I asked Guy about it and he seemed surprised that I actually noticed, but it was there, plain for all to see, in Manchester!   ::)

Bob played just one song on the electric guitar
last night which was superb, but I can't for the
life of me remember which one. I know it was during
the first half of Bobs set.
Can anyone help?

During first show in Glasgow he just played his keyboard and his harmonica, the rest of the songs, he sung them standing without any instrument.
You might get lucky, now and then

My question has now been answered. :)

As this is my 1st post on the site, I'd like to offer my thoughts on last nights show.

MK and Co, were as usual, excellent. Great to see Mark on his feet and I thought that some of the songs played were awesome. I've never heard Cleaning My Gun, rich and bluesy and Hill Farmers Blues was brilliant. All in all having seen Mark on every tour since 1991, his playing is certainly not getting any poorer and the 2 new songs were just typical MK.

However, having never seen BD, I was a bit anxious regarding all the comments about his vocal capibilities and it seems as is if maybe I heard different to others who went last night. My partner and I sat in the 3rd row of Block AB and I seriously could not understand a single word the man said virtually all night. I thought his voice was raspy at best and he shouted sometimes which did'nt help things either. His band however' were brilliant and I'm sure that we would probably would have enjoyed some of the songs more if we could have understood what he was saying. but BOTH acts got a great reception.

I guess I'm like everyone else now just looking forward to the next album and tour, lets hope it's soon.

What a great gig last night! Mark and the band were on top form as usual. Great choice of songs, and highlights for me Hillfarmer blues and marbletown  8) but loved the whole set including the new songs!

I also have not seen Bob Dylan live before and i agree that some of the songs i couldn't make out what BD was singing. But having said that, the whole band were unbelievable! ;D
