Ringo Starr and His All-Starr Band performed at the Wolf Trap in Vienna,
Virginia
(outside of Washington, D.C.) on Monday, July 17.

Songwriter Jack Tempchin opened. He played electric rhythm guitar and
sang songs that he wrote or co-wrote:

You Belong to the City

With A Little Help From My Friends

Random notes: Ringo was a great showman and host. John Entwistle played
great bass, interacted well with Zak Starkey, but seemed bored. Zak
Starkey is a good drummer, but doesn't have much stage presence. Mark
Farner was upbeat, always smiling, and very energetic. He had crosses on
both of his guitars. Billy Preston was energetic, danced, and really
worked up a sweat during "Takin' Care of Business."
