Pat Metheny

[roger]

I got to see a preview concert on Tuesday of the new Pat Metheny Group tour. they've just released a new album, "The Way Up", and it is incredible. if you're a fan, you'll like this one. an fabulous concert, full of some of the most amazing music that he and Lyle have written. "The Way Up" is a four movement piece lasting nearly 70 minutes, that they play without pause (except for the applause!). uncountable changing time signatures, guitar switches, and incredible drumming from Antonio Sanchez make for a blissful night. as if that wasn't enough, after they finished the feature piece (most of the audience would have been satisfied at that point), they came back and played for almost an hour and a half of old favorites! "First Circle", "The Bat", and too many to remember. a fabulous show.

obviously, I heartliy recommend catching this show!
