Pete's Temperment

[Eric Stanley <otter@expert.cc.purdue.edu>]

In regards to the Deer Creek Show of Quad on July 26th.  The band
seemed to be getting along quite well.  They joked around on stage
and smiled and laughed at each other.  John made a rare oral contribution
by saying goodnight to everyone.  Roger was energetic and played the crowd well,
and Pete was unusually active.  For the first time in a long time it actually
looked like he was enjoying himself.  He danced, he jumped, he hopped, he
windmilled, he smiled, he laughed, it was a big turn around from the Buffalo
show last Nov.  He windmilled so much in fact that his shirt became untucked
and the shirt tail often ended up lying across the front of his gutair.  
After hately pulling his shirt tail away for most of the concert at the v       After hastley pulling his shirt tail out of the way for most of the concert,
at the very end he held up his gutair, yelled something I was not able to
understand, and gently shoved it into the air, and allowed it to land on
stage.  No doubt damaging it in some way.  Not the way you would think 
someone would treat an instrument after using it for so long.  (It had the
same number on it that the one at the Buffalo show had).
After Pete stalked off stage, Roger picked up the gutair, said something
non-understable into the mike, unhooked the gutair, and hopped off stage
with it.
Any insight into this chain of events would be greatly appreciated.
