Ringo Starr, Vegas lounge singer?
Former Beatle Ringo Starr may be the latest music legend headed toward a residency in Sin City. The 73-year-old drummer-turned-frontman hinted at the possibility Tuesday at a press conference in Hollywood to announce Latin American tour dates for Ringo and His All Starr Band.
"You mean like 'The Golden Drums?' Like - what is it - 'The Red Piano?'" he quipped, invoking the name of Elton John's Las Vegas show. "It's been talked about, but nothing's been finalized. We have a couple years before that happens, I believe. So what is the answer? Not yet." The Beatles already have a strong track record in the Nevada gambling capital. The Cirque du Soleil production "Love" - which features the music of the Fab Four - has been a staple on The Strip since 2006.
