Declan McManus and Robert Zimmerman on Stage
My buddy Dennis and I saw and heard Bob Dylan and Elvis Costello Tuesday night. “Live on stage!” as the ticket says. The seats weren’t cheap, but the second row never is.
Costello was in fine form for his 45-minute warm-up to Dylan, and his voice was in stunningly good shape. Dylan’s voice, sorry to say, wasn’t in such good shape. But still, he put on a great show, with an eclectic selection of songs, and an absolutely top-notch band.
Dylan has been bitten by the marketing bug, because the ticket came with this promo badge and a lanyard to wear it…
…and also part of the package was — to my astonishment — a real, working, totally analog pocket watch in a leather pouch!
