I send a couple of more photos from the concert. I found these in another newspaper. Also here I read that the band did not sound very tight, although they had an authentic sound.

Appearantly The British Blues Masters were booked for the festival long ago, but Peter joined the group only a week before the festival (wich I think was theit first gig with Peter). Maybe that explains why Peter was a bit confused according to the newspaper. The band announced that they would be touring over the world with members to come and go.

This newspaper also had what I would consider sad news. When it was set that Peter would come to the festival, his lawyer contacted the leaders of the festival. He asked if they could get Peter a guitar for the concert. Of course they could, but why?? Because Peter didn't own a guitar himself anymore!!!

I fear this has something too do with contracts, court case, legal issues, and all that sh*t! It makes me mad when I hear about it! The guy had about 100 guitars a few months ago!!

The red Gibson guitar on the photos is the one the festival gave him. There is also a photo with him and Mayall signing a guitar together. That is a more happy story. Peter didn't want to sign it until Mayall was present, and Mayall refused to sign until Peter was finished with the sound check. It was something they had planned to do together. Peter DOES look good at these pictures after all.
