Playing The Stick is easy and at the same time, not. Allow hard work and time to get you to your goal. Musical grat... |

I did this interview 8-10 years ago for Twentieth Century Guitar mag. A fave. After the interview, I ended up giving Pat a brief Stick lesson, then he grabbed a geeetar and we jammed for around 20 minutes. A special day for me. http://www.steveadelson.com/interview_metheny.php
