Expecting Rain

Hey, I'm heading for Düsseldorf - again. It's my fifth Bob show in that particular venue. And I'm wondering if the girl is still in the "family".

However, I already saw Bob twice this month in Copenhagen's amazing opera house. And - yeah, what can I say? He's still the best. They play the same songs again and again, but they play them so well.

Love, Andreas

Oh, boy! You're still not over it? I guess this show is perfect for you then.

Maybe this thread was the inspiration for the current set and the whole American standards project.

"Don't Stop Believin'"


Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train
Goin' anywhere

A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night

Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searching
In the night
Streetlight people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night

[Instrumental interlude]

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on
Streetlight people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'...


I hope Dylan continues his string of great shows in your fair city. Have a great time!

And tonight I will attend the show in Krefeld which is not far from Düsseldorf, just about 18 miles. Maybe there's this kind of slight change not only in location, but in the setlist as well. But I also appreciate the tightness they show playing the same stuff night after night.

I'd like to hear Bob sing "the best is yet to come" tonight. Please tell him if you see him.

Love
Andreas

P.S. yeah, I'm over the girl of course, but I'm not over Bob yet though it's kind of sad to see him struggle against aging

Sad? Bob’s blowing everyone else away. Including us.
Let’s just see how we are doing when we’re 70-something.

Anyhow, I hope you find her, Andreas. She’s out there.

Over the girl?????

I hope so, or this thread will be crucial evidence at the stalking trial.

No sign of stalking, no. Our hero has been respectful and decent, and I for one pray to see a happy ending. No pun intended.

Well, over the girl - sort of...

I know Bob is in extraordinary good shape but nonetheless we know that the upcoming touring years are countable now. See him tomorrow again.

Best
Andreas

I hope you’ve got your Düsseldorf 2019 Tour Opener tix.

It's time to put this to bed and close the thread.

put it to the big brass bed?
