Hello to all!
This thing is back up again..wheesh!..Frustrating how many times this goes down..Hopefully the new site we’ll be ready as soon as JP can find some new help around his office….
Had fun with the show in DENVER, then went back to HASHVILLE for a bit..We rehearsed some new-old up tempo pC songs and I hope to do them at the next show in SANDY UT. on the 10th..
I signed on to do another FOSTER and FRIENDS tour in ASIA in the last half of OCTOBER..I’ll fill you in on the details as soon as they finalize the whole shebang….Ciao,pC

Hello to all!
BOSTON was unbelievable last week..Great show and a beautiful city to boot…Thanks to everyone who was at the show…On to DENVER this weekend…pC

07/08/10
Once again, thanks to everyone in BUENOS AIRES and CORDOBA, ARGENTINA, SANTIAGO, CHILE and PANAMA CITY, PANAMA for making my shows so memorable….. We traveled to LOGAN, UT from SOUTH AMERICA for another great show on July1st..WOW!, what a place!(I promise I won’t tell everyone about how beautiful it is up there)..Thanks again to everyone involved, especially CRAIG JESSOP and his FESTIVAL Orchestra and Chorus, for making it a wonderful welcome back to the States show… Early the next morning, we all, and I mean we ALL, including CRAIG and his entire ensemble, drove to SUN VALLEY, ID. for our show that night, July 2nd….It was surreal driving back and forth for sound check and gig but it was an awesome evening and show…. The BAD DADDIES as usual have been outstanding throughout this tour and we are rested up and looking forward to COLUMBUS, OHIO this coming Saturday night…See ya, pC

What a great audience in PANAMA CITY!..The show was fabulous!.Once we were on stage, the lousy experience at the “Hotel El Panama” was forgotten…Unfortunately, we had to go back after the show and try to sleep for 3 or so hours..EEEKKK!..Up at 4am for the long slog back to the States thru Atlanta then here to SALT LAKE CITY..When I opened my bag in SLC late last night, NIGHTMARE!, everything reeked with the horrible smell of Hotel El Panama…Ah, nothing like a parting gift.. Moving on, I’d like to thank the people of PANAMA who were at the show..You were wonderful, as were the people of ARGENTINA and CHILE…Thank you all and I hope to return one day… Tonight I’m here in LOGAN, UTAH, to rehearse with the AMERICAN FESTIVAL ORCHESTRA and CHORUS for our shows tomorrow night here and SUN VALLEY, IDAHO on Friday night…I’ll let you know how everything goes….See ya, pC

06/28/10
OK, it’s off to the gig and I hope it’s better than the last 24hrs..However, we have to get up at 4am to catch our plane back to the States..Departing Panama from one long security check point and customs then arriving in another long security and customs in the States ..Isn’t this a glamorous life?…pC

06/28/10
The luggage and equipment has just arrived!..For now at least, things are as back on track as possible..This hotel is still a problemo but at least my neighbors are friendly as I can hear them talking and shouting thru the walls each time Brazil scores in the World Cup..When Brazil does score, explosions go off around the area and you really get the feeling of World Cup..Either that or we’re right in the middle of some sort of coup…I’ll let you know either way…pC

06/28/10
Sitting here in PANAMA in a less than grand hotel..As a matter of fact, it’s sort of a dive an I’m very depressed…Actually we are all depressed and po’d for that matter since we still don’t have our luggage from our Argentina to Peru to Panama flights all day yesterday..eeek!..What WILL I do without my meds?..Just kidding!..no I’m not…yes I am! No guitars,no clothes, no toiletries, no binky and no teddy, what are the stranded BAD DADDIES and yours truly to do?…Stay tuned because it might get interesting.. Now if I can just balance on this chair and throw this rope over the closet hanger pole….. JUST KIDDING!…Ciao..Pedro

06/23/10
What a great show last night in BUENOS AIRES!..With a win in the World Cup you can imagine how wild it was here..We stayed right across from the Obelisk which is an important monument and a gathering place for the city.. The crowd partying there after the win was an awesome show from my room and it carried over to the show later..The show was exciting to say the least so it’s CETERA 1/ ARGENTINA 1… Just arrive in SANTIAGO, CHILE for a TV show tonight and the show tomorrow night…I’ll keep you posted and let’s hope CHILE wins it’s match because the show will be wild again….Ciao, pC

06/05/10
Hello Folks!
OK, here we go..I’ve had rotator cuff surgery on my right shoulder and therefore have been a bit under the radar lately..With the new site almost ready to go online along with the upcoming dates, it will be hectic but I think I can handle it….haha
South America should be fun with the slight change that Venezuela has been canceled and a second show has been added in Argentina…I finish that tour with a homestand show in Sun Valley..This will be my first appearance for my real home peeps up here so of course it will be an exciting evening…
Igoknow as it’s a pain typing one handed..Ciao, p

