Bob Dylan concert reviews and tour history

with The Band - just like The Last Waltz. Aerosmith as backup band. My first concert.

It was a great experience. Some friends and I drove to Atlanta from Auburn University. The songs were mainly from the Freewheeling album. I was surprised at how much feeling he could convey with his voice using guitar chords that everyone knew. After the performance, he stayed to talk with members of the audience. I believe his brother was with him and there was a striking resemblance . Dylan said that his next stop would be New Orleans. Another thing was that he had a spoon capo which he said that he made when he had no money.
I don`t think he actually used it to play though. Maybe it was a warmup routine. I would rate it a 10.

It was a great concert. It wasn't crowded so you could get up in front of the scene easily. He played fabulous!

I had finished my Junior year in high school in 1964 when I attended the Aug 1, 1964 Bob Dylan concert at the Waikiki Shell. My girlfriend and I had the cheapest tickets, cs. $2.75 each, and we're sitting in the grass a light rain started falling and there weren't many people at the concert, so Bob Dylan told us all to come down closer. Thus, we got to sit in the spprox 2nd row right in front of Dylan he had on a buckskin jacket and his harmonica on a stand around his neck. It was a wonderful concert which I have never forgotten. I bought all his albums from those years and many years later bought the CDs. My son texted me from the East Coast early this morning to tell me the great news about Dylan receiving the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature. I was "stoked" as we would have said in 1964 Honolulu. It is richly deserved! Way to go, Bobby!

I was at this concert ..... The first set was all acoustic and then after intermission, Dylan came back with THE BAND ... It was amazing !! More than half the audience left because they were die-hard folkies and thought that he had sold out for going electric. Man they MISSED OUT !!!

Probably the best concert I've ever been to. It was like two concerts in one. The first part Dylan played solo for better than an hour. No introduction or nothing said between songs. He left the stage, and some of the audience left too. I don't know if they thought it was over, or were protesting his move to electric. He returned shortly with his band and rocked on for again over an hour. Encore was Positively Fourth Street followed by Like A Rolling Stone. He sounded great that night, and I knew then (I was only 17) that he was truly a musical force .

This was my first Dylan concert and I was probably too young, 15, to really appreciate what he was doing at the time. Dylan was in a hurry in the early 90's and true to from he played most songs differently than how the songs appeared on the his albums. And he played them fast. Every once in while I would catch a lyric and know what song it was. Again, I was too young to understand it and I left a little confused as to what I just saw. At 15 I just knew that it was cool even if I didn't get it. I'd like to listen to the set with a new set of ears now that it has been 25 years.

Dylan was at his best! His voice was wonderful, so clear, and the band was great. The setlist was a perfect mix of Shadows, Tempest and other new albums, with a few old songs. Dylan seemed to be amused and he did this funny walks on stage, made me laugh.
