Thread Name: Pete Seeger's last concert
Subject: RE: Pete Seeger's last concert
You folks have me thinking of "A Handful Of Songs"---by Jerry Rasmussen !

Pete has played all along during the times you are talking about. He came to Chicago and did a benefit for me when my health first went south---1991. He did a fine concert with old friends Caty Fink & Marcy Marxer around 2001 or '02. He was here in Chicago and joined the group WEAVERMANIA on stage at a concert at The Chicago Historical Society -- and wound up doing half the concert with them. And, of course, in recent times, Pete has been singing with his grandson, Tau Rodriguez.

I think what this retirement means is that Pete will only be doing bnefits.
