Al Di Meola (USA)
8:00pm State Theatre
Thanks Darsh for suggesting this gig. OK real talk... I was aware of this show already and debated to myself about whether to add this gig. How many jazz fusion nerds are there out there reading this guide? I don't know. But I am one of them. Billy Cobham, Chick Corea, Mahavishnu Orchestra, Herbie Hancock, Stanley Clarke, Jeff Beck... and Al fucking Di Meola. Honestly, his "Elegant Gypsy" might be up in there in a list of my favourite albums of all time. It rips. And this guy is a beast on the guitar. And now I'm thinking I should probably get a ticket to this ...
