Bob Dylan in St. John´s / Newfoundland

Review by Dennis Manning
There were many highlights that make this a special weekend. My daughter Dawn, who lives here, surprises us with two Dylan tunes on the piano and perfect vocal - I feel the torch passing. Then she brings out a birthday cake that she has made for Bob-we are to deliver it to his hotel! The concerts were great. I agree with earlier comments - it really doesn't matter what songs are in the set list - they all sound great and there is something in each one that brings a smile to your face or someone sitting next to you. But we especially enjoyed Lay lady lay, Desolation row, Ballad of Hollis Brown, Masters of War, Ain't Talking, Love Sick and It's Alright Ma. On the first night we were sat on the left side and had a good view of Bob - he did his little dance (ya it could have been a little bit of a newfie jig) and seemed to be enjoying the crowd. For the birthday show - a full house - we were sat on the right side, opposite that end of the stage and very close - but Bob's back was to us all night.
... There were a few birthday signs that showed up in the audience -but no acknowledgement from Bob. We tried for a second encore - but it didnot happen - not for lack of trying.

Review by Justin Bowman
Desolation Row. I looked toward my friend to the right of me and just said "what the f**k.... oh my god!" Ever since I first started listening to Dylan at age 14, this has always been one of my favorites. And what a performance.. I was in awe. Just like Things Have Changed, I sang every word, along with Bob. I began thinking "this is the best thing I've ever seen... Dylan still f**kin got it man". They nailed it man. Right on the money, perfect. Honest With Me came next, an up beat tune from Love And Theft, which got the crowd moving, although not as much as I would have liked (I was probably the craziest person in my row.) The intro of the next song was the highlight of the concert in my opinion. Just Like A Woman, definitely one that all the Newfoundlanders were waiting to hear. People around me were really getting into it, and singing along with every word, especially on the chorus. Outstanding performance on this one. I've heard a lot of great versions of the song (Original, Live 66, Bangladesh, Before The Flood etc.), but I'm not kidding this was really up there with them. He's not just some washed up rock star, this guy can still f**ing play, and damn good too. The next song was easily recognizable from it's intro, Love Sick. Excellent version.
