Los Angeles, Nov 5 (Ians) The Eagles rocker Joe Walsh is enjoying his days with a peaceful, easy feeling as he has a renewed focus on giving back, a happy marriage and a long-awaited Eagles reunion tour.
Though the rocker, known for his shredding guitar chops and wry sense of humour, has been known for his work in various lineups over the years none make him prouder than the one he assembles each year for VetsAid, his annual veterans benefit concert, reports People magazine.
“California has the biggest homeless vet population—what’s up with that? A homeless vet? I can’t do the math on that (sic),” he told People. “I thought, ‘You know what?

The Beatles drummer Ringo Starr, as is his custom, took the occasion of his 83rd birthday to lead local friends in a chant of “peace and love” in a Beverly Hills park, while a worldwide audience of streaming Beatles fans looked on, admiring his youthful looks and demeanour and wondering if there’s any way to have what he’s having.
Brother-in-law Joe Walsh joined him for the event, as did their respective wives, sisters Barbara and Marjorie Bach, reports Variety. By coincidence, both Starr and Walsh have been a part of headline news stories in recent days — the former because of a forthcoming Beatles single, the latter because of the announcement of an Eagles farewell tour.
The two stars talked with press about those headlines, among other things, before the late-morning party got underway in earnest.

It was a foggy autumn night in New York’s Rainbow Room when Joe Walsh took center stage — no guitar in sight. So he addressed the elephant in the room: “I’m Joe, and I’m an alcoholic.” It’s a half-joke, meant to set the audience at ease while gently reminding the tables of suits and sequined dresses that addiction is not some distant, dark memory; but on the contrary it’s a specter that hangs over fifty million Americans. Even the ones who sell out Madison Square Garden.

Nashville, Tenn. -- The 1960s mop top is gone, but Ringo Starr is still flashing a peace sign.
The former Beatle marked his 72nd birthday in Nashville Saturday by holding a "peace and love" moment at noon. He asked people worldwide to do the same at 12 o'clock in their time zones.
The idea came to him in 2008 when an interviewer asked him what he wanted for his birthday. Since then, he has held events each year in cities such as New York, Chicago and Hamburg, Germany.
"It's sort of catching on more and more, the more we do," Starr said before the festivities. "We got lots of blogs from Japan and China and all over the world saying, `We did peace and love.' So it's working."
Hundreds of fans joined Starr at Hard Rock Café, shouting "peace and love" at the magic hour and holding two fingers in the air.
