Slightly less boring than the album.

Yes

I'm sure I've just seen/heard Vic do this on a rerun of Shooting Stars...

Even at his worst...

..he still sounds better than the teeth gnashingly awful Tom Waits.

Nice Version...

... quite different from the album just released.

I see here http://www.boblinks.com/070409s.html that he played Yankee Doodle Dandy as his first song last night.

Well,

although I'm not necessarily in agreement with Shane on this one, it makes a pleasant change from the obsession with *Dylan* exhibited ad nauseam on this site.

Yes, he was great once, but really...

It's called comparison, Tony..

..you must have heard of it.
Dylan and Cave are working in similar areas, no?
It just amuses me that sooo many people spend time bemoaning the fact that Dylan can't sing, yet leave people like Waits and Cave alone.Neither of them can sing for toffee in my book.
Obsession? Nah..I'm only obsessed with Gretsch guitars.

Just for the record

I'm a Bobcat, but I like to think that I still have some objectivity. I think that Modern Times was Dylan's best album since Desire. I think that Together Through Life, while not being his worst, is the most boring Bob Dylan album that I have ever heard.

Forgetful Heart and Dylan

Forgetful Heart sounds ok, pretty good even, but there's probably one song from every performance that's up to this standard (Something in Liverpool being excellent). The problem is that there are usually 15 or so other performances each night which aren't as good which tends to be a bit annoying, epecially when there's £300,000+ in ticket sales at each venue.

"most of the songs aren't

even as good as this" we are talking really small beer then.

Whatever next, Bob ....?

Forgetful Heart ... excellent performance; nice harmonica, too. But, hey, we move on ... I'm grooving now to his Yankee Doodle Dandy atCoveleski Stadium, South Bend, Indiana, two days ago ... There's no stopping the man, New World Symphony to start, whatever next ...
