Found out in the AM that he was playing a benefit in the next town over at a small venue. My wife and I saw PP&M a few times, probably 20-25ish years ago the last time, so this was a nice surprise. I was able to get tix and got there early enough to find nice spot up close as it was general admission. It was kind of a bitter sweet time, as Peter seemed somewhat frail being 81. Honestly, where does the time go? His hands shook, his voice was weak, but the man still put on a good show playing and communing for about 1-1/2 hours.
Obviously with many gray haired fans in the audience he had us singing to most of the songs, where he would often then take on one of the old PP&M signature harmony lines. He still has as great sense of humor and a message of peace, love and brotherhood that is so germane to the PP&M legacy. In addition to my own I saw many eyes tearing up on songs like Where have all the flowers gone, and Puff (probably my first childhood memory of music.) God bless them old hippy singer songwriters for all the great memories.
