It really meant a lot to me that Metheny would write this song for everyone in New Orleans. The tune is both sad and hopeful.

And played with so much sensitivity and patience. Amazing. There's hope in this world if this is on television. Profound.

Recall the Clinton was helping raise $ for Katrina victims and this episode of Spectacle with Elvis Costello on Sundance was to help raise some more $s. So Bill stopped by.
