Ringo a big hit at Bethel

It was great seeing so many familiar faces at Ringo’s first U.S. concert this time around, at Bethel Woods at the original site of Woodstock. It was a beautiful evening (only a smattering of drizzle) and we were treated to a fun show. Each of the All Starr Band members performed two of their hits. First time band member Rick Derringer was a definite highlight. He was super on lead guitar on numerous songs including Hang on Sloopy and Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo. Gary Wright performed Dream Weaver and Love is Alive. He told a very nice story about George, which Ringo had a funny response to. Of course, Gary will be telling lot’s of great Beatles related stories at the Chicago FEST in August.
