They came on stage with masks. By the time I got my phone out most of them had taken them off lol. But I was able to capture one image of a wolf mask on a band member in the 3rd picture and after searching was able to capture a picture of Ringo. Hang on so I can download it.

Here's a picture of the mask Ringo wore when he came on stage. It's the best photo I have lol. Hey I didn't notice the bear on the drums lmao.

Does anyone know if there were tour programs available to purchase in Brooklyn or any other dates towards the end of the tour? At the Philly show I was planning on buying one but one of the workers at the merchandise stand said they did not have tour programs.

Hi. At the last show in Brooklyn there was a Tour Program but I didn't buy it. (For some reason it looked familiar, like from the last tour. But I didnt think that was possible?????) They only had about 5 different shirts (many sizes were sold out) along with a litho poster. I didn't see anything else; as compared to the last tour I bought a tour program, a tote bag and keychain, besides a shirt. They didn't have much to offer. D/k if because it was the end of the tour. I checked everywhere online and I didnt see a tour program anywhere; not even his website.

They had a program in Baltimore the night before. $30 damn dollars for a few pages. I passed.

I'm not sure why I didn't see any programs in Philly. I also didn't see any of the button sets either. Hopefully Ringo's online store will update soon with new merchandise. While on the topic of tour merch, I purchased the white shirt with the tour dates on the back. I noticed that instead of Brooklyn, NY the shirt read Brooklyn, PA.

There were no buttons in Baltimore...didn't know he had any on this tour. I got the black tour shirt...wanted the blue with the song titles, but they didn't have any Large or XL left. Usually they get all his stuff online pretty quickly. That's unfortunate about the city!

:I haven't ever read or looked through the one "given" to us at a Paul soundcheck about a year ago. Never buy those things.

I bought Ringo's programs in in the 08/10/12 tours. But the band lineup hasn't changed this year or last year so I haven't been inclined to do so...they were also $20 before (maybe even $15 in '08...can't quite remember). I've never bought one of Paul's programs. They always seemed over-priced and low in quality.

How was the Charlottesville concert? Was it indoors or outdoors? Beautiful country, there.

It was indoors at the John Paul Jones arena on the UVA campus. It was a very small arena for Paul...something like 13,000 capacity. Paul was in fine form, although it was probably the worst audience I've seen t his shows. The vast majority were up and down all night and seemed genuinely disinterested. Afterwards, the guy behind me said to his friend..."it wasn't brad paisley, but it wuz s'alriiight"
The drive down from Baltimore was absolutely gorgeous. It was an unforgettable trip and I still enjoyed the concert greatly of course!! -
I admire your perspective. I refused to let others ruin my experiene, as well, though their partying can make it challenging at times.

Absolutely! I'm not there for them...I'm there for me and Paul...and that is all!

Thought I'd just post this here. On the most recent Hawaii Five-O episode, at the end, Ringo's song "Island In The Sun" was played!

I went to the All Starr show in New Brunswick NJ, the place was packed, it seemed like everyone was having a good time. I never complain about seeing Paul or Ringo cause it's not everyday you get to say you are going to see one of The Beatles. But after three or so tours with this group I am really ready for a change. There were a few points in the show when I was a little bored with the same All Starr songs, if he wants to keep the same lineup at least change some of the songs next time. Ringo was great even if he also plays mostly the same old stuff, he is still funny and I love his banter between songs. Two years in a row now with Ringo adding "Hare Krishna" to it's rightful spot during "It Don't Come Easy" I love that!! First "You're Sixteen" in many years for me so that was nice to hear again, and I really liked "Island In The Sun" sounded just like the record. No merch for me, I always buy a tourbook but I recognized the cover and knew I already had that one, some of the inside may have been different but that doesn't bother me. Not sure if all the venues are enforcing this but the State Theatre was very strict about no photography etc. to the point of being annoying, the ushers were constantly scolding someone. Overall another enjoyable Ringo show but like I said time to mix up the band again.

I agree. If the band isn't shaken up (and I have my doubts that it will be, Ringo is very attached!) then they've got to shake up the material. Steve Lukather and Richard Page are kind of stuck with their hits, but Todd Rundgren and Gregg Rolie have a lot of material to play with. I had no trouble at all with pictures. The ushers made their presence known but they stayed out of the way to the sides and only came down twice to stop people from filming, not taking pictures.

In Milwaukee, I only saw security stop people from filming. Yet a woman in front of me, in row 2, stayed seated and was filming. Nobody stopped her. Guess you have to know how to do it.
