Paul McCartney has issued his congratulations to Ringo Starr, who is set to be knighted in 2018. The Beatles drummer will be honored for his “service to music” by Queen Elizabeth II and Sir Paul says he’s thrilled for his old comrade to join the ranks. “Huge congrats Sir Ringo!” McCartney posted on social media. “Sir Richard Starkey has a nice ring to it. Best drummer, best pal! X Paul.” Beatles historian Mark Lewishon adds: “I’m delighted for Ringo that he’s received this honour. More than half a century on, what the Beatles did continues to be magnificent, so it feels right that Ringo has joined Paul in having this significant award in his homeland.” Copyright(c) 2018 RTTNews.com.
