Slideshow: Ringo Starr and All-Starr Band celebrate a birthday at Jones Beach
Ringo Starr's birthday doesn't happen until next month. But June 22, when the band played at Jones Beach Amphitheater in New York, was the birthday of one of the band's members, the 64th birthday of Todd Rundgren. And the show included a little celebration.
Starr called him "the birthday boy," then wondered if there "was something in that birthday cake?? That's all I'm gonna say," according to Kris Tash, who attended the show.
“A drive that should've taken two hours from New Jersey, took us about 3-1/2," she said. "And when Ringo hit the stage, we found out we weren't the only ones. After 'Matchbox' and 'It Don't Come Easy,' he said, 'I got stuck on the freeway, too!' He was really glad to be back, though, saying, 'Finally, Jones Beach!'"
