Concert #15:2011.10.26, Olympiahalle M

[Mr Young at Heart]

Sonny is a highlight of the show!

LE

Totally agree.   

[Jana]

dg??
Donegan's Gone??

yes

really gut version with this nice new intro and Ian has done a good job on the drums.

I love Privateering, wich I kept in my mind and sung on the way home.
And wonderful Sailing to Philadelphia

Jana, yes, I like what you say about the atmosphere making the whole thing good, it does raise the enjoyment, even if you are not a particular fan.    

In mosts concerts I go to, the atmosphere does give me a kick, feels like I need that boost from time to time

Next boost is Bellowhead and I haven't seen them before

I read a first review about Munich and it was a very good one - "Dylan enthuses Munich". It was said that, compared to Oberhausen, where obviously hundreds of people left the venue, the Munich audience was celebrating and rushing to the stage and that both Bob and Mark made a great impression and a very good three hour show...

There is another review about Munich in the SZ ...

http://www.sueddeutsche.de/muenchen/bob-dylan-in-muenchen-ein-richtig-gutes-schlechtes-konzert-1.1174465

Unbelievable what some journalists write ...

- how could the lyrics made this concert from BD to an experience ? ... it was impossible to understand his words, if ever only fragments
- and his voice  .... was horrible, really horrible
- MK was only support-act for Dylan 
- MK entered the stage and tinkled a bit in the background 
- not all people celebrated BD ... there were also (like Oberhausen, etc. ) hundreds of people leaving the venue early.

I have seen a very good 1,5 hour show ... made by Mark Knopfler and band.

Hi, Joko! Yeah, strange review. He also hasn't got his figures right, I think there were more than 8500 people?

Guy was talking about nearly 14000. My sister reported she has never seen the Olympiahalle that packed and had the suspicion that there were a lot of people with very well copied false tickets? She has heard rumours about it obviously today. A lot of people standing?

Mark and band were fabulous ... from the beginning to the end. Perhaps highlighting imho Donegans gone, Marbletown and Speedway.
Though I missed more than one new song (i.e. corner beef city or haul away) this show belongs to the best one I attended so far.

I wonder why MK played this time only 3 songs with BD, whilst he did 4 in Oberhausen and 5 in Mannheim.
Is there something wrong ?

I was thinking about this today and I thought that maybe it was because they had a five hour drive to Leipzig after the show and needed to leave earlier than the other shows.   I'm probably wrong, but who knows.

Well, Bob is Bob, remember?

Yes, there must have been more than 8500 people ... but I dont know if 14000 is correct, though Guy should have a reliable source. I have also never seen the Olympiahalle so packed. False Tickets ? That can't be denied. I was first row and with the beginning of the BD show on the one seat left from mine quite suddenly sat two people ! Unbelievable ... but the security did nothing.
A lot of people standing?
After the stage run a lot of people were standing on the seats.

[Love Expresso]

Thanks, Joko, nice to have a report from a "eye witness"... And could you tell me: Was Donegan sounding any different to the last tour, especially the intro?

False Tickets ? That can't be denied.

Weren't they scanned?
Normaly each time a barcode has been scanned the ticket's id is stored in a database. If a second tix with same id is scanned it ought to be rejected.

They were not scanned.
