Not sure TBH, Dave. Rings a bell that he organised gigs but couldn't say for sure.
I love this bit on his wikipedia entry...
"After Seventeen was disbanded, the group reformed under the name Alarm Alarm, based on one of the songs written by Peters for The Toilets. BBC Radio 1 John Peel commented that with Duran Duran, Talk Talk and now Alarm Alarm perhaps he should call himself John Peel John Peel, so the name was shortened to The Alarm."
Also..."In "Edward Henry Street" of the album with the same name Peters sings "bought Aladdin Sane from Greaves records" in reference to the song by David Bowie"
I bought Prove It by Television, my 1st 12" single (amongst other things) from there!
