Dylan

Looking for Dylan tickets online, I learned that “There are no concert dates scheduled in your area.” Oh well. Looks like most of the dates next year are in Europe. I can’t get upset. For my money, I hope Bob (yes, just Bob) stays forever young and I’m lucky enough to see him next time he comes to the Southwest.

Attended his show in St Augustine FL on this tour.  One of his best that I have seen.  

…….I find some of these comments very surprising as well as interesting. I saw him in the last seventies, then a few times in the eighties when the Grateful Dead and or Tom Petty 's band backed him up and then with his band in the nineties. I saw him a couple times in in the early 2000's and one time in particular during that time, his voice was sooo bad and the lyrics he was singing were indistinguishable to the point that the very fond memories I had of his songs I was hoping were not going to be '' forever tainted ''.  I almost left that show half way through as it was just plain awful. The band / musicians he has with him were top notch so I enjoyed just watching them and out of respect for Mr. Dylan, I stayed. My brother and I agreed that Merle Haggard was a much show and he was the warm up band. It is great that he is still touring for people who have maybe never have seen him and ant to see a living legend but ehhhhh I would never see him again. Willie Nelson is now what 85-86, now that guy can still sing and play !   

Garebear it is surprising, I too have seen him dozens of times including when Merle opened; these new shows, the arrangements, the clarity in sound (piano vocals and harmonica) shocked, amazed and overwhelmingly pleased me.
