Dec 6, 2011 After 40 years, Silverhead is getting back together to do a couple of shows in Tokyo next April. It’s hard to believe that after all this time, all it took was a few of phone calls. Michael, Rod and Nigel have gotten together at Rookie’s place near L.A. to start things rolling. Robbie and I will be joining them in Tokyo for rehearsals before the show.   It’s going to be great to see the guys and rock out again.  I feel like a kid thinking about it and I’m finding it hard to wait. Tetsuya Nakatani of Vinyl Records is putting on two shows at the Shimokitazawa Garden on April 20 & 21. You can get all the details on our Official FaceBook Page. Stop by, Like the page, say hi, share your memories, pics, ask questions....See you there!!! And stop by my gallery page, I’ve got some Silverhead pics there too.

 

Jan 27, 2011  Time to hit the road again. RTB is back and ready to rock the States.  I’ve started posting on my Blog too. See ya out there!

Dec 7, 2010 Robin Trower’s newest release “The Playful Heart” is now available. It was wonderful to be in the studio with such a great bunch of musicians and to get the opportunity to work with my old mate, Livingston Brown, who produced the album. Get all the details on Robin’s Website

Jan 21, 2010 Here’s a sample of one of the tracks I’ve been working on. I hope you like it. Let me know what you think. More soon ... Cheers! (Webmasters note: I’ve deleted this sample because Pete has now uploaded this song and others to his Reverb Nation Profile. )

Dec 7,2009 Wow, sorry about not posting much these last few months. I’ve been relying on the blog for most things. The 2009 tour is over and Christmas is rapidly approaching.  I’ve been hard at work writing songs and with the help of Steve Satterwhite and his amazing engineering skills, I’ll have some of them ready soon.  And now that I’ll be home for a while, I’m also expanding my teaching practice.  If you know of anyone in the DFW area that would like lessons, please let them know about me. Happy Holidays and thanks for your support and well wishes this past year, and always.
