Peter Yarrow and Mary Travers didn't show much interest in hanging around. Mary seemed stand-offish and Peter Yarrow appeared to be a
"know-it-all" who was superior to fans and anybody around. He took the fun out this backstage gathering.
Peter Yarrow (1938-2025) is gone now so I won't go into any more of his controversial history. What's past is past.
But besides Peter's legendary children's song "Puff The Magic Dragon", it's hard to ignore his anti-hunting song "Polly Von" which has got to be
one of the best (although grossly under-rated) PP&M songs ever recorded.
