Hey Bob Dylan.....

Stop blocking your old stuff on Youtube. because I went to one of your concerts a few weeks ago...and you really need to let young people know what you sounded like before you couldn't sing anymore.

As a longtime Dylan admirer, it was a painful experience.

and it took him about 15 minutes. He blasted through what seemed like 30 songs total in less than an hour. He was touring with Merle Haggard. It was a very unusual show.

Hey,
I'm a huge fan and have seen him live about 20 times, among those, some have been great, some have been bad, however, the last few have been bad. I think the Neverending Tour should sadly come to an end. He sounds really rough on Tempest, but I am still digging some of the songs a lot. Especially the tribute to John Lennon, Roll on John and the title track.

His stuff has been wiped pretty clean off youtube. There used to be some really good stuff from not too many years ago.

Peace

and it wasn't a good show (I've seen him 6 or 7 times). I felt the same way when I saw him about 3 years ago, so I think I'm done spending my hard-earned dollars on Dylan concerts, even though I've been a huge fan for nearly 40 years.
