I wish I could put my thoughts in a few sentences to describe how brilliant the performance was last night !!!! Fantastic would be an understatement for both Mark 's and Bob's.
First off, standing in line for a good 3 hours with the strong intention of getting to the front did pay off at the end. So, again last night, I secured a slightly less perfect spot than the night before at the front next to the rail. Another fun thing about going to Geneal Admission is you get to engage in conversations with perfect strangers who share your passions in music. Everbody feeds of everybody's else. Let me tell you, I've taked with countless numbers of Dylan's get a lifers, who just couldn't stop praising Mark and the band for the briliant performance last night. It was vibrantly full of energy, at some points riveting.
I'm talking about Marbletown when John and Glen faced off on their instruments.
The auditorium was completely filled up with happy faces as far away as my eyes could see. The thunderous roars and vigorous cheers from fans across every age spans could be heard miles and miles away.
I have the recordings both audio and video to proove my case. You sometimes forget how wonderful the shows you saw the previous nights, weeks , years were , until you listen to them again. That's just what I did when I got up this morning. Die-hard Dylan's fans many of whom I struck up conversations with simply couldn't stop marvelling about Mark's guitar performance . Many said they could just listen to it all night long. It couldn't be further from the truth. Many neutral concert goers I talked with whole hearted embracing Mark's music over Dylan's. That made me really happy.
Mark got out a guitar last night that was shiny grey. I don't remember which song. I don't think I've ever seen it before. I have to go back to the video to see which song he played on it last night.
OK. Highlight of the show last night had to be "Kindom of Gold" I like the song a lot on the album. Mark nailed it last night "LIVE" It was soooo sensational , it moved me to tears. ( I've never been to MK's concerts where I don't cry!)
"Kingdom of Gold" did it for me !!!!!
To sum it up. It was a fabulous show ! loades of energy. They were all on fire. Excellent synergy between Mark and the band. The crowds really loved it when Ian came out with the washboard. It was fun !
Ladies : Mark fitted himself last night with same attire. Black jeans, black T, Black shirt. Did I forgot to say he had on a pair of brown Quality Shoes.
I did manage to record this show from beginning to end audio and video . Great sound quality on audio. You guys will love it. It has to be next week when I get round to sort all my tapings. I have 2 more shows to go to . Tonight and tomorrow.
Dylan's show was so enjoyable and extremely fun. The band was in high gear so was Bob last night. He smiled , he pranced around, banged away on the piano in between the harmonica. The crowds went absolutely wild. There was no end to all the dancing, and screaming. It was so rejuvenating, it made you feel like you are in your teens again. He rocked the night away that was for sure. I absolutely had a tremendous time hanging out with cool Dylan's folks.
Contrary to all the nonsense of press reviews of people walked away from Dylan's, I didn't see that happened, not around me. Who knows ??
