Live Review Ain't Talkin' - Last Night's Bob Dylan Show in Brief

- When I say this was taken with my iPhone, I mean I'm sorry.
Bob Dylan didn't have much to say last night at the Rose Garden Memorial Coliseum. He went through his set with a lot of joy, smiling often despite the dark overtones of his stage lighting. His band was all dressed in black, but as far as I could tell Dylan was the only one wearing track pants.
It was a mix of old and new, with the majority of the songs coming from his recent, and good, Together Through Life. The highlight of the show came during "Spirit on the Water" from Modern Times, when Dylan sang "You think I'm over the hill/you think I'm past my prime/well, let me see what you got".
What I gathered to be the set list, after the jump:
1. Leopard Skin Pill-box Hat
2. Lay Lady Lay
3. Things Have Changed
4. Tweedle Dum And Tweedle Dee
5. Sugar Baby
6. You Go Your Way And I'll Go Mine
7. My Wife's Hometown
8. Spirit On The Water
9. Cold Irons Bound
10. Working Man's Blues #2
11. Highway 61
12. Ain't Talkin'
13. Thunder On The Mountain
14. Ballad Of A Thin Man
Encore:
1. Like A Rolling Stone
2. Jolene
3. All Along The Watchtower
