Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band concert chronology

The Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band 30th Anniversary Tour was a concert tour by the rock supergroup Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band that began on 21 March 2019 at Harrah's Resort Southern California in Valley Center, California, and concluded on 1 September 2019 at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, California.[1] With concerts in the United States and Japan,[2] as well as one show in Canada,[3] the tour celebrated the anniversary of frontman Ringo Starr's first All-Starr Band tour in 1989.[1]

The setlist for the tour included songs by Starr—both by his former band the Beatles and from his career as a solo artist—as well as songs by All-Starr band members and their associated bands, including Steve Lukather and Warren Ham of Toto, Gregg Rolie (formerly of Santana and Journey), Colin Hay of Men at Work, and Hamish Stuart (formerly of Average White Band).[1][4] Drummer Gregg Bissonette also played on the tour.[1][4]

Reception

[edit]

Matthew Leimkuehler of The Tennessean, reviewing the 7 August show at Nashville, Tennessee's Ryman Auditorium, characterized Starr's stage presence as modest yet playful, and commended the "jukebox format [that] keeps the 130-minute show moving quickly."[5] He concluded that, "There's a carefree, no-nonsense quality to the show that's easy to embrace; it's plain-and-simple fun."[5]

Dan DeLuca, in his review of 14 August show at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania's Metropolitan Opera House, called Hay "the standout vocalist of the show", but noted that, "By the third go-round of non-Starr tunes, the show started to drag and became something to endure more than enjoy, with the crowd impatiently calling for 'Ringo!' between songs."[6] However, DeLuca concluded that "all was well once the Beatle came down off his drum throne and back into the spotlight [...] That Beatles magic was in the air, and everyone in the room was Ringo's friend."[6]
