Bruce Springsteen Starr-struck at Ringo's State Theatre show
Ringo Starr got by with a little help from his friends -- and some famous folks in the house -- at his Sunday, Oct. 25 show at the State Theatre in New Brunswick.
Bruce Springsteen watched the show from the audience with his mom, Adele Springsteen, after stopping backstage to say hello and goodbye to the Beatles legend, according to the theater.
Starr posted a pic of himself and Springsteen and a fella named Wayne on his social media sites prior to the show.
"Great to see Bruce," said Starr.
The Boss performed with Starr and his All-Starr Band in 1989, when Clarence Clemons and Nils Lofgren were in Starr's band, at the then-called Garden State Arts Center in Holmdel. Springsteen has a history of performing at the State Theatre going back to the mid-1970s. The last time he took the stage there was in in 1995, when he began his "The Ghost of Tom Joad'' solo acoustic tour at the venue.
The latest version of the All-Starr Band includes Todd Rundgren, Gregg Rolie from Santana, Steve Lukather from Toto and Richard Page of Mr. Mister.
