Anyone in LA see Dylan at the Shrine tonight? A friend said the place had a really bad vibe - a lot of drunk old men were fighting in both the cheap and expensive seats ... People were complaining - wild scene.

Makes me wonder again how he will go over at Desert Trip - 90% of the fans there will be in for a surprise if they're unfamilar with his live shows.

1) "I'm gonna go see Bob Dylan."
2) "Oh cool! I remember the Concert For Bangladesh--cool Levi jacket, that trademark curly hair, acoustic guitar....sounds great!"
1) "Well....."

There was a story in Rolling Stone (with clip) about Bob playing "Freebird" in Berkeley. Pretty funny.

If people want to appreciate modern day Bob, they better listen to...

"the mighty Rattlesnake label bring us two thrilling, brand new releases :
‘After The Empire’ is a 16 track studio outtakes CD of ideas that were recorded after the ‘Empire Burlesque’ album but were ultimately unreleased. This is made up of mostly new Dylan originals with the exception of one cover version. The running time of the CD is just over 70 minutes.
‘The 1985 Tour Rehearsals’ is two CDs of exactly that. Want to hear Dylan rehearse the Beatles with Tom Petty and The Queens Of Rhythm? Would you like to hear ‘That Lucky Old Sun’ and three versions of ‘Red Cadillac and Black Moustashe’? It’s all here"

Watching the mass exodus a few songs into the show is one of the highlights of the evening. Good riddance to the yo-yos who thought they were getting Bangla Desh Bob.

I really do love that about him. That when he's the folk god in 66 he does Like A Rolling Stone on that UK tour and the entire audience boos him. Then when you think he's still doing that by Bangladesh, he's back acoustic! You can't predict his movements, and it became foolish in 1970 to even try.

So a casual fan, or even a former hardcore fan that hasn't followed him in awhile, would recognize exactly two songs? I'm glad I saw him when I saw him. Twenty years ago.

Huge Dylan fan here and I have been A concert regular since the late 90's I'm 49 but grew up in the country so didn't get to a lot of concerts when I was young. Anyway I am very worried too about him performing at this festival. I would hope he would change it up from his shows the last few years but I doubt he will. Could get ugly.

"Could get ugly"...and just what do you expect to happen - a bunch of geriatrics hurling their diapers on stage?
