Ringo Starr has again pushed back his upcoming summer tour with the All Starr Band after two of the band’s members contracted COVID-19.
“We are so sorry to let the fans down. It’s been wonderful to be back out on the road and we have been having such a great time playing for you all. But as we all know, Covid is still here and despite being careful these things happen,” the former Beatles drummer said Saturday in a statement shared on his website. “I want to thank the fans for their patience, I send you all peace and love, and we can’t wait to be back in the Fall.”
The statement came hours before the band was set to play in Easton, Pennsylvania. Keyboardist Edgar Winter and guitarist Steve Lukather tested positive for COVID-19. The shows were initially planned for 2020 but had been postponed once before due to the pandemic.
