Yeah...If anyone has any new info.
Otherwise he seems to have retired, momentarily, at least.
Hope he doesn't retire for 10-11 years, like the last time.

Question

Hello from Italy!

Really no great news on Peter right now.... but after 10 months, I think I'm now allowed to imform all of you the his recent dispute was settled out of Courte last December 2005.

Well, we know that he lost lots of weight and seems to enjoy his life in Sweden and that he has a nice woman beside him, which is good.....

The music?.....What can I say....I really hope Peter enjoys the rest of his life, but does so outside the music businnes......

Speak to you soon...

Mario.

thanks for the news mario. very good that the case was settled. i understand that you know some of the details . now that it has been settled i guess the ledge discussion ban (Peter Green vs. Nigel Watson ... Please read. posted 7/21/05) is off?

perhaps you can fill us in on some of what happened? or does the terms of the settlement exclude that possibility?

i had hoped that once the case was settled that pete would be free to resume his career but your wish that peter stays outside the music business suggests that you think that would be a bad idea. can you explain what you mean exactly?

sorry for so many questions! what i would most like to know is that pete is well and if he still plays

Yes, thanks Mario!
But the same thing puzzles me: Why do you wish that Peter should spend the rest of his life outside the music business?

I don't want to speak for Mario, but I wouldn't necessarily disagree. Think of everything the man has been through. Now, think of how much of that can be attributed to the music business. It was called "Show Biz Blues" for a reason! I'd much rather the man never play a guitar again if that meant he could spend the rest of his life in peace. Sure, I'd love to have him recording and touring, just as any fan would. But there comes a time when I have to put that aside and ask what's best for Peter. If being retired, or semi-retired, is what's best for him, then so be it.

I don't know any more details about the settlement, only that it was good for Peter and that Peter's lawyers were very happy with it.....

Please, don't get me wrong.....as a fan, of course I'm up to hear the next Peter Green's cd, but after all that evil surrounding the courte case and surrounding the last months of the Splinter Group, then I can't see Peter involved with the music businnes anymore;it happened with Fleetwood Mac, it happened with Kolors and it happened with Splinter Group; Peter's tormented soul does not need this!

Anyway it would be great to get some more and fresh news by Joe Green.

Stay happy and green!

Mario.
