Ringo Starr:
* "Boys" (with Green Day) – Ringo on drums, then he goes to the front of the stage for
* "It Don't Come Easy" (slow version with Paul Shaffer Band and Joe Walsh)
* "With A Little Help From My Friends" (with Paul Shaffer Band, Paul McCartney and Joe Walsh)
The other Rock'n'Roll Hall of Fame performers come on stage and join in on backing vocals after a while.
* "I Wanna Be Your Man" - Ringo sings half the song front stage and then goes behind the drums for the instrumental break, Paul takes on the lead vocals for the last verse.
And that was that. I thought the show was very good, the producers rearranged the order of proceedings and it flowed well. The only thing I missed was when Paul and Ringo took that deep Beatles bow before they left the stage at the end.
