McCartney Starr suggested for Lynch Foundation Saturday night's benefit Concert for the "David Lynch Foundation" was billed as Paul McCartney & Friends Change Begins Within. McCartney may not have shown up until nearly three hours into the show, but the message of change — specifically, through meditation — was a constant throughout the evening.
The celebrated filmmaker, whose credits include twisted classics such as Eraserhead and Blue Velvet, welcomed the sold-out crowd at Radio City Music Hall by extolling the benefits of transcendental meditation. His foundation focuses on providing at-risk young people access to the practice; the concert raised an estimated $3 million

Thanks for this brief article on the McCartney concert in aid of the david Lynch Foundation. I was lucky enough to be in the audience, and it was a brilliant night. The atmosphere was electric, and McCartney played for over an hour. All the musicians that performed were great, and i especially like the Seinfield routine in which he told everyone he had been doing Transcendental Meditation for over 30 years. And Howard Stern also made an appearance to support the goal of the event - to raise funds to teach TM to 1 million children. What a worthy cause and what a great event. Well done David Lynch!
