Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band live: Salle Des Etoiles, Monte Carlo

Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band performed at the Salle Des Etoiles Sporting Club in Monte Carlo, Monaco, on 29 August 1998.

It was the 13th show of the fourth All-Starr Band’s European tour, which lasted for 18 dates in August and September 1998, and the second of three consecutive nights in Monaco.

Starr returned to the Salle Des Etoiles on 6 July 2018.

And so we arrived (eventually) in the very fleshpot of Europe, the tax haven Monaco. The three gigs here are among the strangest I have ever had playing as we are for billionaires in a sort of lounge. I have to play so quietly in front of these old fogeys and you just can’t do ‘White Room’ under these conditions. As far as I can see most of Monte Carlo is covered in poodle crap! Weird. Sorry if I sound grumpy but I can’t wait to get to Germany where we play some real concerts in front of real people!
