I’ve seen thousands of concerts in my life, but have only seen Dylan about 20 times or so. Part of that was because he did not tour during the early part of the 1970s, the Rolling Thunder Revue never came through Philadelphia, and neither did the Gospel tour.
But since 1981, I’ve seen Dylan pretty much every year or so, and as the Never Ending Tour continues to roll on some 30 years plus, I’m hoping to get the opportunity for many years to come.
Here are my rankings, personal anecdotes and capsule summaries of the shows I’ve seen, along with whatever paraphernalia I picked up along the way, including ticket stubs, T-shirts, posters, and local reviews.
I hope you enjoy, and if you were at the show too, please add your own comments as well.
