“Peace and Love” For Ringo at Abbey Road on his Birthday Ringo Starr was recently asked by Access Hollywood what he hoped to receive for his upcoming birthday (July 7th). Ringo's answer was unconventional, he said, "just more Peace & Love." Then he expanded his wish further, "it would be really cool if everyone, everywhere, wherever they are, at noon on July 7 make the peace sign and say "Peace & Love." Ringo and Beatles fans will be gathering all over the world to say ‘Peace and Love’ and to wish Ringo a happy birthday. In England the meeting point chosen was outside Abbey Road Studios in London. The event will be organised by Richard Porter, Beatles tour guide and owner of the Beatles Coffee Shop in St John’s Wood. Richard says ‘I think this is a great way of celebrating Ringo’s birthday. Even though wanting ‘peace and love’ may seem old-fashioned nowadays, in this troubled world we need it more than ever.’ Abbey Road Studios is the perfect meeting point in London for the occasion. Richard says ‘The Beatles recorded nearly all their songs at Abbey Road and it is the most famous Beatles location in London. It is also where The Beatles recorded ‘All You Need is Love’ in front of a worldwide TV audience of 400 million people in 1967. Fans are asked to gather at the Beatles Coffee Shop, St John’s Wood Underground Station at 11.30am or outside Abbey Road Studios at 11.45am.http://www.beatlesinlondon.com
