saw him many years ago..(late 70's)
I was amazed at the # of 'older' people there.. found myself sitting next to some old farts & ladies.. who knew his songs line by line.. Rika |

Although I didn't attend, Bob played here for a baseball stadium opening several years ago...a HUGE disappointment for friends that did go. I've got probably 30 Dylan albums/cds, etc. but imo he's like Van Morrison....enjoy the recorded legacy, but don't go see a live show expecting "greatness" or you may leave very disappointed.

Saw him live a few years ago. Wish I didn't, love his music but it was the worst show I have ever been to. It was a mumbling incoherent drunk guy nobody could understand and his piano playing was awful!
That being said, I am sure you will have a better time than I had.

Bob loves to play his songs different from studio sets and some songs needed a keen ear just to recognize them. There was plenty of life in Bob, though his voice kinda of barked now and then. Dylan played a lot of keyboards, harmonica, and the only guitar he played was a sunburst stratocaster like the one he played and got booed for at Wood Stock in '69. Bob never addressed the audience with a hello, goodbye, or thank you, but on a rare interaction with us toward the end, he introduced his band members. At the end of the concert he and the band stood in a row at the front of the stage, lights went up and they made no bows or gestures, kind of awkward. The lights went down and they walked off. They made one On-core. I loved the play list and yes the old people showed up again, but it was a younger crowd in front of the stage, including some infants and three to five year olds. PLAY LIST as memory serves Leopard-Skin Pill-box Hat Like a Rolling Stone Ballad of a thin man Highway 61 Tangled up in blue Simple twist of fate Visions of Joanna All along the watch tower

Seven times I've seen him. Almost shook his hand on stage but a screaming teenage girl tackled him right as my outstretched hand reached for his and security rushed him offstage. I'll admit his voice is getting very gravelly, last show sounded like it was very difficult for him to try and sing and voice the words. I've always loved his voice, seriously.

Still get chills when I hear "Forever Young"...and think about my kids and how fast life is going by.
Not many songs stir emotion that way. Bob made it look easy. He may be a bad performer, but his music and impact is tattoo'd on my soul. On many of our souls. Very special. |

FYI, Dylan didnt play woodstock. I think you meant the 1965 Newport Folk Festival
 Bob is a longtime hero and i have seen him. i was very disappointed. He is coming here next month and im debating going. probably wont. I did love his last album, thought it was great Quote:

Blonde on Blonde - best album ever.
I saw him about 5 years ago and had to go home after the concert and listen to his records to remind myself that I like him.
