This week, Sir Paul McCartney made his long awaited stop in Tampa for the first time in 12 years. But the other living Beatle is also headed for the Sunshine State.
Ringo Starr and the All-Starr Band will already be making a stop in Florida this tour, just in Ft. Lauderdale for two nights at the Parker Playhouse. But sometime before or after those shows, he will play Clearwater. But it won’t be a ticketed performance. Ruth Eckerd Hall has a very exclusive “Friends Of Music” club that you must be invited to pay to get in, and only special people who have paid roughly $5,000+ get full access to exclusively private concerts by big name artists that do not take place at Ruth Eckerd Hall. Artists through the years have included Hall & Oates, Foreigner, Styx, and Toby Keith.
Ringo’s last time in Clearwater was in October of 2014 with his beloved All-Starr Band. It probably won’t happen, but in the meantime, here’s hoping that the performance will be made public. If not, maybe Ringo will drop by Tampa for at least one more public show before retiring to his octopus’s garden.
Peace and love.
