 Who is Ringo supposed to be?  Any guesses?

My Sweet Cameos

 

The brand new music video for "My Sweet Lord" has dropped and it is interesting.   I honestly don't get how the video fits with the song.   However, it is pretty fun to watch because there are all sorts of great cameos and Easter eggs.  

Ringo Starr and Joe Walsh are in the movie theater, having popcorn and Ringo then throws popcorn on the guy that is looking for clues.   A few moments later, Weird Al is serving up some popcorn and Ringo comes by and shows how to drum with a flashlight until Joe drags Ringo back into the theater.   

I also spotted Jeff Lynne, Olivia Harrison, Dhani Harrison and a few other people.   

There were posters for "All Things Must Pass" in the movie theater and the items listed for sale behind Weird Al are actually the title of some of the songs on "All Things Must Pass."  You also see some of George's gnomes sitting in a few places.   I will have to watch again and see what other George Easter Eggs I spy.   The movie everyone is watching is something that we've seen in the "Living in the Material World" documentary, with George peeking out from behind the tulips.   I think it is longer than what we have previously seen.   

I tried to take a few screen grabs to share, but go on Youtube and check it out for yourself.   I liked the video, but I don't like it for "My Sweet Lord."

Ringo's big birthday show

What did you all think of Ringo's big show last night?    I thought it was great!  It was disappointing that Paul didn't send Ringo a quick happy birthday message and they just showed last year's performance of Helter Skelter, but besides that, I love it!    I really liked seeing Ringo's family wishing him a happy birthday.    His grandchildren are so cute!   

It is still on youtube if you haven't seen it.  It was a lot of fun -- which I know I personally haven't gotten very much of recently.

Happy Easter Everyone!

Recent Ringo

November 26, 2019 -- Ringo and Barb have dinner with friends and family in Beverly Hills.   

Shanghai Surprise!

Ringo is in the Far East with the All Starr Band right now.   He and bff/brother-in-law Joe Walsh just happen to bump into none other than Julian Lennon while in Shanghai!   What are the chances of that?   I bet Julian was surprised to see his Uncle Ringo.   

Peace, love and sobriety

Stand my ground

Back to work

Paul and Ringo (along with Bruce Sugar and Joe Walsh ) working on Ringo's new album today (February 19, 2017).  Is it just me, or does thing suddenly seem right in the world whenever you see Paul and Ringo together in the studio?

Having a super time!

Photo taken tonight (Feb 1, 2015) at the Super Bowl.    The only reason I ever would want to go to the Super Bowl is because Paul seems to go to it every year.    Why wasn't Ringo there?  (His best buddy Joe made it...why  not Ringo?)

The Knack

Reader Cara, send along this Ringo photograph from 2010.   Here is what she had to say about it:

My very good friend is the brother of Sharona (of "My Sharona" fame). He took this photo of Ringo with his niece and nephew (Sharona's kids) at the memorial for Doug Fieger of The Knack. The memorial was held at the House of Blues in West Hollywood on March 27, 2010. That's Joe Walsh on the left... don't know who's the guy behind Ringo's shoulder, though.
