I play weird. I'm always just behind. We [drummers] only have so much room. We're not guitarists.

More quotes by Ringo Starr
I am, I definitely am. I'm really excited about that.
Ringo Starr
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.
Ringo Starr
I'm warning you with peace and love I have too much to do. So no more fan mail. Thank you, thank you. And no objects to be signed, nothing. Peace and love, peace and love.
Ringo Starr
I'm on my feet and I'm doing what I love to do, and I'm in a profession, as a musician, where we can go on for as long as we can go on.
Ringo Starr
I've never had any big ideas about being the solo.
Ringo Starr
I don't talk about myself in the third person, and I laugh at people who do.
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.
Ringo Starr
First and foremost I am a drummer. After that, I'm other things... But I didn't play drums to make money.
Ringo Starr
We thought we'd be really big in Liverpool.
Ringo Starr
I've always been playing with other people, and that's how I learned. I got a kit of drums I couldn't play, but I also knew a guitarist and a friend of mine played bass and could teach us bass, and we just played. And I learned.
Ringo Starr
I have no anonymity.I've not had a drink in nine and a half years. That's my whole story right there.
Ringo Starr
I hate click tracks. I'm to busy in the click track to feel my own heart rhythm, my own soul beat.
Ringo Starr
I hope the fans will take up meditation instead of drugs.
Ringo Starr
I made all my mistakes playing with people.
Ringo Starr
I'm not sleeping with all the women I appear with.
Ringo Starr
I've never really done anything to create what has happened. It creates itself. I'm here because it happened. But I didn't do anything to make it happen apart from saying 'Yes'
Ringo Starr
Gene Autry was the most. It may sound like a joke - Go and have a look in my bedroom, It's covered with Gene Autry posters. He was my first musical influence.
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
My soul is that of a drummer.... I didn't do it to become rich and famous. I did it because it was the love of my life.
Ringo Starr
If you made a record, I'd probably pick out tracks that I like and download that. That's just how it is.
Ringo Starr
