 | Herbie Hancock performs tonight in Lisbon, and I´ll go to the concert. Unfortunately Paul will be not there to perform «I Do It For Your Love». |

| Still don´t know the setlist. But I don´t think, because it´s him only with his quartet... But, we never know... Maybe there is a «Possibility» :) |

| Great, great night with Herbie. Great performances, from him and his musicians: Matt Garrison (bass), Richie Barshay (drums) and Lionel Loneke (guitar) - a name to pay attention.
He played different versions (in pure jazz)of 3 songs that figures in «Possibilities»: Stitched Up, When Love Comes to Town and I Just Called to Say I love you.
When he talked to the audience explaning the project of Possibilities he didn´t mention Paul Simon. He said something like «everybody had great fun recording the songs, I think Christina Aguilera, Sting, Annie Lennox had great fun doing that...». Then he also mentioned John Mayer when introducing the performance of «Stitched Up»
Great night! |

| Stitched up is one of my favourites since I have this CD. Great night!
When you say pure jazz, does that mean no one was singin?
BTW.: Did anyone ever buy this ´making of´ Possibiliets (I think that was released on DVD, wasn´t it?) |

| Yes, but as far as I know Paul Simon doesn´t figure on the DVD, so I haven´t bought it. I only have the CD.
«Stitched Up» was «jazz vocaly» perform by the bassist of the band, but a little bit different from John Mayer´s vocals.
And by the way... the audience was also great. All the artists recognize this about portuguese audiences. So, I´m sure that if Paul was making his concert here, everybody was dancing giving the pleasure to the artist. This is the way people have to show pleasure. This happened when I saw first time PS, in 1991, here in Lisbon, performing to 50 000 persons. The best concert I have seen until today. Much, much better than Ols Friends Tour, that I saw in Amsterdam. |

 | There is a section on the DVD with Paul. I have the DVD, and it is interesting to watch. |

| Is it longer than the one, that was once posted on the offical Paul Simon Site? |

| I don´t know how long the other one was. It shows Herbie talking about how Paul came a day early and and offered to work with the rhythm section. It shows Paul talking with the musicians and Herbie playing part of the song. |
