I just wish he'd go back to playing guitar at his shows...

This is not say that Dylan's show wasn't perfectly entertaining. Seeing him on the arena stage, dressed in black with a hat that was a cross between a fedora and an Amish going-to-services hat, and backlit in red with a red curtain behind him, Dylan struck an unforgettable pose.

i really do hope that, like an aging boxer past his prime, unwilling or unable to hang up the gloves, dylan doesn't become something of a "caricature" of himself

i saw him a couple of years ago in concert (first time) and despite my love of his music, was not overly satisfied with his concert performance...

i don't know if was me, or the crowd surrounding me, or the heightened expectation that left me feeling somehow cheated....but i have to admit the experience did not live up to *my* expectations....

there seemed to be a certain 'roteness' to the performance...

but honestly, i'm really not sure what the heck i was expecting in reality, some kind of metaphysical experience?
