Last night, Ringo Starr celebrated his 80th birthday with a star-studded virtual concert.
Special guests included Joe Walsh, Sheryl Crow, Dave Grohl, and Sheila E, who covered various Beatles classics.
The special also included some archival footage including an epic jam session with Paul McCartney on “Helter Skelter”.
Most importantly, the show raised money for multiple charities including Musicares and Black Lives Matter Global Network.
