Ringo Starr has postponed the remainder of the summer tour dates that he and his All-Starr band were scheduled for, due to Covid. 

Two of the band members wound up getting Covid. First, keyboardist Edgar Winter got it, but the band tried to get through without him, initially. Then, however, guitarist Steve Lukather tested positive for Covid, and that triggered the delay of the remaining summer tour dates.

Those dates have tentatively been postponed until September.
