Peace and love,†he summarized. And Performer of the Year winner Blake Mitchell went even heavier on the peace and love, expressing gratitude for the honor and thanking the event organizer, publicist Davyd Dixon.About midway through the show came the presentation by Men.com performer Matthew Camp of a Lifetime Achievement award to Durk Dehner, the man behind of the Tom of Finland Foundation.
