The writer here gives props to JM, CB.
Lefty (you so rock!) thank you for the arrow point to this article I’m finding, through past reviews and tweets, (yes, tweets 😀 ) JM (and his band) have been receiving very postive remarks on this tour. I would guestimate about 90 percent positive. It’s actually quite refreshing to see!
Yesterday, while perusing the streets of Gatlinburg (vacation), I noticed a music store with a lot of cool show posters in the window. The one that caught my eye was Johnny Cash, June 25,1986 at Radio City Music Hall with special guests Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, and Kris Kristofferson. Tickets were $15. Bob and Willie apparently have been hanging for many years on the show circuit,

ParticipantI’m with you, tnt…this song almost brings tears to my eyes, and believe it or not, for being a person of the female persuasion, I don’t cry that often 😯

I subscribed to a mailing list to receive alerts for presales and such.

ParticipantTom, are those Chicago shows going to work for you?
I have fingers crossed to make it to at least one of those. NYC is not going to work for me now and I so want to catch one of these celebration shows.
Yeeehaaaaaaaaw!
Lafayette
ParticipantYep, three shows is enough for me.
HA! John is no stranger to having things thrown at him. I’ve heard in interviews he has taken beer bottles to the head early in his career, one even knocking him out, I believe.

Stoger, do you count shows? Are you ready to celebrate some type of jubilee?
What’s for dinner while you wait?

Fantasy moment: How cool would it be if Ms. Williams tonight covered Dylan’s “Boots of Spanish Leather” ?
8)Phew (wipes brow.) I read “fantasy moment” and was very happy to read you are pining for a Dylan cover and not the cheerleader with pom poms dressed in burnt orange, eerily resembling a member we will not mention. 😯
Has Lu ever covered a Dylan tune?

Wow, amazing footage, indeed!
Lafayette
ParticipantOh, good grief, you throw these questions at me and I keep failing the test. I thought it was an Ohio State blanket, I even had a conversation with the gal that brought it, but can’t remember for the life of me anything about that blanket. It was comfortable, though, hanging on the rail. I was straight as an arrow, too. Johnny does that to me, I guess.
I almost forgot about the one photographer. I somehow started talking to him about Lu, and he told me he had listened to “Sweet Old World” on the way over to the venue. I just had to relay my Lu story and her playing “Lafayette” at the Covington show. He was truly genuine in his response as he thought it was the coolest thing…
The other thing I forgot to mention is someone (or two) in the crowd was showing John some love. Midway through his set a beer carton with a few empties flew across the rail and into the pit area, and then as he was leaving the stage a beer bottle was thrown, plopping right behind him as he was exiting. Ay yi yi.
I have to say, Dylan fans rule. They were in line very early for all three shows I attended.
