You get a gold star if you had A Rainy Night in Soho on your set list card.

The 'unknown blues song' is called 'Axe and the Wind' by Willie Dixon, recorded by George 'Wild Child' Butler.

we're going tonight, looking forward.

Looks like it was a real Garden Party....

Willie Mctell.....

noice 

17 songs.

I believe that is the most songs he's played at any of his Outlaw appearances to date. 

Interesting as always. I wonder what the band thinks, and how much they sound check/practice the arrangements? At some moments hardly anyone else is playing, Don't think twice/Desolation, Simple twist, were examples of this. Garden Party cover, interesting...

There was an Owl flying over the crowd and show a few times, both during Bob and Willie.

Willie was either sick, or not well. He was blowing his nose most of his set and had little singing energy. Anyhoo...still had moments. 

go to the show.

the end of Billy's set he was joined by Sierra Hull who I wanted to see but we just missed her set. traffic sucks. The tandem of the 2 youngsters was really good and I thought was the best segment of music that night, and I'm not fully on the Billy bus.

 

Audio of Dylan's Hollywood Bowl set. It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry was the highlight for me.

Great B-Day show.  Bob's voice was strong and clear last night. Which is good because you could hardly see him on the darkened stage, no screens, and what seemed to be only four candles for stage lighting.

I was also wondering if he rearranges the songs each night, but the All Along the Watchtower was almost identical to the one he played with Billy in Napa (except no Billy last night).   Have to assume that is the case for the other songs he repeats on this tour.  Otherwise, his band would go bonkers trying to follow what he was doing.    

Just 7 songs @ the George. Cut short due to high winds.

Billy...Willie, Bob... all timers

...& always good to see some Willie Dixon in a setlist

A few from the Gorge:

Did Willie play at all? I left once they cleared the stage and made the people in front stage leave their seats.
