When I run on stage now, a thousand people don't even see you, they're in their phone.
Ringo Starr

I think the most exciting thing is that you expect people our age to know the music, but actually a lot of kids know the music, and if anything is left, we have left really good music, and that's the important part, not the mop-tops or whatever.

I hope the fans will take up meditation instead of drugs.
Ringo Starr

The kids are interested in the music of them. They're not interested in mop-tops and Beatle boots and crazy suits. It's all down to the music now - that's what they hear, and that's what they love.
Ringo Starr
Image
I couldn't put my finger on one reason why we broke up. It was time, and we were spreading out. They were spreading out more than I was. I would've stayed with the band.

That's when we decided to stop in '66. Everyone thought we toured for years, you know, but we didn't. I joined in '62, and we'd finished touring in '66 to go into the studio where we could hear each other... and create any fantasy that came out of anybody's brain.

When they come here, the English make a choice: New York or L.A. L.A. suited me better, I just feel comfortable here.

Image
I've said this over and over again, but I love being in a band.
Ringo Starr
Image
I am truly grateful. I'm a grateful human being.
Ringo Starr
Image
No, no, no, I don't snort no more, I'm tired of waking up on the floor. No thank you please, it only makes me sneeze, then it makes it hard to find the door.

I like Beethoven, especially the poems.

Roy Orbison was the only act that The Beatles didn't want to follow.
Ringo Starr
Image
In 1989 I sort of got back into the music business and one of the reasons I got back in is [that] I put the first All Stars band together. It's actually progressed from that every other year, or every two years, I've put that together...more and more realizing that's what I do.

I've never had any big ideas about being the solo.
Ringo Starr

Every night there's a moment that I just wanna go back to bed. I just get nervous. Then I run on (stage) and as soon as I grab the mic then I'm fine.

Beatles, women and children first!
