Ringo Starr won’t be part of a Beatles reunion involving children of George Harrison and John Lennon
For some time, there’s been a rumor floating around of a possible reformulation of the Beatles, with surviving members Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr being joined by Dhani Harrison and Julian Lennon — sons of the late George Harrison and John Lennon. Starr has nixed his own involvement in any such reunion under his old band’s name, though he says he’d happily work with McCartney again.“The door is open that Paul and I might play together, but it is not like a reunion,” Starr says, as he continues to meet with the media to talk about his new release, Ringo 2012. “It is not going to be the Beatles, you know? They have those crazy ideas that maybe we could use their children. It is never going to happen.”Last summer, Julian Lennon expressed a similar reluctance to performing together as “the Beatles”: “There will NEVER be a Beatles reunion, because two of the members of the band have since passed … and NO ONE could, or should try to replace them,” Lennon wrote on his Facebook page in July.
