      I have a chance to see Peter Case live in the next week or so.  I'm a big Plimsouls and Nerves (Peter was in both) fan but realize Peter has been doing the solo thing for many years.

      Has anybody seen Peter live recently to give me some kind of idea as what to expect? From what i can figure out, it's just him and his guitar, and i'm not really a big fan of the singer/songwriter thing. Unless of course he tossed in a coupla Plimsouls tunes or something like that, which would probably make it all right.

       

      thanx

      I've seen him solo several times and with the Plimsouls twice.

      Last time I saw him, in Los Alamos, NM 3 or 4 years ago, he was fantastic. It was soon after he'd released his album Wig, which was a rocker. It was just him and a drummer ( local guy, Baird Banner) Far more rocking than the other solo shows I've seen.

      i saw The Plimsouls in Dallas , once , in 1981. I was still in High School , it was a then - rare All Ages show. The headliner was Split Enz (Who had to leave after one song , because of a sudden thunderstorm (Outdoor venue , dontcha know..).Robin Lane and The Chartbusters and local faves , The Telefones , played , too. 

      I was quite impressed with The Plimsouls , at the time....But not enough to pay over 25 dollars to see them the next time I had the chance , but , that's just me. I thought Case looked a lot like Doug Sahm on stage.
