    I new every song apart from 3 that i hadnt heard before, i guess some poeple dont get it.


    Well I guess you sort of become used to his way of performing after a while and can kind of predict what he's going to play. But sometimes he makes it pretty impossible to me.

    So, do you think it could be possible he covered Better man?

    "...Dimitri...He talks to me...'.."The Ghost of Greece..".
    "..That's One Happy Fuckin Ghost.."

    All right, I didn't get you were referring to the actual show earlier on and I was simply making my general comments. Thanks for specifying that. We can all live in peace now ;)

    No shit. If some mediocre hack that is just trying to make a name for himself like BOB DYLAN wants to cover Pearl Jam...fuck him. Who does he think he is? BOB DYLAN? No. He's just a chump named BOB DYLAN.
  • wow. im ashamed to say that for 1/2 a second I thought this may have been true. then I came to my senses. Bob woulda picked a better PJ song than Betterman!! C'mon!! If the OP is not trying to play a joke on all of us, then i'd say cut him some slack. Cuz in all honesty...He was just probably mistaken. How many of the songs that Bob plays live now can you actually recognize?? I was one of the lucky ones who saw Bob in 04 during one of his "ramblings" shows :lol: Took me 1/2 way through the song to realize he was playing Ballad of a Thin Man.

    here in lies the sheer brilliance of bob
    he is a master of rearranging his own songs
    that is why he is a genius
