Unfortunately I have had to remove this facilty due to continued invasion of innapropriate and offensive advertising.
Thank you to all those who have been kind enough to leave messages in the past, they are all very much appreciated!

Comment: Hello Pete,
Thank you for a marvellous concert at the Candlelighters at Newton Aycliffe last night, you had us all in your pocket.

I'm the lucky female who won the CD you offered for the Name That Tune and Composer bit. I've played it through twice already- great stuff. Anyway, I just put a link up to this site from a really good Irish social networking site I use, that has a strong interest in music, so I hope some will stroll by and check you out.
All good wishes to you.

Comment: hi pete, me and anna like your songs a lot, especially the sincerity in your voice.
your words are warm, humble and honest.
I 've been writing songs for the last 15 years, always trying to keep that simplicity a good song needs
I 'd like to send you a copy of original songs
roughly! recorded on my own...(with a little tremble in my voice here and there as I get awfully nervous during recording)
I hope to hear from you!
cheers, andi

Comment: Hi Pete, how are you? Although, having known you since the age of four or five, my opinion may be classed by some as slightly biased I'll give it anyway.I've been listening to your music for longer than anyone, from the nucleic stage of a simple "What do you think of this line ?" to the finely honed songs that everbody loves to hear and I can only say that I never get sick of hearing them. You're a rare talent mate, ( as I've always told you),good luck with the tour.

Comment: I really have to get this guest book moving again. Much though I like Dave, his posting has been up there too long! :)

Anyway it was great to see you again last week...great show and you conquered the voice gremlins pretty well. And thanks for doing 'The Innocent One' again - still think it's a great song.

I really hope to catch you at that show with Edwina Hayes in January. The two of you on the same bill will be some show!

Take care!

Comment: When I purchase a new CD it is very rare that I can honestly say that I enjoyed all of the tracks. When I first listened to 'Against the wall' in my car travelling to Monterey, California, I was immediately impressed with Pete's voice and the quality of all his songs. A short while later, I was even more surprised that I had a similar experience when I first played the self-titled 'Pete Abbott' CD. Great work, Pete!

Comment: Remember what I said at Mum & Dad's Golden Wedding - "the Abbott's don't go in for great shows of emotion and sentimentality" so, at the risk of contradicting myself, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your song-writing skills and the way in which you deliver them. You've got a great talent Pete and long may it continue. Best of luck at tonight's album launch - we'll all be there to support you. And in the words of that other brother of ours - "ciao bro". T.

Comment: NEW CD "Against The Wall " Like all singer songwriters we all feel against the wall sometimes but I was right. You are one of the finest writers around at the moment and if this CD does not launch you into folk clubs all over the country then I 'll give up with you. Congratulations on a great collection of tunes and may the Gods be with you on this one and keep you off the wall. Best wishes to you and yours

Comment: Hearing Pete's renditions of ''And I love you so''
and ''Vincent'', in the Don Mclean forum , made me
want to know more about the man behind the voice.
A ''Google'' search led me to his Web site. His
beautiful renditions of cover songs is only part
of the story.Sound files of his own songs reveal a
sensitive song writer with a warm pure voice that
lingers on long after the song has finished.

Browsing across it earlier this evening prompted me to put on your CD for the first time in a while, and it's blowing me away all over again. I don't think you have any idea how good you actually are. I'm still looking forward to the next one, and would like to think that I might eventually get to see you play at a gig again one day. Very best wishes.

I am really impressed with your website and happy that so many people are enjoying your musical talent. Of course, they haven't met the true musical genious of the family yet............ Remember "Acting like a lady is going out of fashion.........?!" Oh dear, the less said about that the better. By the way, I can't believe you don't even know where yopur big sister is living. Shame on you! Love you lots. See you in July if I can find my way back to Manchester!

They liked them so much and wouldn't believe me that you were my uncle! I still love your CD and there are songs to listen to whatever mood I'm in. Love you! See you in July!

Comment: I first heard Pete play in Sept 2002 when he played a gig I'd organised to help raise funds for Cystic Fibrosis. My immediate reaction was "Why have I never heard this guy before?". He has everything a good singer/songwriter needs. Great voice, beautiful lyrics, stylish guitar technique and a sense of humour.If he's in your neck of the woods you MUST get to see him. Keep up the excellent work Pete.

Comment: I felt I had to visit Pete's website and sign his guest book because hearing his music was a complete accident. I live in Atlanta, GA in the USA, and an English friend of mine (we share the same musical tastes) sent me Pete's CD. I think his songs are direct, honest and beautifully crafted. Well recommended. It's just a shame I can't get to see Pete play live.

Saw you recently at Burnley Mechanics and enjoyed it very much. Your songs were both melodic and thought provoking and I can't wait for you to come around this area again.
