Bob Dylan 970411 in Durham, New Hampshire
Subject: UNH show From: Joshua (jhunter@tiac.net) Date: Sat, 12 Apr 1997 00:57:16 -0400 Here's what I remember... - Great cowboy motif...the bolo really worked - Although Bob had trouble with the high notes, he sounded great! - Silvio rocked, I mean rocked (even had a little jam in there that seemed to hint at other songs, perhaps a Grateful Dead type-thing?) - Lenny Bruce? Wow, that surprised me, but of course I haven't seen him in 4 years... - Rainy day was especially cool, that is until some bone-head jumped on stage and decided to hug Bob (Dylan, for his part, didn't seem to care, apparently neither did security since the guy remained on stage for a least 2 minutes) - I went with 3 other people who had never been before, they basically said the same thing, "I was surprised at how good he sounded" (I think they were expecting much worse) and on how impressive his guitar playing was (I agree). Basically they had a good time, and were very impressed (it didn't hurt that we had good seats either) - Lots of young people, lots of Hippie/Grateful Dead types - A diverse crowd of people none-the-less Had a great time and I am so glad I went! Off to bed, Goodnight! Joshua Boston
