Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band performed at the Grugahalle in Essen, Germany, on 1 September 1998.
It was the 14th show of the fourth All-Starr Band’s European tour, which lasted for 17 dates in August and September 1998.
The Beatles had performed two shows at the Grugahalle on 25 June 1966.
The first gig in Germany was in the Grugahalle in Essen a place I played in during the 80s with the Police and Graham Parker for Rockpalast, and it was a blast to be there again. The gig was really good as we were able to play our full set which lasts for about 2 hrs 30 and the audience was very real and very receptive. German crowds are among the best anywhere and it is always fun to play there.
