A Legend

[DarkWing6]

Just thought I'd let you guys know I just got back from an excellent show featuring the one and only Bob Dylan. Man was he amazing. 16 rows back on the floor. It's gonna be a while before I can top that experiance. Quite a show, but boy am I tired. Working at 5:30am on only a few hours of sleep and now I gotta be at work tomorrow at 6am. Well, hope some of you guys get to see him when he hits your town. Definately worth the $$. I'll try to post some crappy cell phone pics tomorrow.

I've been a big Dylan fan ever since a friend left a greatist hits CD in my car in highschool; which he didn't get back for some time. :) I'm up to 22 of his albums now!
I went to one show and had a similar experience, it's amazing! Putting a voice and performance with songs that started a new style in the early 60's is pretty powerful, IMO.

I will agree with Ken about Subterranean

favorites!
Series of Dreams
Things Have Changed
Changing of the Guards
Song to Woody
Shelter from the Storm
Thunder on the Mountain (Modern Times)

Nice to see others that appreciate his music/writing.

I caught Dylan live a few years ago at the City Stages Festival here in Birmingham.

He played the late afternoon time slot - just before a new band called "Evanesence". Anybody heard of 'em? :)

The chick singer from Evanesence kept talking about how blown away she was by Dylan. Dylan was pretty good live - he had just released the "Love and Theft" CD that year. I bought a copy after hearing some cuts on a road trip through Illinois that summer.

I had the Biograph 3CD compilation of Dylan probably before some of you were born.

Bob is amazing.

Tangled up in Blue
Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll
Masters of War

Some of my favorites.

I realized last night that he was a legend before I was born. Hahaha

Has any one seen the Scorsese (sp?) documentary about him? It's fucking awesome! They play it on PBS here sometimes.

I just saw Def Leppard last night @ the Hollywood Bowl, last week I saw Roger Waters play Dark Side Of The Moon for the first time in 30+ years @ the Hollywood Bowl (So far the best concert Ive been to hands down), I saw the Red hot Chilli Peppers for the 3rd time this year about a month back at the Forum, saw the Stones earlier this year and going again in November, saw Tom Petty 2 weeks ago at the Bowl, but have NEVER seen Bob Dylan!! Ive seen so many people, been to about 40 concerts in my life. Santana TONS of times, Moody Blues 3 times, Jeff Beck twice, Mick Taylor, Bee Gee's about 15 years ago, Peter Green @HOB, Tom Jones in Vegas, Ive seen 50 cent, Eminem twice, Art Laboe Oldies show concerts, Journey, AC/DC (GREAT concert) man I forget all the people Ive seen. haha Oh yeah......I saw Mariah Carey last week at the Pond on Sunday.... hey it was for my girl.

Red Hot Chili Peppers (partied with these guys after they played a show in Lexington in 1989 or 1990 - they came to a friend's house after the show and had a jam session)
KISS - waaaaay back when I was in 7th grade
Van Halen
Kinks

You saw The Police? Man Im not really into Sting but I think its the only time he was worth anything, and I saw the documentary that the drummer made from his home films (I forget his name right now FUCK), and I have a new respect for them. Andy's also cool. Did you see VH with Diamond Dave? either way, awesome. And back in those days RHCP was partying HARD. Hilell Slovak was still around?

Stewart Copeland is the drummer for the Police. And yes, I saw Van halen with David Lee Roth - the 1984 tour. Festival Seating with an open floor at HARA Arena in Dayton, Ohio - I was 13 at the time and we got in without tickets, and managed to squeeze our way up to the front, right in front of the stage. back in the day when you'd go to concerts and be guaranteed getting a contact high. . . . :-)

And Slovak was already gone when I met them.

[DarkWing6]

I haven't seen too many "big" bands.

Bob Dylan
Coldplay
Moddest Mouse
Franz Ferdinand
The Shins
The Killers (they played with someone else, not the band I went to see)
and a few others


I am waiting for Radiohead to come to town cause I really want to see them.
