Bob helped out...
Bob Dylan joined the boys on stage to sing "Stuck Inside Mobile" and stuck around for the rest of the night.
Correction:
Dylan came out for Iko and stayed until Mobile, then came back out for the two encores. I was there.
Recording
I dont personally have it, but you can give a shout out on the Tapers thread if you hav'nt already. I went to the first 2 nights of this run. Everyone was saying how it was the "Hollywood" place and someone would show up. It just happened the night I didnt go. Glad your dad had a great time!Eric
spencer davis sat in for a
spencer davis sat in for a few songs also at this show...
surprise, surprise
To clear it up. Spencer Davis closed the first set and then Dylan came out with them for most of the second set. It was very cool to see Dylan sitting with the Dead again but this time they were doing their own stuff until the Mobile. Dylan clearly looked baffled during the jam in Cassidy, which was great to see. That second set was really cool and unusual for this time. Weir kind of flubs Monkey and the Engineer but as usual no one cares seeing as they hadn't done it in almost 8 years. This show was full of surprises and was a great way to end the first couple of shows (counting the Kaiser shows) of what would be a ripping year.
Star power
My seat was next to Judge Reinholt(I thik that's his name).Wow huh
Everyone had a real good time
Wow! one of the top three shows of 70 I have attended. Spencer Davis sang lead on Gimme' some Lovin' and Dylan sat in for parts of the second set. Dylan felt more comfortable playing structured songs than jams. Very cool mutual respect between artists.
When the going got weird.....
"Yo Bro - they will never play that song...." was the response I got early in the afternoon when asked what they would play tonight....
and that, my friends, was when the going got weird...
FRONT ROW AGAIN
Was blown away when Dylan came out but didnt sing he let Bobby sing Heavens door....also believe spencer davis came out for give me some lovin...
Dylan just wanted to hang out in the background
I was recording this show. When they came out for the second set you hear me say Bob Dylan just walked on stage. Bobby kept trying to get Dylan to sing during Stuck Inside of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again but he didn't want to. Finally, Bobby pretended to forget the lyrics so Dylan took over.
