Re: Ringo Starr No Longer Accepting Fan Mail
You know - this is just too sad. I always liked Ringo, but this is just stupid. I'm sure Ringo must get a fair amount of fan mail - after all, he was a member of what is largely considered to be the greatest band of all time.
But I don't care who you are - entertainers depend on their fans for their livlihood, and should be immensely respectful of them, IMHO. Of course, I'm sure Ringo has more money than he will ever need, but that is not the point. I totally agree with those of you who said how disrespectful of his fans that this is. If this is how he feels, I guess I can sort of understand that this can get tiresome. After all, he is human. However, he could have chosen to keep his mouth shut instead of doling out an ungrateful, unappreciative slap in the face to all of those people who have admired him and made him a very wealthy man. I don't know if sending hate mail is the answer since it will apparently just end up in the trash, but I hope his fans figure out a way to return the favor to him.

Re: Ringo Starr No Longer Accepting Fan Mail
Folks... as we're on the subject....I've bought Glenn a birthday card. Now I'd like you all to persuade me to send it and I would like you to give me some ideas for an accompanying letter. I know that I won't receive a reply. I feel that I have to do this for the BIG 6 -0 (in 1998 when he turned 50 the band was inactive and it wasn't a big deal at the time for me, as I'd just had my daughter).
I know you'll say to me 'only you can decide what to write' and 'only you can express to Glenn how you feel about his music' (NB I said MUSIC) but this seems important. I don't want to lose my nerve. If you would rather PM me than discuss it here feel free. If you think I shouldn't send it, please say so. Thanks.

Without a doubt I think you should send it FP! I'll have to get back to you on ideas of what to say, but I think it's a great idea!
