It was 6:00 p.m. in Park City, Utah on Aug. 31. I was toward the back of a long line of people waiting to see Bob Dylan perform. I, like everyone else in the line, was incredibly excited to see the legend perform, but my excitement was somewhat hampered by the fact that it was raining, not just a little either. I'm talking about the kind of rain that made Noah build an ark.

Bob Dylan: Almost on fire

ASPEN — For a guy who has stripped away his old forms of expression — joking with the audience, playing guitar, offering up new songs that challenge our ways of thinking — Bob Dylan still has a way of communicating that his spirits are high, and that he can revel in being Bob Dylan.

OOOOH! How I wish I was here...

Dylan strolls onstage, gets on with it
August 21, 2008

Bob Dylan played it pretty straight at Copps Coliseum last night, before a respectably sized crowd in the concert bowl (there were a few patches of empty seats).

As straight as a guy can play it by his standards. He didn’t say a word to the crowd all night.

Not hello.

Not a thank you for the applause.

It was like we were married.

Here is a review with some of the songs he played :)
enjoy!

Don't think twice, Bob's alright
Bob Dylan performs at Convention Hall in Asbury Park
By Mark Voger, STAFF WRITER • August 15, 2008

It sounded historic, and it was: Bob Dylan at Convention Hall in Asbury Park.
Backed by a game and talented five-piece band, Dylan, 67, played for a little over two hours to a sold-out house on this comfortable evening. The Conventional Hall floor was packed with general-admission ticketholders.
