Ringo Starr announced his 13th All Starr Band, which will launch June 14, 2012 from Fallsview Casino in Niagara Falls, Ontario and conclude July 21, 2012 at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles, California. The tour makes a stop at Ruth Eckerd Hall on Sunday, July 1 at 7:30 pm. Tickets go on sale this Saturday, March 3 at noon. This will be Ringo’s fourth appearance at Ruth Eckerd Hall, and like the previous 3 which were sold out, we expect tickets to go quickly. See below for a list of confirmed tour dates.
New to the All Starrs are Steve Lukather (Toto) and Gregg Rolie (Santana & Journey) who will join All Starr alumni Richard Page, Todd Rundgren, Mark Rivera, and Gregg Bissonette.
The tour is being produced by Dave Hart and as always fans can expect to hear a jukebox worth of hits. Ringo classic’s such as It Don’t Come Easy, Photograph, Little Help From My Friends, Yellow Submarine and Wings, from Starr’s just released 17th solo record, Ringo 2012 (Hip-O/Ume). All Starr’s hits include Rosanna, Broken Wings, Hello It’s Me, and Black Magic Woman.
Ringo will spend his birthday on the road, with a performance at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on July 7. Following in the tradition of the last few years, at Noon from the Hard Rock Nashville, Ringo will ask anyone anywhere, and everyone everywhere, to join him in a wish for Peace & Love.
