Ringo Starr live at the Troubadour for Sirius XM Town Hall session

Ringo Starr held court Monday at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, and even if it was an invitation-only affair for the taping of one of Sirius XM satellite radio’s Town Hall sessions, it offered a rare chance to witness a Beatle in a club setting.Starr bantered with a pair of co-hosts, first with comedian and fellow Brit Russell Brand, then with producer Don Was. Both helped field questions for the 71-year-old musician from members of the invitation-only audience, some of whom flew in from as far away as New Jersey.Some came seeking words of wisdom, as in the case of a dad who asked Starr what advice he’d give the man’s young son. “What I’ve always tried to do,” Starr said, “is not tell other people what to do. I just do what I do.”
