Beat me to it Martha! Good show, no earth shattering new song, band was rockin' and had great seats to see Bob's little dance steps. Could even see him smiling. No photos as the Photo police were in full force..even with cell phones!!
My first time for Working Man Blues. Absolutely loved Things Have Changed and Ain't Talkin was dancin' fun!
A fun evening for sure

I had my hand on my cell phone whilst the show was going down hoping I might get a ring from you sister. I pretty much knew it wouldn't be possible to get any photos. Bob doesn't want those flashes going off. Heck, at the second Red Rocks show, I was in the 5th row Bob's side hanging a pen light from my teeth so I could see to keep the set and one of the ushers came over and told me they (Bob's people) wanted it turned OFF pronto!
I got yelled at by Bob. LOL
I've asked my Witch Doc to call me at tomorrow's show in Cincy. Hearing Bob on my 50th would be heaven to me.
I am so glad you had those great seats Meg. " Ain't Talkin'" is one I am keeping my fingers crossed for. It's still my favorite song on Modern Times. I think I've spun that CD over 200 times by now. I never tire of it.
Watched "Masked & Anonymous" with my Mother this morning, which is the way I go to church. :-) It just get's better and better.
Anyone here going to see him at the Taft tomorrow?
xxoo,

Hope you get Ain't Talkin"..really great, Martha !! I got the "police" in my face three times telling me to "put it away" just trying to call you guys so you could hear a little Bob!!! These minimum wage concert workers were taking their jobs WAY too seriously!!! They should have been spending time listening to Bob....

That 'Other Side of the Mirror' Newport film was fantastic. Some amazing footage, much of which I'd never seen before.
Great to see what was the first ever live performance of 'Like A Rolling Stone' preserved on film for all time.

OK it is too early in the morning to tax my half awake mind...
"The answer to this question is currently unknown, however, it is commonly known that most brown bears are Protestant, making it highly unlikely that this bear is a Catholic. Although he does generally keep with the Lenten tradition of fish on Fridays, so maybe he is Catholic. An even more important question is, 'Is the bear a Catholic in the woods?'
Zombie Pope John Paul II (allegedly a dude) carried out extensive fecal analysis of samples of New England forestry. Later analysis demonstrated the presence of Christ's body in bears' fecal matter, conclusively proving that the bear is, in fact, Catholic. Or else that it ate Catholics in the woods. Or that it had been eaten by Catholics and resurrected. Whatever, the results were transubstantial.
But the more important question, of course, is given a neutral playing field, i.e. a swimming pool deep enough for a shark to swim yet shallow enough for the bear to stand, who would win in a fight between a bear and a shark?
Cecil famously declared in 1982 that all brown bears were in fact a curious hybrid of Lutherans and Methodists"

Someone in the online Dylan community has worked out that apparently last night's show in Dayton, Ohio was the 2,000th show of Dylan's Never Ending Tour which started in Concord, CA way back on 7th June 1988.
Quite staggering when you realise that the Stones - who have been around for the same length of time - only played the 2,000th show of their entire career in August 2006.

