Ringo Starr's tour

I went to the Ringo Starr show Saturday night.  Fun show, more guests this time it seemed, so a little less Beatle music, they played almost 2 1/2 hours.   One guest I didn't even know would be with the band was formerly from the Average White Band...so he did a couple of their songs including Pick Up the Pieces.  I think Edgar Winter stole the show.  The man has not lost any enthusiasm for performing in the 30 years since I last saw him; he is just killer on the keys and saxophone, we all really enjoyed him, especially Frankenstein.  Gary Wright was there, I totally burnt out on his music from too much radio play, but he is a very talented song writer and he played a new song he wrote recently.  He told a very cool story about the song Dreamweaver.  He was friends with George Harrison and played on All Things Must Pass.  George gave him a book of poetry and there was a line that Gary wrote in his journal because he liked the way it sounded...it was about falling asleep and weaving dreams.  He later wrote a song around it.

Jim, I noticed you mentioned Shiela E., she wasn't there this time, but she is remarkable, saw her last time and didn't realized until I watched that Prince special on VH1 classic that Prince really gave her her big break!
