One of the concertgoers told TMZ that he went to the Four Winds Casino management and pressed them as to why the show was a no-go, and was told Ringo was ill but would not go further.<\/p>\n
It is yet to be confirmed if Ringo and the band’s show scheduled for Sunday night in Prior Lake, Minnesota, will go ahead. <\/p>\n
Organizers are hoping to reschedule the New Buffalo show but promoters told fans they could get a refund if it suited better. <\/p>\n
MailOnline has contacted Ringo’s representatives for comment. <\/p>\n

Last month Ringo celebrated his 82nd birthday by hosting his annual Peace and Love party in Beverly Hills.<\/p>\n
Ringo has had lots to celebrate recently, as he and second wife Barbara marked 41 years of marriage on April 27.<\/p>\n
The Scouse icon has three children – son Zak, 56; son Jason, 54; and daughter Lee, 51 – from his decade-long marriage to Maureen Starkey, which ended in 1975.<\/p>\n
The nine-time Grammy winner and his All Starr Band concluded the first leg of their Spring Tour 2022 on June 26 in Clearwater Florida.<\/p>\n
The tour – postponed from 2020 due to the pandemic – will resume in the Fall on September 23 in Bridgeport, Connecticut and end on October 20 in Mexico City.<\/p>\n

Ringo’s birthday bash comes just weeks after he made history as the first member of The Beatles to auction off a collection of NFT digital artwork.<\/span><\/p>\n$1,000 was the starting bid for all five of the Englishman’s pieces – Galaxy One, Galaxy Two, Bandana Man, Starr Art, and Crash – which include short animated videos featuring his drumming.<\/p>\n
‘I only ever wanted to be a drummer yet you never know where a new idea or path will lead you,’ Ringo (born Richard Starkey) said in a statement.<\/p>\n
‘This new technology is so far out it’s inspired me and I loved creating these NFTs combining my art and my music. Who’d have thought I would be spreading peace and love in the metaverse.’ <\/p>\n
A portion of proceeds to benefit The Lotus Foundation, an organization aimed at advancing social welfare in areas like substance abuse, cerebral palsy, brain tumors, cancer, battered woman and their children, homelessness, and needy animals. <\/p>\n
