I love the photo of Ringo looking at the George photo of him riding the horse and Oliva is laughing. I wonder what memory that photo brought back to Ringo.

When Paul was on the Jimmy Kimmel Show -- he was wearing "Help!" socks. This man and his socks will always fascinate me. Did he buy that box of Beatles socks? We have seen him wearing the Yellow Submarine ones in the past....
Today (October 8, 2026) is my 50th birthday. Yes, I am a bicentennial baby. I think this photo of Paul from the Apple Anniversary concert earlier this year is a good one to celebrate with. Hope you all are having a good day. What am I doing for my big day? Nothing. I am working somewhere near the Chicago area and tutoring. It is just another day....
Boston declared September 30 to be "Ringo Starr Day." Whoo hoo! I think this needs to be an internatinal holiday, don't you think?
On his birthday, Ringo received an honorary doctorate in music from the University of Liverpool.

No one is certain why-- but Paul was spotting in Italy yesterday. I hope he and Nancy and going to enjoy some rest and relaxation. Paul had been hitting it hard the last month promoting his album and need time to relex.

I am sure many of you have seen the video of Ringo singing "With a Little Help From My Friends" while wearing a pink Sgt. Pepper jacket. Many people are asking -- "where did he get that?" Well -- I found the Ringo fan who owns the jacket that Ringo is wearing and have her story straight from her on how Ringo came to wear it for this now iconic moment.
From crawlerr on X:
BEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE! I brought a pen for Ringo to sign my coat (even though I'm sure he doesn't do autographs anymore) And nearing the end of the show, I ran up to the barricade/rope-thing and waved my pen in the air for his attention. This kind lady behind me told me I HAD to get closer to the stage, so she pushed me under the rope, and Ringo prompted me to come closer to the stage, so I jumped up and down waving my pen more, and he leaned down and said, "I'll do ya somethin betta! Hand me your coat." SO I DID
I started crying SO hard, and all I could muster to say was "RINGO I LOVE YOU!" AND HE REPLIED, "I love you, babe!" SO, NATURALLY, I SOBBED EVEN MORE. That's when he told me to stay where I was as he performed A Little Help From My Friends
After that, he noticed me absolutely bawling my eyes out, so he patted my head and told me everything's alright. SO YEAH, I CRIED EVEN MORE. I stayed after the show til they kicked me out, but SECURITY GAVE ME HIS DRUM STICKS! I'M BLESSED.

Thank you crawlerr for sharing your amazing story! What a great "Meet the Beatles...For Real" encounter!
Paul has really been hitting the ground running to promote The Boys of Dungeon Lane. The Tik Tok live he did last week was interesting. He was in a building in London where the carpet, curtains and uhh..wall paper all have the same design. Is this MPL? And shockingly he is NOT WEARING SOCKS!
