Quite fittingly, Ringo celebrates his 71st birthday playing a show in Hamburg. I had thought, 50 years previously, he could have been playing in the same city (even sitting in for the Beatles), but as it turns out John, Paul, George & Pete returned home the week before. And anyway, I've since found this that states "Legend has it on Ringo's 21st birthday, 7th July 1961, nearly 200 local musicians and their girlfriends packed into the tiny house for a party".
Here's to the one and only Billy Shears!
Peace & Love!
