Blue Cheer Founder Dickie Peterson Dies At 61 Author: Gary Pig Gold 14 Oct 2009 Mose Allison ÷ Eddie Cochran x Augustus Owsley Stanley III + O2 ÷ cottage cheese = 2 Responses to Blue Cheer Founder Dickie Peterson Dies At 61 October 14, 2009 at 8:13 pm Archie Patterson says: Sad news as Dickie was a true rocker, and Blue Cheer was louder than god to be sure. The first time I saw them way back when they had 4 double stacks of Marshalls (for Dickie and Leigh) on each side of the drums. I was up in the front audience section and when they turned them on there was a deafening buzz that made the hair on my arms stand up – honest. The rest of the show was a gift from heaven for a teenager who was in love with the “noize”. Those were the days my friend, we thought they’d never end… RIP Dickie!
