Hi Pat,
I spoke to you once about lessons and you emailed your number. I didn't want to bother you with a call and hoped to correspond with email. I understand you being busy though. I'm at college right now and won't be able to set something up until the earliest over the winter break. I also feel that I am too young, not ready enough, but perhaps you've had students of all abilities. I appreciate your time and music and inspiration. It is wonderful to have music one with life. Take care, hope to hear from you soon.

Marseille, FRANCE - Thursday, September 30, 2004 at 11:38:09 (EDT)I -ching, I get it . I don't know what it is, but for some reason that circular theory of yours makes sense. I'm so lucky to have found the great Mr. Jimmy Bruno, his instructional material was a godsend for me. I read Your articles and I'm starting to apply Your philosophical vision into my little simple thing.You guys are so generous, just had to say thanks. The Weekly paper here named one of Your albums one of the best of all time in Philly,I certainly agree but they left out Jimmy. That man deserves his due as well. Saw Eddie Lang in an old movie clip, very cool. I ching , I ching it's like gettin hit in the head with wisdom. You guys are guru maestros.

philadelphia, pa USA - Friday, September 24, 2004 at 04:46:49 (EDT)Hi Pat, Just paying a little web visit! Though I may not be really the same style of player as you, I still think back and appreciate the opportunity to meet with you and feel some of your music at close range. One day I hope to be able to share some music with you and converse in a musical dialogue. In any case, I'm really glad to know you're out there playing and growing in the music. Again, My Thanks, Jeff

San Francisco, WCA USA - Saturday, September 18, 2004 at 15:32:44 (EDT)Help! I can't stop listening to The Maker; I've been listening to it continuously for nearly three weeks :<) Quite honestly, as good as his most recent recordings have been, every second of this CD is a treasure. I have to place it right up there w/Kind of Blue, as one of the best jazz recordings in history. I have seen all of the major jazz guitarists live, and had the good fortune of studying briefly with Jimmy Raney, but Pat you are the best electric guitarists that ever walked the planet. Loved your shows (at) Zanzibar last month. Hope you gig at Blues Alley again soon.

Naples, Italy - Wednesday, September 08, 2004 at 15:02:11 (EDT)Please correct me if I am mistaken, but do I not see references to Pat's shows here that were not listed under "Itinerary"? I hope for sure that all of Pat's live shows are listed so that those of us who do not live in a large city can put plans together to come and listen to the man! Live long and prosper, Pat. Your music makes the world a better place every day.
