For many visitors, this performance brought back special memories since this was a location of THE BEATLES TOUR 1964 in Germany.The audience celebrated Ringo (who was simply outstanding and cheerful) and his fantastic band members. Among the audience were Klaus and his wife Christina and their kids Ruscha and Maxi. Before his performance, Ringo had invited the whole Voormann-Family to his dressing room, and Klaus brought a very special gift for his old friend – a self made sculpture: Ringo’s hand with his typical finger position, the peace sign.
