02/18, Sat 8:30 ~ PETER YARROW ~ $35 +$2 processing
Towne Crier Cafe Pawling, NY
Peter Yarrow's talents as a creative artist -- both with the legendary trio Peter, Paul & Mary and as a solo performer -- are frequently directed at using music to convey a message of humanity and caring. His gift for songwriting has produced some of the most moving songs from Peter, Paul & Mary, including Puff, the Magic Dragon. As a member of the renowned musical trio, Yarrow has earned multiple gold and platinum albums, as well as numerous GRAMMYs.
Over the years, many issues have moved Peter to commit his time and talent: equal rights, peace, the environment, gender equality, homelessness, hospice care, and education. All have utilized his skills as both a performer and an organizer. Peter Yarrow's life and work -- culminating in the founding and leadership of Operation Respect with its Don't Laugh At Me initiative -- is based on his passionate belief that music, with its power to build community and catalyze change, can be a particularly powerful organizing tool.

I've seen Peter Yarrow many times, usually in large venues. The last time was at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in July, 2005. After his set, which he shared with his daughter Bethany, I went to get his autograph on a 3 disc PPM compilation. Bethany carried it back and around 5 minutes later she came out and explained that he had signed it but to someone else and gave it to them. When he found out the error he came out to meet me. He asked me for my address so he could send me a replacement set and gave me his pen as collateral. It was a Parker fountain pen and he wouldn't take no for an answer. When the replacement disc arrived there wasn't any return address on the package. I've been looking for som opportunity since then to give the pen back. Now it's February 2012 and I'm prepared to return the pen that was left as collateral 6 1/2 years ago. I don't know if he'll remember the situation but I know I'm going to thoroughly enjoy the show at TCC.
