Show was last night. Band walked out all in black against a black back drop. It wasn't the most visual of experiences. Bob walked to the stage carrying a white 1930s straw boaters hat, but must have decided not to wear it once the band began to play.
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
