Topic: Ringo starr

I saw in the news yesterday that someone ( the government ) are talking about saving ringos boyhood flat in england as a national shrine or something of that nature. Anyone here know more about this? I know that they saved john lennons place some years ago.

Re: Ringo starr

I have not heard this but it sounds interesting.

You can see all my video covers on [url]http://www.youtube.com/bensonp1000[/url]
I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

Re: Ringo starr

I thought they already knocked it down.  It's the building on the cover of his "Sentimental Journey" album.

To the best of my knowledge, John Lennon's boyhood home on Menlove Avenue has been preserved.

If you get to visit Liverpool anytime, be sure to take the Beatles tour and see all of these houses, in addition to Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields, The (facsimile) Cavern, etc.
