Ringo Starr receives a Lifetime Of Peace And Love Award

About

Ringo Starr received a “Lifetime Of Peace And Love Award” at a David Lynch Foundation event in Los Angeles. Paul McCartney sent a video tribute.

From Rolling Stone, January 21, 2014:

For his 68th birthday last night, director David Lynch threw a party for Ringo Starr. More precisely, the David Lynch Foundation for Consciousness-Based Education and World Peace gave Starr the not-made-up-at-all “Lifetime of Peace and Love Award.” Which meant that Lynch’s foundation wanted to honor the peace-loving Starr as a pioneer of transcendental meditation and promote their own good works in teaching meditation to school children and military veterans. […] Paul McCartney and Yoko Ono sent videos in which they declared their Ringo-love, while Lynch gave a short speech that began “In all the galaxies of peace and love, Ringo is a giant star” and ended with “Hurray for Ringo!”
