44 years after the last time, I saw Bob Dylan tonight. Moving.

@johnjohnston Fantastic, I'm so glad you went to see Bob again!! My friend in Cambridge saw him recently too, I think in London, and really loved it. What song was your favorite one at the show? Did you have good seats so you could see Bob well? 🎶 🎶 Ron 🎶 🎶

@Ron seat, clear view from back of stalls. Harder to answer favourite song. Lots of good stuff mostly from latest album. Surprised by how good Key West was. Band very tight. "You go your way" great imo.

@johnjohnston Outstanding, thanks for details. Key West was a great surprise on the album too. I spent months in terrible heat in FL, so never wanted to go back. But that song had me wanting to visit Key West!

I'm pretty sure I never got to see Bob do "You go your way". I would have found it great too, because Blonde on Blonde is a huge favorite of mine. Wow!!

"Band very tight" is a perfect description! 🎶 🎶

@Ron @johnjohnston I was lucky enough to sit fifth row center at a Dylan concert in March/April 1966 just months before his motorcycle accident. He played his "standards" and new songs from his Blonde On Blonde LP.
Though later I think "Lay Lady Lay" youtu.be/LhzEsb2tN... and Hurricane" youtu.be/bpZvg_FjL... are my favorite Bob Dylan songs.

@Iquitoz Attending a 1966 BoB concert would have been awesome. I became aware of Bob in Oct or Nov 1966 and he was not touring by then and we didn't know whether he ever would again. So we played all his albums over & over. We had no idea how prolific he would end up being!! 🎶
