Starr vs. McCartney vs. McCartney

All we need is love.  This is taken from the latest FOX411.  Who says ex-flower children are immune to the corruption of wealth and possession?  MUUUUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!!!

McCartney, Ringo: Can't They Work It Out?

 
AP
Ringo Starr
Ringo Starr brought his lumbering All-Starr Band to Radio City Music Hall last night. But Paul McCartney, his only remaining colleague from the Beatles, was nowhere to be found.

This was awkward since earlier in the day, McCartney and his pregnant wife, Heather Mills, were spotted by singer John Waite ("Missing You"), a member of Starr's band, walking on West 54th Street near Rockefeller Center. This makes sense since the office of McCartney's brother-in-law and attorney, John Eastman, is in the famous Rockefeller apartments.

It's unlikely that McCartney was unaware of Ringo's presence in New York yesterday. The sylph-like drummer has been doing a lot of publicity to promote the concert tour and his latest album.

At a press conference in the late afternoon at Radio City, Starr told a group of journalists that he invites McCartney every year to join him with the All-Starr Band. "He's just too busy," Ringo said, rather sadly.

This was the 8th year.

(Radio City, by the way, had better get its act together. The place seems very disorganized and not particularly user friendly!)

Last November I reported that Ringo and Paul were barely on speaking terms at the Concert for George, a memorial to their buddy George Harrison at Royal Albert Hall. The pair timed their appearances at the afterparty so they wouldn't have to be photographed together.

Of course McCartney isn't making many friends within his own family either lately. I am told by insiders that the rift between the ex-Beatle and his children has only widened since his marriage to Mills and the impending birth of their baby.

Stella McCartney, Paul's designing daughter, hasn't done anything to squelch rumors of her distaste for Mills. But I am also told that Paul has angered Stella by not giving her access to many of the possessions of her late mother, Linda. Stella has also expressed an interest in helping market Linda's line of frozen vegetarian dishes which was sold to Heinz in 2001. But so far Paul has apparently blocked her participation, much to Stella's chagrin


:D :D

Apparently neither will love...and that's all you need.

Paul McCartney isnt obligated to appear at Ringo's concerts.

Anyway, McCartney had the highest grossing tour in the US last year ( and most aclaimed), wonder where Ringo places.

Ringo drummed on a few songs on McCartney's last album...I doubt they are enemies.

Beatles rule!
