I)I’ve traveled around the would, but nothing like Pat , and year after year he is around the world !!, Just imagine his memories of each concert , 150 or so per year. I can’t imagine having that experience.... it must be the ultimate human experience in my opinion !j |

Marc. ..... Side eye concerts in the next 11 months, approx 120, but more
impressively all over the civilized world.. again, can’t imagine being Pat, all the
memories he has had from 45 years of touring the world . Still boggles the
imagination!! And, he will be visiting me here in Sacramento in2 weeks !!!
Can’t wait. ....

patsfan : I just went to the PMD website and did a count for his 1977 World tour. If I counted correctly I came up with
160 days and 242 shows. He turned 23 years old in 1977. Forty-four years later he still is going strong. I can’t even
imagine how many shows he has done in those 45 years. Any Math Majors at AG want to tackle that one?

patsfan : Have you ever checked out the marc morvan Pat Metheny Database website? Marc has done a great job at
compiling Pat’s Concerts Chronology. It’s amazing how many shows he did in the early years when he would do four
nights in a row at Amazingrace (Evanston IL) and two shows each night. Back then he didn’t have enough material to
do his marathon (2 1/2 - 3 hour long) shows. He still does a hundred plus shows a year. Multiple that by how long
each show was I bet it is at least 300 hours in a year. I can see him playing another 25 years or more. AARP can
sponsor his tours.
