Ringo Starr to headline Las Vegas Strip for 6 shows
Ringo Starr and His All Starr Band’s tireless Peace and Love tour is returning to the Strip.
It’s an unofficial title, but it Starr’s enduring message. His band is back at The Venetian Theatre from Sept. 17, 19, 20, 24, 26 and 27 . All shows are at 8:30 p.m., and tickets are on sale 10 a.m. Friday Pacific time at Ticketmaster.com.
Steve Lukather, Colin Hay, Warren Ham, Hamish Stuart, Buck Johnson and Gregg Bissonette make up the current All Starrs. The band most recently played The Venetian for three dates in May.
Starr has released his first country album, “Look Up.” He played the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville on Jan. 14-15, to air as “Ringo & Friends Play the Ryman” at 8 p.m. Pacific/Eastern on Monday and streaming on Paramount+ in the U.S.
Starr’s superstar friends in that special include Sheryl Crow, Rodney Crowell, Mickey Guyton, Emmylou Harris, Sarah Jarosz, Jamey Johnson, Brenda Lee, Larkin Poe, Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, The War And Treaty and Jack White.
Starr assembled his band in 1989 and has toured consistently since, frequently switching up the roster. His shows at The Venetian have usually lasted up to 2½ hours, with Starr’s band playing their own selections along with Ringo’s songs with the Beatles and his solo hits.
