Ringo is appearing on Soundstage tonight, or at least it is a rerun. Ringo Starr is being backed by the Roundheads and the special guest performer is Colin Hay. The Soundstage concert was taped on Friday June 25, 2005.
The Roundheads include: The Roundheads include Mark Hudson (guitar), Gary Burr (guitar), Gregg Bissonette (drums), Mark Hart (keyboards), Steve Dudas (lead guitar), Matt Bissonette (bass).
Here is the set list:
1. With a Little Help From My Friends
2. It Don't Come Easy
3. Octopus's Garden
4. Choose Love -- His latest single from his new album of the same name.
5. I Wanna Be Your Man
Colin Hay introduced
6. Who can it be now?
7. Don't Pass Me By -- Ringo does the first part on piano and it sounds just like the original.
8. I'm the Greatest -- written for Ringo by the late John Lennon
9. Give me back the beat
10. Memphis in your mind
(Ringo takes his jacket off)
11. Photograph -- a song written by him and the late George Harrison. (I just noticed the bass on this song is a right-handed version of Paul McCartney's Hofner bass guitar)
12. Back off Boogaloo -- this is one heck of a rock and roll song. Great guitar solos in there as well.
13. Yellow Submarine
(audience gives tremendous applause for Ringo Starr and the Roundheads)
14. Act Naturally
15. With a Little Help from my Friends -- sounds like this is the last song but I'm hoping there will be an encore performance but Ringo walks off the stage. No encore performance.
Due to a recent surgery on his shoulder, Ringo will not be on tour this year but he hopes to tour next year (source: Daytrippin')
Ah, the good ol' days of rock and roll. At 20 years old going on 21 (come Yom Kippur), I prefer the classic rock music to most of today's stuff.