04/20/10
Hello folks!…
Yes folks, I’m back, but with an admission I need to get out…..I was burned out and I just got back from treatment at the web site, twitter, email and whatever else is presumed needed to keep your name in the public eye facility…Why the only thing I’m missing is a reality TV show about my addiction…yukyuk…
I did and I do get tired of always trying to keep up with these things so I’ll going to back off a bit..I am going back on the road for some very interesting gigs this year so take a peek over on the tour date part of this very high tec site and I’ll be talking soon with more but limited chat…Ciao,pC

02/13/10
Hello to all…
First off, let me thank all of you who sent Christmas presents, wishes and what have you..I really appreciate it..
I’ll have some new gig info coming up soon as we are now starting to book the new year so look for that within the next few weeks….
It’s taken until now to sort and sift through the autograph picture requests and I’ve just sent a new batch off so look for yours soon…NOT SO FAST YOU OUT THERE ….You did it wrong!
Once again I’m getting frustrated with people not following my simple requests in how to obtain one…It takes me hours to go through even a small amount of requests and those who get it right make it easy for me…Unfortunately, only 2 in five get it right, and the time I waste opening the and dumping the others makes me want to forget this whole thing…BUT
I am going to write 1 more set of simple easy rules and put it in the request for an autograph section in hopes of clarifying it one mo time…Comprende?..yikes!..pC

12/23/09
As I’ve said before, Japan was super..Thanks to everyone for making it the most memorable trip I’ve ever had in your country…Special thanks to MISAKI IGARASHI-AKIKO NASHIMORA-NORIKO CHINO-YOKO OYAGI-SAORI FAJITA-REIKO TAKEUCHI-SKIKO to name a few and of course the staff at the COTTON CLUB who made it a piece of cake….Let’s do it again…pC

12/17/09
WOW is all I can say about this past week in Japan..Just finished our shows at the COTTON CLUB in TOKYO and it was fabulous to say the least..The people were nothing short of tremendous…We all had a blast at every show..We even had lunch today at the American Embassy with the Ambassador and his very gracious wife…Big timin’ ya huh?..I will write more when I get back to the USA tomorrow but for now, all I can say is…WE WANNA COME BACK HERE..Wakari masuka?…I thought so…Oyasumi nasai yall…pC

11/05/09
Just finished doing a short little song for The Tim and Eric Awesome Show..It’s on the cartoon network and part of Adult Swim…It will be a pretty funny bit when it comes on in the fall..Something a little different for me…Show here in LA tomorrow night then it’s off to San Jose..pC

10/30/09
YUCKSSSS!.It’s so frustrating to want to post on this page or tweet or do anything here on the road.I just got on this am after a few days of not being able to connect while everyone else is chatting and posting away….I love to blab and when I want to and I can’t it’s very FRUSTRATING…Right now I don’t want to anymore…bye…pC

10/27/09
Whew!..A fast trip to 4 cities so far and it’s been better than I thought it would be by a mile..Everyone is so much fun to work with it’s been, as I say way too often, AWESOME..heehee..A few nights off here in Nashville than off to Atlanta for the show on Wed…pC

09/27/09
Great Show In Louisville!
Thanks to all….see pC speaks

09/02/09
OK!……Listen up!..Pay attention those of you who don’t….
I’ve just sent a fresh batch of autographed pics out…Thanks again to those very smart beautiful people who made the effort to get it right, for ye shall receive your newly minted autographed picture….
There were still a few of you without proper postage/no name etc, but it’s getting better…
BUT, despite my many warnings, some people, who obviously think they’re better than the rest of you, keep sending me other stuff to sign even though I’ve asked them not to many many times…..The other nonsense not only clogs up the works, it makes keeps me from promptly returning autographs to those lovely charming people who get it right…..NO MAS! NO BUENO!..and..NO MORE bunky!…
From this day forward, ANYTHING I get sent to autograph, other than the than the picture I have for this purpose (click the AUTOGRAPH icon on this site for simple instructions), will be destroyed in the newly purchased “GOLDEN THREAD” idiot file/trash compactor/coffee maker…“But wait,there’s more”…This time I’m not kidding!…..GottagoSeeya…pC

You heard it here first!.That’s right NIPPON yawl!.I’ve just signed on to play a small intimate club (THE COTTON CLUB) for 6 shows on December 13-15-17…Since I haven’t been there in ages, I thought it would be super fun to bring The Bad Daddies over…Not sure if I’ll do the acoustic version or the electric show but either way it will be awesome….I’ll you know when more details are available..hee he..pC

