Red-Carpet Interview - Peter Cetera (Chicago), Gateway for Cancer Research 

There are two sides to every story.

That would be the most anticipated rock music reunions ever. I understand why people still ask that question, because they were so great, musically together. But I know it won't happen, so I've given up on that dream.

Chicago doesn’t need him.

@@davidpaxton3590 They're not as good without him.

And he isn’t as good without them. I don’t own and probably won’t ever own a Peter Cetera record. He sold out ! He continued to put out the same garbage, his whole career, that he did in his last few years with Chicago. He should have been at that hof induction. I don’t wanna hear any excuses. I know the other guys in the band are dicks also. But those of us who loves Chicago, wanted our Peter there. With Danny there that would of been a complete reunion of our beloved band. As complete as life would allow. Maybe we could of had Michelle Kath up there, with Terrys Guitar. I’m sure she could sing a little bit. Most girls could. Not professionally ! Maybe she could of sung Color My World or Hope for Love. Just for us Chicago fans, that still living with the tragedy of 1978. The remaining members pissed me off big time that night. Having their current lineup on stage playing. HELLO JIMMY, ROBERT, WALTER, LEE - those imposters that you let perform WERE NOT who was inducted. Then you had to spit in Danny’s face yet again and again. Bye not allowing him to sit at your table, and making him just sit at his Drummers Throne, stickless, while your drummer hof imposter got to drum on Saturday In The Park. Scumbags !!

You know he plays bass too and would not be truly playing with Chicago without using the 4-string.

I could see him maybe adding to someone's solo album, or a one-off visit to a solo tour, but I can't see him rejoining Chicago even part time. It's too bad, but I heard Pete mention working again with David Foster. That pretty much says it all. Plus, he's in semi-retirement (his words...)

​@onecircle1 He said back in the early 80's he doesn't like to sing and play bass simultaneously. Kinda 😔 but that was old news.

​@@onecircle1Which is a shame, because he was d@mn good bassist.

He is no angel along with the old band mates, but is talented and accomplished no doubt.

The difference is Lou Pardini is still in the band. When Jason left Chicago he left a vacancy that needed filling. But yes Bill's voice with Peter's was something magical.

There's 3 books. I have them all. If you have a question, I'd be happy to tell you.

Did Terry & Peter get along well?

I'm a big fan of both Peter and Chicago, but I wouldn't want to force a reunion if both parties aren't ready and they may never be ready and we'll just have to move on like they did and accept it.

Yes! Please Peter go back with your group Chicago band. Loved you all!

Peter is not in his 80s hes 76 yrs old.

Well, after they had that falling out over the hall of fame induction in April of 2016, I think the band and Cetera are at an even worse place than they were before. All things considered, it was pretty messed up. But I have to give Peter credit in this interview. Despite that recent setback, he's still polite while talking about it.

@@jchessermusic Yeah the rock and roll hall of fame fiasco definitely made their relationship worse. But Danny showed up and he was fired. It took a lot of courage for him to be there that night, when your band mates betrayed you like that. But we all know there is definitely a hostile work environment that exists in that band, no wonder Peter didn't want to be there that night. I don't blame him. I just want Peter to be happy since he's brought a lot of happiness into our lives.
