I just think it's cruel of North Carolina to put a big sign saying, "You're different, we don't want you, you'll do this." Nobody has done this. How hard is that? They're like three or four in this dilemma. There are three year olds who are feeling, they don't want to be Bobby, they want to be Betty. Now it's great because it's coming to the fore. They need to be the other way and they know that.

We've all got a soul, and these kids are born with a body that doesn't belong to their being. Who is it hurting? Nobody! It's enough to go through transitioning since that's how they were born! Everybody has been touched by God. People have said this before well you'd go to jail for being gay in America or England, then you could be gay but you couldn't get married.

PBS did a great show on these teenagers it's hard enough transitioning and then you want to make a big sign on it. I know two sets of parents whose children are going through this. RS: I just think it's outrageous that people are still putting signs up and pointing out the differences of these kids. I love to play, and that's why I'm still touring, and that's why I'm still in a band It's pretty difficult for a drummer to go out just with his drums. I loved The Beatles front line and then I was in the band. I got to Rory a few bands later and that was a great band, and then I got to The Beatles. There were hundreds of bands in Liverpool, and I just kept moving up. Skiffle was very big in England and certainly in Liverpool. I just started playing drums with him, and then my friend Roy played bass, and thanks to Lonnie Donegan, we were playing skiffle. The first band I was in, Eddie Clayton was my neighbor and he worked in the same factory as I did, he was one of those guys who could really play. Then I got my first kit and in those days, if you had the instrument, you were in the band because we were all just starting out and learning. I came out walking around Liverpool looking in music shops, I only ever looked at the drums, and I fell for them. RS: It satisfies the reason I started doing this, the dream, when I was thirteen in hospital, to play drums. That's another good thing you can do when you know each other. Then a couple of weeks later, he sent me the finished product and it was great. So I got as far as I could get and then I gave the track and all my notes to Todd and he went away. Moonlight,'" and then I started writing other Beatles titles-half of them I named, anyway. I had a track I had already done-I'm working in reverse, I get the tracks and then write the songs-and I thought, "It would be cool to use the words 'Lovers Under Mr. It's a lot of years waiting to achieve this. I just called everyone to my room and said, "Let's write this song." So that's what we did, and then we got back to L.A. We had a jam going that was really cool and we had some sort of idea of a melody-just everybody shouting while we were jamming. More images of Ringo spreading peace and love in the 90210 today… : It has! I've tried with every band to write songs and record, and last year was the first time we achieved it. “Even Joe Walsh got out of bed for it,” he joked. He carried on the tradition today in front of his sculpture in Beverly Hills as he turned 81 years old.
