Stalwart
Band Manager, John Needham told 4BR: "Peter is the very definition of the word 'stalwart'; with an incredible, unmatched loyalty and dedication to the band he loves.
We owe our very existence to Peter. His selfless work over the years has sustained the band through good times and bad. He is a living legend, and I'm sure I speak for everyone past and present as well as the wider banding community in paying tribute to him."
