a true example of what our forefathers expected of us as americans..."declare peace on the earth"

the idea of this was - IS - for a local gathering, geared toward children, for families to come meet on the street in town to sing some songs together. the sound system is hooked up to his truck (which I think is either an electric-powered or another alternative energy),for electricity, and local choirs and groups of children that had practiced, would come and sing for the audience. Something that should be happening in every town !

Beacon has a 2nd Saturday event. In 2007 Pete and musician friends met at the top of main street each 2nd Saturday for an evening concert. This is a brief clip from one of those concerts. Remember that Pete's entire persona is devoted, note to performing alone, but to engaging others in communual song.