08/24/09
Yo Yo Yo,
Just finished 2 “New Electric Bad Daddy” dates outside of Atlanta..With the latest edition of Joe Chemay on bass, moving Dan Needham up to the drum slot and the return of Tony Harrell on organ added to the Old New Bad Daddies acoustic band, Bruce Gaitsch, Boh Cooper, Gene Miller, Kim Keyes give me what I feel is the best band I’ve ever worked with…We were smokin’ for the last 2 nights and it was a joy to be up there with this configuration…Thanks again to Linda pCfC for setting up the fan clubber thing and special thanks to all who showed up…Maybe I should do more of these NEBD shows eh?…Oh yeah!…pC
I’ll get the pics up on this site when I can…

08/11/09
Hello to everyone!
I’ll have some exciting new tour dates coming to you shortly…But first…
The new autographed pictures have been signed sealed and sent out this past week..If you don’t receive yours within the next 2 weeks then you did something wrong (no address-no envelope-etc etc)..I know you’re probably tired of this and believe me, I AM, so follow the instructions and try again..
Getting ready to head to Nashville this Friday…It’s good to start up again and rehearsals are planned with the Bad Daddies Electric Band for the upcoming Atlanta shows..We always manage to be as goofy as possible during rehearsals to help ease the boredom of rehashing old tunes..
There’s some important new show news coming up that I can’t wait to tell you about..I put this last just to see if anyone actually reads this..haha..I’ll tell you about the new stuff probably within a week or two just as soon as we hammer out the gorey details!…pC

08/05/09
A special hello to the Lewis Family in Sydney, Australia…Thanks for your letter as I too was upset with the cancelation of the Australian tour..The actual fact was that in the end, the promoters couldn’t meet their obligations in time..I couldn’t commit to bringing my whole band over without the proper funding being in place…Though I gave them ample time, and in fact even suggested a benefit concert in Sydney for the fire victims, they failed to get it together..In the end I just didn’t trust the whole situation..Hopefully next time I’ll hook up with a more reputable agency and come over….Thanks again,Peter

Since people are asking, I’ll tell my very brief MJ story.
Back in the Late 80’s, my then lawyer, John Branca, who by the way was a great guy and represented many show biz people, was getting married..He invited me to the wedding at his house in BH for a 2pm ceremony…Of course being me, I showed up exactly at 2 and was greeted by a half dressed groom who was still rushing around trying to coordinate the usual last minute arrangements…
He showed me in and it looked like I was the first one there..He asked if I would like to hang downstairs in his media room until everyone arrived…As I followed him down he casually mentioned that Micheal had come early and was down there as well…Sure enough, as we walked in, there was MJ playing a pinball game..After a brief introduction, John begged off and there we were, MJ and PC all alone playing pinball…
For about 15 minutes we chatted casually about the game we were playing, the music we were making and the wedding about to happen upstairs…That’s it, normal chatty stuff without any press or any other people around for that matter to muck it up…
I guess my point is that throughout the years you get a chance to interact with others in your line of work and from all the press you always read about them you never know which one you’re going to meet….This was before he seemed to go somewhere else but to me and at that time, he was calm,kind, gentle and a fun hang for a few brief moments…
I wish him the peace he never seemed to have found in this life…pC

06/03/09
Tweetertweeter this is Peter…Well here’s one person who never thought he’d be a tweet’n…I sort of got talked into it by JP who said it was easy peasy…It’s not been a snap and I’m learning as I go as I’m finding out many of you are as well…I’m doing the remotes on an old cell phone without a proper key pad so there’s been many errors but I’ll get it right and probably buy a new phone soon….In the meantime, until something really exciting happens I hope it’s not too boring….As you know, I’m a fairly simple person so there won’t be very many Paris Hilton Brittany Spears Spencer Pratt eeek red carpet moments but you never know…If anything weird ever goes down in my life you will be the first to know…In the meantime, This traveling salesman goes to a farmhouse….never mind….pC

Hello to all!
Before I get into the autograph picture issue, I like to thank my many friends abroad for the Christmas gifts, cards and greetings.I really appreciate knowing and hearing from you all….
I like to especially thank…SUE DICKINSON (sorry but there was no address)for the beautiful painting of my very own face….Awesome Indeed!
Special hello to TOM and WENDY CRANFIELD of AUSTRALIA for the great Cd and letter….
Thank you again AKIKO NASHIMOTO of JAPAN….
And MARIT JOHANNE RYGGE of NORWAY….

And now for the BAD news….
I really appreciate the many requests I get for autographed pictures from abroad and I try to send out as many as possible…HOWEVER…Please follow the rules set forth on this site….Far to many of you have not included a return envelope, return address, unreadable handwriting etc..As in the USA, I’ve had to simplify your requests so that I can get out as many as possible….From here on, I will ONLY SIGN and RETURN the picture which I have made for this purpose…Do not send cards, old albums,CD’s pictures or anything else to sign…It slows down the process and you probably will not get them back…Sorry, but I’m trying to do what’s best for us all…Cheers!, pC
