Saw Bob Dylan last night
Unfortunately we had to travel into a red state to hear him.

3. Bob Talk?
Dylan has about the worst stage presense of any performer I've ever seen. He comes out. Sits at his keyboard and growls for an hour and a half. At the end of the show, he introduces the band in what closely resembles English.

4. Funny that, yet we
still go to hear him. I saw him a few years ago when he was on tour with Paul Simon. We figured out a couple of the songs he was doing but mostly they all sounded the same. Still....he is Dylan and I am glad I finally had the chance to see him.

5. I saw him at Penn State about 23 years ago.
Horrible, horrible concert. It was in his gospel days. We walked out after 4 songs. Couldn't understand a word he said or sang.

6. I was lucky enough to work his show here about 2 years ago
That was the first time I got a chance to see him and I really liked the show. I didn't get to see much of him on stage, mostly I was on the side of the stage, but I did get a chance to stand right next to him..lol. Goofy I know, but he is a legend.

7. It was cool seeing a legend like that.
I've said for years, Bob can't sing, play the guitar or the harmonica. But he's one of the greatest songwriters of our generation.
