@@bethepperson5363Pat is classically trained in opera and at her peak had a 4.5 octave, nearly 5 octave range. She might be drawing on those reserves to help power through her concerts. Pat is a legend in the industry.
What do you expect from a woman who is 70 years old,yes she didn’t hit some of those notes the band - music not as crisp as it once was but Neil is up in years as well plus the music had to be altered to fit Pat’s voice because she is not unable to do what she once was still a killer tune and still delivered with the same passion as ever !! Thank You Pat and Nick !!
I’ve seen her a couple of times and she performed the night before, so her voice was little bit hoarse. She also said on a question and answer before the show that she could still hit some of the higher notes but she changes the range, so she could perform the whole night, otherwise she might blow out her voice early on the concert. That is why she saves the harder songs for the end!! Check out my channel for some other songs and you can see how she changes the scale. I like the tiny bit of hoarseness this might because it gave her that edgy Rock n Roll sound and I fully agree with you. Either way Pat and Spyder Rock!!🎉🎉
@@readwrite769Happy Birthday to Pat Benatar. She just turned 71 years old yesterday, January 10, 2024. She was 70 in this 2023 concert. Neil Giraldo is about the same age and they still sound great together.
Fully agree!! Spyder’s style always added to their songs, I have some good solos/closeups on my channel. 🔥🔥 Here were some highlights from one concert ua-cam.com/video/zAaYkO4Roog/v-deo.htmlsi=3vzC8g9Qql0a1Lfq
I haven’t been there in while and heard that parking was bad, but had no problem. They didn’t advertise that much and we got lucky buying tickets early. She plays at Paramount on Long Island frequently, so you could catch her there, we’ve never been to that place, either way sound was really good at Bald Hill and they were great!!🎉🎉
Yeah, she was a little bit hoarse earlier in the concert and then even got better as it went on. Think it was because they played the night before. Still great like you mentioned!!😀😀
@@readwrite769Pat just turned 71 and tours more than many younger bands. Pat is the first lady of rock and roll. Stevie Nicks is 75 and still tours and that would make a good tour of the elder females of rock and roll, Pat Benatar and Stevie Nicks.
I actually like her voice better singing in a lower register as it is more soulful imo. She is a little hoarse in this performance but she nails it to the wall in Austin City Limits.
I love you Pat been a fan since 1979 for The Heat Of The Night Album went to your Seven the Hardway tour in 1986 in Vancouver , what a great show that was you wore a fringed black leather jacket❤️ and you still are fantastic, love the long hair ,would have loved to see you at the PNE have fun!!!!
@@thekatiecage I do miss it too, she says it is too political to sing at this time, not sure when she will bring back. I polled on my channel that same question and some people felt it was tongue in cheek, but obviously up to her whether to sing or not.
She still carries a tune well in spite of her age - looks really good too. Sorry, I'll never accept her with any hairstyle but the brunette pixie/bob. Long blonde doesn't suit.
Wonder if all the touring keeps her voice in good shape!! I have some more clips of her on my channel where she has shorter hair and the ends are highlighted, looks like punk rocker!!😃😃
15 years ago I worked in theatre and I was always sayin " you need to get Pat Benetar for a show" i got wormed out the local union before they toured again. I vouched for Cyndie Lauper too. She played
@@readwrite769Pat and Neil tour aggressively in rock and roll and are one of the small number of long marriage couples who perform in the music industry.
@@readwrite769Yes, she has a 4.5 octave range and has come a long way from a bank teller in the 1970s. She is classically trained in opera. Pat Benatar had huge chart hits from 1979 through 1985, especially. She and Neil Giraldo have been married since early 1982, over 41 years. They have two grown daughters together. Pat Benatar was born Patricia Andrezjewski. The Benatar name originates from a brief marriage during the 1970s and she kept the name.
@@jasonburger3533 Thks, they also mentioned that during concert, how many years they were married and that they were finally inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!😃😃
@@readwrite769 That must have been a spectacular experience to have been able to attend Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo in concert. Pat has a memoir book from 2010 in hardcover and from 2011 in paperback released that I have recently purchased later than what should have been. As far as awards, I know they have been awarded Grammys over the years, but I think that they should get the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award if the have not already and the Kennedy Center Honors, which itself they should have been awarded many years ago, in my opinion. They are true icons in the entertainment industry since at least 1979 and certainly the 1980s. They make up a major husband and wife team in the industry, a rarity that happens to be as well.🎶🎼🎵🙂😀😞🙂🙂
Pat & Spyder @Bald Hill Amphitheater Long Island NY, front row seats!!😊😊Great version of Promises in the Dark!!🎉🎉
Rest in Peace beautiful soul 😌
@@Uriel-777They are all still alive.
all smiles over here ... Spyder with an axe is just the stuff of legends, and Pat's voice, well it just gets better
They put on a great show, thanks for commenting!
Go Pat!
🥰🥰🥰
@@readwrite769Pat is in a class by herself.
Amazing performance...
Glad you enjoyed, I was lucky to have front row seats and capture it on video for others to see!!😃😃
Thank you for sharing the footage!@@readwrite769

I fell in love with Pat the first time I heard her…. then I saw her. I was gone.
Fully agree!!🥰🥰 Thanks for commenting!!
@@warborn_inc.The original Promises in the Dark is incredible, I am working on a Now and Then video, soon to release on channel!!🥰🥰
Voice is old but she still has all those singin skills she worked so hard at all her life
We're all old and I guarantee that your voice is different but the same.. Just like mine.... LOL

I prefer "seasoned"...she's still got it, tho, as well as the stage presence...
Pat and Neil are the real deal, always have been, always will be!!
And finally in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!!😃😃

She was at Bald Hill last month? Damn. I hate going there but I would’ve went.
I haven’t been there in while and heard that parking was bad, but had no problem. They didn’t advertise that much and we got lucky buying tickets early.

The spyder is looking worn out and old...he is younger than Pat but looks older.
He still sounded pretty good and hit the notes, but not sure how many years more they can play!!
love you, Pat !
Miss the upper register in the bridge .. always awesome tho ❤️

She’s 70 for Pete’s sake!! It was powerful.
