Pat Metheny Group Fans....Speaking of Now on DVD


I just received the new Pat Metheny Group DVD "Speaking of Now". The recording is great and in DTS. Great performance that shows the band in peak form during their recent concert tour. The performance was recorded in Tokyo.

I caught the show in Houston and it was great, just like this DVD.

Didn't have much time to speak to him as there was quite a line-up. Apparently he comes back out after the concert is over to speak to his fans. He was very humble and soft spoken and was pleased that there were so many people who enjoyed his music. The crew were telling us that Pat was being held up backstage (it took quite some time for him to come back out) by Antonio Banderas, who is a big fan, and Melanie Griffith.
My brother has told me a couple of stories about Pat Metheny and how he is really down-to-earth, humble and genuinely appreciative of his fans (of which I am one). The latest story from my bro' is that he noticed Pat in the audience at a Keith Jarrett Trio concert last Fall at Carnegie Hall. During intermisson, Pat was in the foyer with the rest of the audience and people were stopping to express their admiration and Pat was just smiling and expressing his thanks and chatting briefly with those who were brave enough to speak to him. A real class act!
