Bob Dylan in Zaragoza / Spain (all Shows)

23. JUNE 2008
Zaragoza / Spain - Feria de Muestras

Review by James Scott
I had even begun to suspect there was some problem with the show when just on 9:40pm Bob and the band stumbled on stage and launched straight in to “I’ll be your baby tonight.” Although the earlier part of the show was, I felt, a stronger performance than the latter part, at no point did it really take off. Songs 2-8 were the better half. On song 9, there was definitely a hint of a frog in Dylan’s throat and from there on the show lost momentum. Not that it was ever on fire. “Shelter from the storm” at no. 5 was probably the highlight. “Hard rain” seemed perfunctory when it came. Overall the sparkle of last night in Andorra just wasn’t there. Less harmonica. Less interaction with the band; much less. Bob was on a cloud of his own. Not that that precluded his perusal of the talent in the front row. Or maybe that was the weak point from the off. Both of artist and of show. Later, reflecting on the 2 shows in 2 nights, as well as deciding that,as a health precaution, never again would I stand so close to a set of rock music speakers 2 nights running, I was struck that in neither of the shows did Bob as much as break sweat.

Review by Antonio Terni
At 8 doors opened, we run very quietly to the first row and waited for the concert in a very nice mood. Bob opened with a song totally unknown to me: Oh Babe It ain't no Lie. A surprise but a good one. Tambourine and Masters led us to the most exciting part of the show, including Girl of the north Country and Hard Rain, both very moving and convincing. Tangled was obviously 6th but Blowin' was strangely 7th. The electric part began very well with Memphis and What good Am I while I was quite disappointed with Til I Fell and Make you Feel which I consider a waste of electricity. HW 61 as strong as ever closed the first part and the encores included Leopard (I lost my leopard scarf because of that) and a very nice version of It ain't Me Babe with a wonderfull harp solo. Maggie's Farm closed the concert and I think it is not the right song for that purpose. It makes you feel that something is missing somehow.
