Founded and produced by Joel Harrison and Life Force Arts, the Alternative Guitar Summit is a yearly gathering of some of the most creative guitarists on earth. Each year we honor a living composer in our “While We’re Still Here” series. 2017’s honoree is Pat Metheny. Metheny is celebrating the release of a book of 150 of his compositions. Seven acts will perform 14 of those pieces. Harrison will interview Metheny on stage before the show.

Thanks for the assist, Judit!

 

I got my Tix already! 

Cool 

Love him, but he should get a haircut.

Just saw Medeski, Martin and Wood for a couple shows there, recently. Great venue to see a jazz outfit. No spot taken for Metheny but it's good spot for it.

I love Pat Metheny. His first album "Pat Metheny Group" is my desk here right now. (Waiting for the sun to shine someday to play it)

Just ran into Medeski at my favorite local taco spot. Said hey and updated him about a mutual friend then introduced my kids and let him go back to his tacos.

Great guy. I don't think anyone else in the very crowded spot recognized him.

He must have been in town pow wowing with management.

Word is, we are getting the Last Waltz40 at the amphitheater here in their next leg in the spring.

 

I really wish I had a pied-a-terre around the corner from Le Poisson Rouge.

That place gets all the good shows.

The big question is, will Pat Matheny play at an Event in which he is being honored???

Ars Nova Workshop is pleased to present Joel Harrison’s 7th annual Alternative Guitar Summit, coming to Philadelphia for the first time. A stunning all-star line-up of six-string masters will pay homage to Pat Metheny.
 

Miles Okazaki is very good too.  Heard him in DC, he was a finalist in the Thelonius Monk jazz guitar competition.

Also played with Diana Krall for a while  

 

 

 

Correction: Miles was with Jane Monheit not Diana Krall. Anthony Wilson is with DK, no slouch his own self. 

Oh how I love San Lorenzo! 

First album was the great "Bright Size Life"

My favorite Pat, is the fusion masterpiece,  Pastorius Metheny Ditmas Bley, album, it is a must have!

Now it looks like I have to work Friday, March 10th. I have 2 Tix for this. Anybody want 'em? (That is, if I can transfer them) $50 for the pair.

Turns out I can transfer tix to someone else, if anyone wants my 2 Tix...

Anybody want to see this show? I have 2 Seated Tickets that I cannot use. $50 for the pair.
