National tour of pub gigs for the generation of young adults who grew up on Peter's music. Venues included the ANU Bar Canberra, The Metro Sydney, The Republic Bar in Hobart, The Zoo in Brisbane, Fremantle Fly By Night, The Amplifier Bar Perth, The Governor Hindmarsh Adelaide, and Northcote Social Club in Melbourne. All shows were wild with enthusiastic newspaper hat wearing, toffee apple waving big kids, whose energetic singing along with their favourite songs was at times deafening!

July - August 2007

Peter visited the UK and played at the Kindermusik concert in York, the Three Choirs Plus Festival in Gloucester, and at 2 sell out concerts at the Edinburgh Fringe.

Peter had an enjoyable time performing with students aged 10 to 15 yearsfrom Wesley College, Melbourne. 14 of his songs were arranged by Wesley's Head of Music for band, strings and choir. He rehearsed for 2 hours with the students on the first day, then performed 6 concerts to audiences of young children over the next 2 days. From being pretty 'scratchy' at the rehearsal, the kids got better and better and learnt so much about playing, performing and having to get it right! By concert 6 they were really rocking! It was a wonderfully worthwhile experience for the kids and they learnt SO much ..
