Ringo says he won't write memoirs

Beatles legend Ringo Starr refuses to write an autobiography, insisting publishers would only be interested in the book if it included stories about the late John Lennon. He says, "I could do 12 volumes about my life before I ever got into the band. I have more life than that but they only want to know about that one." [More...]

Oh Ringo.
I would love to know about your life. I can read about the
other three anytime. Your life has always been sort of a mystery. Please, won't you please change your mind? If not for the fans, for your children and grandchildren.

This is pretty dang funny considering the first song on his new album mentions John Lennon not at all off-handedly! XD

You're right Ringo, there's a phrase I once heard that rings true (pun intended); Never meet your idols. The same goes for reading about them. I like The Beatles as a group & some solo material from all four but could care less about how many women, drugs & alcohol were consumed in the process while seeking or acquiring fame. Kind of wish I didn't know what I do, really. Then again, it's the ugly truth that makes you realize you have to separate the music from sheer idolotry.
