Saw Bob in Winnipeg : ) I really loved this show. In fact, I'm having a hard time letting go of it. Feels a lot like being lovesick. Bob is just living, breathing art, isn't he?
After reading some reviews, I feel sorry for people who go to see him with certain expectations or requirements, and miss the experience of just enjoying what he lays down on the canvas. Always new and raw and real, perfect even in it's imperfection. I always feel like I've been taken somewhere, then set back down on the ground. Only this must have been a really good show because I haven't come down yet. I'm hoping it will last all week : )
This idea that Bob owes us something more than his songs should be let go of. We don't need to be talked to. We need the music, don't you see? Isn't it enough that he tours constantly to bring us these amazing evenings? Just staying in my own area, I've been able to see him 15 times since 1987, and I've even missed some opportunities. He makes himself available more than anybody I know of, to the people who love him. I think that speaks way more about his regard for us than any words possibly could.
Thanks, Bob, for being true to yourself, and for always reminding me to do the same. Wish I could be there again tonight.

mmmmhmm yea i think i could juss be happy if all i did was follow bob around and went to all his shows for years. really to tell u the truth i cant remember much of anything after the show is over i juss remember that it felt good. afterwards it all seems kind of dream like, like i went to another world and lost my memories before i returned to earth. like i have been mindfreaked. but i sure do remember some fine handsome blue eyed man.
Whew!
That's exactly what it feels like! Glad you understand. I was starting to feel a little weird walking through the day on this echo-y auditorium plain, but I guess it's just the power of Bob and I shouldn't be alarmed : )
Yes he is. I felt that way
Yes he is.
I felt that way once after a show in Springfield IL. I feel like that show is still going one, with the sound still hanging in the air.
I also agree that people should just take it all in rather than trying to shape into something else.
Let Bob be Bob. He rarely disappoints.
