Paul McCartney and Ringo Star reunited onstage at the Radio City Music Hall for the first time in almost seven years on Saturday night.

The two surviving Beatles performed to help raise money for the David Lynch Foundation’s "Change Begins Within" benefit, which aimed to raise money in order to teach transcendental meditation techniques to one million children around the world. The Beatles themselves have used those same techniques.

During McCartney’s lengthy solo set he called Ringo to the stage saying:

"At this point we would like to introduce somebody to you who you know, you’ve heard his name. He’s going to come out here and play you a little song this joyful night. Ladies and gentlemen, Billy Shears!"

As it is, "Shears," Starr’s Sgt. Pepper pseudonym, and McCartney last played together in November 2002, at London’s Concert for George held in the wake of George Harrison’s death.

Ringo Starr said in a video on his web site:

"Please do not send fan mail to any address you have. Nothing will be signed after the 20th of October. If that is the date on the envelope, it’s gonna be tossed. I’m warning you with peace and love I have too much to do… No more fan mail and no objects to be signed. Nothing."

Do people really send him that much stuff to sign? It must be a big hassle mailing it back to people.

Fans in New York last night tried to get an autograph from Ringo Starr, but like most celebrities these days he just ignored them, and pushed his way through the crowd. Celebrities should never forget they have what they have because of fans. Wouldn’t it be amazing if Ringo died tomorrow, and not one fan showed up after seeing this video?
