringo looks exactly the way a 73-year-old rocker should look. He obviously didn't fall prey to some of the temptations--or at least, not all of them--other rockers have given in to. Keep going, Ringo!

Ringo was always my favorite! He looks like he is still the same size he was 50 yrs ago! He was wonderful ............. loved the two of them together singing my favorite, "Hey Jude"!

hmmmmm...I guess I'd have to wear my Ringo t-shirt along with my Richard Sherman jersey. I could do that!

Agreed that Ringo was fantastic - he's aged fabulously! Loved Paul too. Missed John and my dear sweet George though.
