My wife and I attended tonight here in El Paso. Very good concert. He opened with Things have Changed-my favorite. I had never heard "Long and Wasted Years". I liked it-kind of a country sounding piece. The dude didn't say a word to the crowd, but, I think that is just his style. He came in (on time) and began playing one after another.

I think it's funny that he won the Nobel Peace Prize recently, and they have been trying to contact him, and he just isn't responding.

They just need to tell him it's the "tambourine man" calling and I bet he takes the call......

Awesome! Always wanted to see him. I heard his shows are good but he gets all political at times. Sounds like he left the politics at the door and put on a good show for everyone.

I saw Dylan in Austin in 1965 at the old coliseum. Very good show, and he didn't talk much then either.

I couldn't remember whether it was '65 or '66 so I looked it up before posting and found out that that was the 1st concert that The Band, or most of them anyway played with him.

Sort of related: Anybody else see Robert Planet on ACL? Musically, I think better than in the 70's. The only old rocker I think has improved.

I don't really like much of his after Zeppelin stuff, except for "Ship of Fools" and "Big Log". Those two are excellent
 
The ACL show was largely Zeppelin, but even better backup. His voice is amazing.
