Review by Christian
Sursee was great! My expectacions were high after the milan conert, but the
wheater forecast said that it would be could and rainy. After 3 hours of work in
the morning, Alex a good friend of mine, who is not a great Dylan fan, but I
think the greatest George Michael Fan in Austria, was there to pick me up at my
work in Innsbruck and drive me to Sursee together with my friend Hans and his
partner Elfie from the Zillertal in Tirol. First we drove to Luzern, a really
nice city at Vierwaldstätter Lake. After a walk through the city, where we met
Charlie Sexton and George Recelie in front of the Beat the Street Tour Bus, we
were very happy, and against the wheater forecast the sky suddenly turned blue
from dark black. We drove to Sursee and eyerything seemed perfect. The wheather,
the people and after we entered we realised that it was really a great outdoor
venue. I think there were about 8.000 people and the mood was really good. Bob
startet with LSPPH, which I heard two days before in Milan. It was O.K., but i
dreamed of hearing Gonna change my way of thinking. Dont Think Twice was really
good, so I got relaxed. Things have changed followed and I can say this is
really a great live song nowadays. Ramona was a big surprise and really lovely
performed. Beyond here lies nothing is the ultimate live song from TTL, it was
fantstic. Then came one of my all time favorits, Make you feel my love. This is
one of Bobs best songs ever written, my emotions were near to explode and I was
able to enjoy the song to the fullest. TDTD was rocky, TAIB was very harmonic
and then a really funny Jolene followed. People of all ages around me were
dancing and this was really a fantastic moment. Then came Hollis Brown and there
was silence. Great performance from Bob. Highway was a crowd pleaser as usual,
Hard rain with a very good vocal performance. Thunder rocked and then came Thin
man, which is I think the strongest Bob Dylan and his 'Band performance in these
days. It made me breathless. The encores LARS, AATWT and BITW were fantastic,
and all people around me were really happy.
Thank you Bob, now I am hoping for a fall European Tour to see Bob in Austria,
Germany or Switzerland again, maybe in my hometown Innsbruck to come close to my
30 th Dylan show. ( I am at 27 shows) Thanks again for your fantastic work Bill,
I really hope for some more years with Bob on Tour and your unique web site.
