The David Lynch Foundation Presents...

Last night I was asked to cover the David Lynch Foundation Benefit Gala at Lincoln Center for my friend Jill Nannery at the TASC Group. The evening was hosted by ABC's George Stephanopoulos and guests included, Liv Tyler, Dr. Mehmet Oz, and Jerry Seinfeld amongst others. The benefit was held as a means to raise funds for free meditation instruction for inner city kids, veterans, low income families and abused women and girls. Proceeds from the event will go toward teaching the Transcendental Meditation technique to thousands. Since 2005, the David Lynch Foundation has provided scholarships to more than 250,000 at-risk adults and children to meditate. For more information about this organization or to support a great cause, you can go to www.davidlynchfoundation.org.

The evening was topped off with a soothing performance featuring Jazz greats, Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Esperanza Spalding and Corinne Bailey Rae. Here are a few of my outtakes from the evening...