I had no idea this was the 2,000 show since 1988. Wow! And to think it happened at The Nut House, of all places.
Unfortunately not a lot of people attended it. Here's a review from Pagel's site:
Review
Dayton, Ohio
Wright State University
Nutter Center
October 16, 2007
[David Moore]
Review by David Moore
My personal oddessy of 5 consecutive shows in 7 nights: Day 3 - Dayton OH,
10/15/07 - The EJ Nutter Center @ Wright State University (basketball
arena).
Another minimal-traveling backyard show, that is if consider your backyard
to be a plague-infested dirty swampland. I hate Dayton... always have,
and always will. Sorry to any natives out there, but your city sucks.
First and foremost, Dayton let Dylan down tonight. Where was everybody
at? For a show on yet another college campus (which is great idea by the
way), the place was bare except for the floor area down below. He's had a
great run of playing to absolutely packed houses lately, and the final
swing of the October run will surely be no different. Tonight will have
to go down as the worst attended stop of Fall 2007... happy Dayton? Maybe
that's why I'm kinda aggravated, I just hate it when Bobby has to walk out
to only 1,500 souls in the audience... just kinda makes me cringe.
Secondly, I don't know where they get all these fake fruitcake security
frauds with their damn yellow shirts and flashlights. In no other city is
security as overbearing as Dayton. I was unjustly harrassed numerous
times, and I didn't appreciate it. I wasn't bothering anybody... I didn't
have a rifle or rocketlauncher on me - but they sure acted like it if you
dared to touch even your cell phone. Sorry about all the negativity...
there was actually a great show being played there too of course.
Tonight was simply an awesome all-around show. The setlist had a few
twists, and all of the arrangements were great. I found myself quite
enjoying certain songs that I never particulary cared for live... one of
those kind of nights. Highlights would have to be "It Ain't Me, Babe",
"Love Sick", "The Levee's Gonna Break", "High Water (For Charlie Patton)",
"My Back Pages", "Summer Days", and "Masters Of War". This was the first
time that I ever caught "Pages" live, and therefore heard how it's being
arranged nowadays. It was really something, probably the coolest piece of
the evening. "Masters" was strange in that Bobby got back on guitar for
it, being song #14 and the last one before the encores. Bill says that it
was reported that Bobby's keyboards suddenly brokedown, so he just picked
up the guitar instead. The guitar may not have even been turned on... it
could have been just a touch of showmanship to save an akward moment.
Good stuff.
The other pieces weren't "lowlights" tonight, as everything honestly
sounded really good. They just weren't quite "highlights". You had
"Rainy Day Women #12 & 35", "Watching The River Flow", "Spirit On The
Water", "Things Have Changed", "Workingman's Blues #2", "Highway 61
Revisited", "Nettie Moore", "Thunder On The Mountain", and "All Along The
Watchtower".
Costello was back after a night off, and Amos Lee introduced some new
songs into his setlist. This really was a great show, just too bad again
that noone was there to see it. Those had to be the smallest seats I've
ever encontered... I mean everyone was on top of everyone. If I started
clapping, the two guys next to me were guaranteed to get elbowed in the
ribs. And the heat in that place...
Oh well, off down I-75 now about 160 miles or so to Louisville... hope to
see you there in about 17 hours.
I think Ratdog has covered it, but I need to check with Jaxx for confirmation.
Jerry Garcia was quite known for his covers of "Senor" with the JGB...it was in most JGB shows 1987-1995. That is why Ratdog plays it---Bob Weir is definitely carrying Jerry's torch as well as his own....
btw, the bootlegs (I got the spring and summer tours last month) reveal Dylan's keyboard is WAY up in the mix and he's playing much more of the thing

Thanks lotsajizz.
He sure is, and he fried it in Dayton, maybe in honor of the 2,000th show. LOL

I know,Love, isn't he just???
I read an article by an anthropologist a few years ago which explained the general attraction of bottoms to men. It stems from the times when primitive man used to copulate with primitive woman from behind.It explained that the larger the size, the bigger the attraction, and , biologically speaking, the more healthy and fertile the woman was to guarantee his DNA being spread.
Apparently, penises were longer then, too. Which also explains black men's willies being longer, as black women have a genetic tendency towards large bottoms....
This little piece of anthropological wisdom promises a wide array of future threads...
Do you think we can ask Voodoo to install a special programme that forwards ANY of Gazza's posts directly onto the Anal Sex thread???? And to let us hear a bottom-related song while we read it?????....
I've been logging in very infrequently, and mainly from work, where the PC is on mute. But a few days ago I checked it out on my laptop at home, and literally fell off my chair laughing....

The anal sex thread would have topped 500 weeks ago if Voodoo added all Gazza's "commentary" from other threads....

PS: And, dear Martha, please excuse Gazza's apalling puerile behaviour, he can't help himself, bless him.....Every Tuesday evening he goes to the Belfast AOA Group, but since the very first time he got up in front of the group and said loud and clear "My name is Gazza and I am Arse Obsessed" his progress has been rather slow....We'll just have to bear with him one day at a time, methinks....
