Rose, please, please don't miss them if you can at all help it. I heard the group on this current tour and I can guarantee that they will blow your mind real good. >The current Pat Metheny >group only retains Metheny and keyboardist Mays, but it also adds trumpet, >vocals and additional percussion. Look out for rhythmic excursions. -- >Andy Fenwick A perfect example of a case where even a generally favorable critic gets it wrong. The current group retains not only Metheny and Mays, but also my good friend and longtime colleague, bassist/co-producer Steve Rodby, now in his 21st year with Pat. Also, Metheny has used vocals and additional percussion in the band for over 20 years. There have always been "rhythmic excursions," whatever that means. -Fred
