Ever wanted to ask Peter a question? (No, not THAT question!) Well, here's your chance. Peter has his own cyber-advice column that can be found here:
Check out thedailypanic.com for Peter's column (yes, he really answers the questions). Who knows, your question (and Peter's answer) may appear soon.
And, while you're there, check out some of the other columns as well. The web-zine is the brainchild of a Monkeeland member, who doesn't come around
much anymore (and I for one miss her)!
Have fun!
(and, check out the photos at the top of Peter's column - you may recognize the photo credit under the picture on the far right) <g>

Thanks - I like it too. I was quite honored when I was asked to contribute pictures for consideration. That one was taken at a Two Man Band concert, in
Saratoga Springs, New York in February, 2004. It's been one of my favorite pictures of Peter ever since I took it.

The other writers are very good with the turn of phrase, too! How long has "Daily Panic" been in production? |

Therra, the "owner" of the webzine, is indeed a very talented writer.
The edition that's online now is the very first edition. This is something Therra's been working on for awhile apparently. She said that the March edition should be out hopefully by mid-March. Peter is apparently receiving about 25 questions a DAY! Needless to say, he will not be able answer all of them, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that some of the ones he chooses will be from Monkeelanders.

This edition will be up until the next one is out. I'm not sure if previous editions will be available thru archive or not, but I'm thinking that they
will be.

Nice write up on the new feature....
http://www.prweb.com/releases/2008/02/prweb717584.htm Ever Needed To Ask A Monkee For Advice? Who Hasn't? "Ask Peter Tork" Debuts Online at thedailypanic.com Former teen idol and current Shoe Suede Blues-man and solo artist Peter Tork is taking questions on a variety of topics from people all over the globe in his new column, "Ask Peter Tork". Find it exclusively online at http:// thedailypanic.com Have a question? Peter Tork has an answer. Think of it as having your own Monkee Uncle. Atlanta, Ga (PRWEB) February 25, 2008 ---Hey, hey he's...an advice columnist? Peter Tork, former member of the Monkees and long time heartthrob of women "of a certain age" hasn't stopped rocking - he's still got a blues band on the road and does Monkee-related appearances to the delight of old and new fans, but he's also taking his life experience and passing it on to readers who ask his advice on everything from boy trouble to boy bands. Along with Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz and Michael Nesmith, as the TV and pop music darlings the Monkees, Peter Tork rocketed to world wide stardom in the 1960s and has periodically toured and worked with his former bandmates since then, including several very popular reunion tours and a TV special. As part of the motley and irresistible crew of writers at http://www.thedailypanic.com, Peter is the newly-minted advice columnist and author of "Ask Peter Tork". "It just seemed a natural addition for Peter, as far as I could see" says The Daily Panic editor Therra Cathryn Gwyn, a hurricane Katrina refugee who came up with the idea for her webzine while living in her RV, " Peter is incredibly patient. I have watched him sit and listen to people's problems -- at times people he barely knew -- for far longer than most of us would and in the end give them good, solid advice. Luckily for us, he's both book-smart and savvy in life experience. He's been a TV and music mega-star, had highs that would have killed some people, lows that would have killed others and a career that's lasted longer than some of his fans have been alive. He's a recovering alcoholic now sober for over 25 years, has oodles of relationship experience, he's got great, productive children, he lived through the 60s and is still rocking in his 60s. If that doesn't qualify him to dish out some advice, I don't know what does." "Ask Peter Tork" is not just advice for the lovelorn, however. Fans and the curious write in asking about everything from relationships to rock star quirks, from guy talk to guitars. And, surprising to some, nearly as many men as women write in. "Peter is one of the six pop stars in the world who are actually interested in something other than themselves," Gwyn jokes,"If your kids want to ask a rock star for advice, steer them away from Tommy Lee and towards Peter Tork." Find Peter and the rest of The Daily Panic crew shakin' at http://www.thedailypanic.com You can write to him yourself at askpetertork@thedailypanic.com. Think of it as having your own Monkee Uncle.

Peter's column has been updated - you may see a familiar name or two in the question-askers!
The pictures have changed and mine has been replaced. Fame - so fleeting!

I'll admit that I'm the 1st letter on the page. The minute I sent that
letter, I regretted it because I made myself sound so pathetic. But, Peter gave just about the best advice I've ever heard on the subject. He should have
been doing this column for years.

I wondered if that was you Cyndi. Peter is a very wise, caring and sharing man.

I've always wanted to have a conversation with him, just to discuss real life. I've never met him, as so many
on this board have. But, I have at least one personal answer from him that makes a whole lot of since and that I will pay serious attention to.

I think it is a great question, Cyndi, that applies to many people. Thanks for submitting it! I think Peter's advice is excellent for a tough question like
that. Honestly ... I think the situation applies to many people, too ...
Great read, gang! - Thanks for the heads up on that, I would have probably never found it on my own. I didn't think about submitting a question, but it looks like fun, I will think about it. |

I had someone on another list email ME and ask me why Peter hadn't answered her (after I posted that the column had been updated)!
As if I had the
power to make that happen!!
