watching Bob Dylan perform was like seeing 68-year-old Brigitte Bardot in a bikini.

used to be great, is just a little pathetic and sad.





he's still good, it's just not the same. i would be one of the people at the london 1965 tour saying that he sold out, it was a bunch of racket.

Let Your Loss Be Your Lesson


Let Your Loss Be Your Lesson (Robert Plant & Alison Krauss)


Let Your Loss Be Your Lesson

"Once I had myself a good woman
But I just didn't treat her right
I was always leaving
Livin' a party life

True love was waiting for me
I was much too blind to see
Till she told me she would leave me
I said that's all right with me

Oh now she's gone
Realize I lost the best thing there is
And my pride keeps telling me
Let your loss be your lesson

Heaven knows I miss her lovin'
Heaven knows how much I cry
Just to think she had left me
And I know the reason why
I could tell she had been cryin'
It didn't seem to bother me
Cause I know there's no one blinder
Than a fool who just couldn't see

Now she's gone
I realize I lost the best thing there is
And my pride keeps tellin' me
Let your loss be your lesson""


Yes, this is about live and learn. It would be nice if we never made a mistake but this life is to live and to learm. At times we learn from our misstakes( because if we do not learn then we could make the same mistakes over and over again)

The mistakes we make with others...
The mistakes we make with others are hard lessons to learn.
It is hard because not everyone is willing to forgive.
If you fail with friends, family, or in romance...The best thing is to learn and move on...
We need to forgive ourselves and move on...

Thank God-
Everyday is a new day-It is a new start.
Find hope in each new day and see if the next day if you can do better.

At the same time all this was happening, McGuinn also experienced a major epiphany that would have a profound effect on his musical future: The Beatles had exploded onto the American charts. Captivated by their skiffle beat, mellifluous chord progressions, and infectious melodies, he instinctively knew that melding those distinguishing characteristics with his own tried-and-true folk sensibilities and training would yield a pretty unique sound.

"When the Beatles had come out, the folk boom had already peaked," McGuinn notes. "The people who had been into it were getting kind of burned out. It just wasn't very gratifying, and it had become so commercial that it had lost its meaning for a lot of people. So the Beatles kind of re-energized it for me. I thought it was natural to put the Beatles' beat and the energy of the Beatles into folk music. And in fact, I heard folk chord changes in the Beatles' music when I listened to their early stuff like 'She Loves You' and 'I Want To Hold Your Hand.' I could hear the passing chords that we always use in folk music: the G-Em-Am-B kind of stuff. So I really think the Beatles invented folk-rock. They just didn't know it."

Future bands like the Grateful Dead, the Lovin Spoonful, and the Jefferson Airplane went electric because of the Beatles influence. Bob Dylan once remarked when he first heard the Beatles that they were heading the direction music was heading.

Fri 24 Apr – Bob Dylan

This Bob Dylan gig was the second concert I've seen at the Sheffield Arena. The first was Queen + Paul Rodgers last October. The two shows probably couldn't have been more different. For starters, I felt like I was miles away from Queen+PR when I saw them. Despite the big screens and fancy light show, there was no denying that Brian May was a tiny ant running around with a speck of a guitar. I was within yards of Dylan on Friday night.

Dylan doesn't go in for flashy lights every song. We had low, medium and bright depending on the mood of the songs and off between them. A few times we had simple patterns rendered in white light projected onto the black walls, such as the stars Bob swore to forsake one of the handful of times that he ventured to the front of the stage to play a raw and heartrending Boots of Spanish Leather. As he barks "How can, how can you ask me again?", I can feel the sound waves trembling through the floor and travel past my feet all the way to my head where they'll ring forevermore.

I'm not going to say Queen+PR were predictable when I saw them, but I did know more or less most of what they would do and that it would sound a lot like the album or previous live versions. Now Dylan, of course, is famous for reworking his songs and surprising people with his set list. I don't think there were that many people, if anyone at all, who expected Bob to walk on stage and jump straight in with Cat's In The Well and to follow it with It's All Over Now Baby Blue. Now, that song was so different from the familiar version that it took me most of the first vese of the song to clock which one it was, even though it's one of my favourites.

Before I went to the show, I was warned that the shows he'd done recently weren't very good, that he mumbles so much you can't identify the song, that he doesn't talk. He didn't mumble too much, in my opinion. It was only during Things Have Changedthat it took me forever to spot the song, but that's probably because I'm not very familiar with it. He did lose a few words towards the end of It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding), so we did get a couple of lines that came out "nuh ru-ru-ruh mu hu na guillotine!", but the fact that he played that one at all earns him the brownie points to get away with it.

The fact that he played some of my older favourites of course made me very happy. He can only ever play some favourites because he's written so many great songs over the years and not even he can cram them into just two hours. Then there were newer favourites like Love Sick, Make You Feel My Love and Spirit on the Water and the surprises in Cats in the Well and Highway 61 Revisited. I wouldn't trade this as a first time set-list with anyone. Unless we start getting into the possibilities of time travel, in which case that's a different story...

How could people complain about the sound? And how could people walk out before the end? I thought we'd left that sort of silliness to the mid-sixties when bereft folkies were weeping with frustration over Bob's nerve to start playing an electric guitar in public. The difference this time is that people mourn the fact that he doesn't play guitar at his show. It seems times really have changed.

I would never think of complaining that Bob only played guitar the one time in two hours, or his lack of mobility or the absence of big screens because he was on my side of the stage and I got to watch him dance about as he expertly went at the keyboard and sang in a mostly-understandable way. He seemed to be enjoying himself a lot and I think it showed in the quality of the music and the fantastic show that he gave us on Friday. And I honestly don't think I'm just saying that because it was my first time.
