Bob Dylan completed his three night run at United Palace Theater in NYC - night 3 setlist

Bob Dylan & band @ United Palace Theatre (on night 1) (wflines)
Dylan

"...this was the first show I've seen since guitarist Charlie Sexton rejoined the band. The setlist was phenomonal: they opened [night three] with a hard rocking, swagger heavy "Gonna Change My Way Of Thinking" (from Slow Train Coming), followed by a loose "The Man In Me" (from New Morning, and also used in the opening credits of The Big Lebowski). The fans loved the semi-obscure picks. Then he played my favorite song from my favorite album of 2009: "Beyond Here Lies Nothing" from Together Through Life. He also played "Jolene" and "My Wife's Home Town" from that album, all of which were great. Dylan is such a '60s icon, and of course he has nearly five decades of material to draw from, I'm glad he still plays so much recent music, which shows his continued relevance: the album he drew from the most was 2006's Modern Times: "Thunder On The Mountain," "When The Deal Goes Down," "Workingman's Blues #2" and "Ain't Talkin'." He played my favorite song from 2001's "Love & Theft," "High Water (For Charlie Patton.)" And I was glad he hit one of my favorites, "Cold Irons Bound," from 1997's Time Out Of Mind. Over 50% of the show was from the past 12 years, which I think is awesome. As you know, I consider Bob to be one of the best artists of the '00s." [No Expiration]

Bob Dylan played his third show in a row at United Palace Theatre in NYC on Thursday night (11/19). It was also the last show of his current tour. The setlist varied night to night. You can see Tuesday's HERE, Wednesday's HERE, and Thursday's, along with a widget for his new Christmas album and a video from the first night, below...

A Tree With Roots is so good. Gives you the complete 100 song+ Basement Tapes experience plus the much improved sound quality. They were so great when they played together. Just such an energy on stage like the Last Waltz.... brilliant!

Normally don't like Ballad of a Thin man, but last night's version was real impressive, the whole set was. Fiery playing from Charlie and fine singing from Bob.

Man in Me was awesome.

God-Awful Hip-Hop Version of Dylan Song Means Well, says Pepsi-Cola

The Nexus of the Universe—According to representatives of the popular soft drink, Pepsi-Cola, hip-hop artist, Will.I.Am., doesn’t mean any harm to the folks who feel as if his version of the Bob Dylan classic, “Forever Young,” is atrocious and unlistenable. In fact, Pepsi suggests that he actually is expressing his good intentions towards... »

"You can't steal from a Jew. They invented it."

Another inane, cowardly anti-semitic remark from a complete fucking loser. Congratulations on this being the highlight of your year.

Thanks for the link, Brooklyn Vegan, I dig your blog (and radio show on SIRIUS XMU) as well. I've been hesitant to spend money on Dylan shows (as opposed to Dylan albums) but this one changed my mind. Tomorrow I'm going to check out Ray Davies - I was also worried that I'd be disappointed with him, but some west coast folks say that his current tour - with a choir (which sounds like a goofy idea) - is great.
