More Live 8 related angst now, as Ringo Starr has expressed his anger and disappointment that Paul McCartney did not invite him to perform with him at the big event. As you all know, McCartney opened the concert with 'Sgt Pepper', backed by U2, and Ringo is a bit mad he wasn't asked to play the drums. Starr told "I was never asked to do it, he didn't ask me. It's too late now - it's disappointing. But I would have only done it if I'd been able to wear my Sgt Pepper suit."
Hmmm. Perhaps Macca saw that previously reported interview on Access Hollywood in which Ringo said he had no plans to ever play with McCartney again. Although to be fair, he did say 'tour together', not 'play together'.
