I was lucky enough to be present when Dave Grohl spoke about Ringo Starr at The Arclight Theatre in Hollywood, California on October 23, 2013.
Check out this iPhone video I recorded of Grohl speaking about the influence of The Beatles as a band and of Ringo Starr’s influence on his own drumming for Nirvana and Foo Fighters.
“My introduction into music was The Beatles” – Dave Grohl
It’s a great straight from the heart unscripted question and answer about Ringo…
Note: Ringo is seated in the front row to the right
The occasion was the release of Ringo’s Photograph Portfolio and Limited Edition Book.
A slighty better produced video was made in 2015 for Ringo Starr’s induction into the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame. Ringo was no joke!!!
