Al Di Meola & the Metropole Orkest
Sages and Spirits at Cervantes in Denver CO 5/29/2026
This was our first time seeing this arrangement of these artist, but they were great together and my wife, uncle and I all really enjoyed the show. Glad they did a full set like the Dead and there was no opener. They played another unique set on 5/30 but I was not able to make it to both shows. Melvin Seals was again absolutely wonderful. I saw him a couple months back and could not wait to see him again for good reason. I think I’m getting an idea of why Jerry liked playing with him so much. Sorry, just one photo from the show.

I was unaware he is still around.
Nice! I’d love to see him live sometime. I only came across him recently and was just watching an old live show from him last night on YouTube. Hopefully he will come through my area here soon. I’d certainly go if I can.
Thanks! Second time I’ve seen him, he’s one of those guys that just makes insane playing look completely effortless, definitely worth going if he’s around.
