(First time do not forget.
Bob Dylan opens La Seine Musicale, new auditorium for all musics on a small island in the Seine)

You mean you want Bob to throw it into the deep blue sea?

Any words from the stage (spoken by Bob) yet? It sounds (to me) that the place was elegant - hope all enjoyed the show!!

Very beautiful place, in the middle of the Seine.
Good sound, bad audience ("shake your jewellery") excellent concert, way better than yesterday.
More details soon.

That wouldn't be hard, I wasn't very complimentary towards the Zenith show and had to compare it to other shows I've been to that were so much better. I've been a bit scathing about Spirit On The Water over the years but his performance at the Zenith wasn't that bad. Compared to Things Have Changed, Stormy Weather, I Could Have Told You and even Don't Think Twice it was quite a good performance. I'm pleased that the performance was better than yesterday, it needed to be!

For me the Zenith concert was the better one of the Paris Shows. Maybe DesolatIon Row and Ballad were better in the second Show. I think it also depends on the place where you sit and the People are around you.
Audience in the Zenith were more enthuastic. The new Venue was very comfortable (much bettet seats than in the Zenith) Sound was brillant in both venues.
I think Bob sung a little bit better at the first night. But that's only nuances. Both Shows werecht GREAT

I agree that the sound was OK at the Zenith, for me that only highlighted the performances that were not so good. It may have been where I was sitting but as I was located quite near the mixing desk I think it should have been quite a good place to judge.

Just read a comment on FB that "He started H61 as Duquesne Whistle"
Should be interesting to hear that

No way. HW 61 starts with a LOUD drumbreak.
Between songs they check the tuning on each other, that may sound a bit like the DW intro

thanks triumph

Bob just wants the audience to keep telling him hes not over the hill and not past his prime.

Maybe to just give a spin to the hundreds of other Bob tunes available?

Quite agree, would love to hear Cold Irons Bound, Summer Days, Honest With Me, Not Dark Yet, Make You Feel My Love, Ain't Talkin', High Water, etc, etc!

I was the only one shouting "No!" in Hamburg

Let's say we could get it going that hundreds (or at least dozens) of audience members each night shout it... would Bob enjoy that or rather would he leave the song off the set?

He wouldn't care one way or the other.

So true. I wasn't there, I wish I could. Bob and architecture, what a beautiful subject to investigate.

My first time in Paris to see Bob was at the Theatre de Grand Rex, 1 february 1990. Amazing, I will never forget that concert. Bob was on fire, majestic and wild.

not a word was spoken - as usual!
